Just a small heads up; ive noticed a uptick in links spread on Reddit, 4chan and even here to collaborative playlist from youtube, spotify and similar with very non or very few followers. All coming from new accounts.
Its a common way to fish for your personal data. They will make a new list and post it in only certain posts/threads and wait for you to subscribe with your account.
An easy way to protect yourself is by setting your phone or pc to open links in a second browser where you are not logged into anything. Set it to delete cookies on exit.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

This is what Tor was made for. Political dissidents. They probably just didn’t expect for us to diss on the West and not the designated evil countries.
I think it was originally made (by the Amerikan government) so the NSA and the like could access the Internet without revealing their location, and they released it publicly to increase the number of nodes and users. However, the current developers certainly seem to work on it for the sake of dissidents (as you said)
