  "textContent": "I personally don’t recommend you to base your decision to move to another country just because it offers you better privacy because there’s a chance that the best country in the world privacy-wise may end up in the future becoming the worst. What would happen if you spend uncountable hours learning and researching a country’s culture and language just to realise it’s going to roll out Age Verification or some random bullshit? I can’t predict the future, but better be safe than sorry.\n\nAs @pg.user mentioned…\n\npg.user:\n\n> there are no safe havens\n\n…and its just a matter of time those governments tackle down privacy for everyone since privacy it’s being abused unfortunately and on a government standpoint they’ll take it as a threat without giving a shit about the importance of privacy. But this is just my POV, where I believe all governments are the same BS, but some of them are just ticking bombs without a timer; some of them will _explode_ sooner or later.\n\npg.user:\n\n> The latter one is also known as a beloved place for hosting some really shady stuff which can be cautiously interpreted as an indirect confirmation that it’s privacy stance is legit\n\nSo to buckle everything up, prioritise moving to a country that fulfills you personally, because there’s no such thing like _which is the best country_ but _which one is the less bullshittier_ (and this is not just in terms of privacy). I mean, just look at Privacy Guides being hosted in the US, one of the worst countries in terms of privacy AFAIK. ¯_(ツ)_/¯\n\nSo keep it chill mate! Life’s too short to worry about it.",
