Rule of thumb on the Internet, if you can’t see how it’s payed for (subscriptions, ads, donations…) then you probably pay with your personal data.
Especially true for apps and games. “Play totally free, no annoying adds or in-app purchases” means “Here is a trojan horse pretending to be a game while farming every possible information from your device to sell to the highest bidder”.
i have an alter ego called Nunya Business
email: someone@somewhere.com
he uses a VPN when connected to public wifi
My email is whatever shit protonpass comes up with when I generate a random alias. Phone number is 3334445566 Name is: lol no Gender is undisclosed DoB is January 1st of the first year I can select. Otherwise, 1900 And income is 1.
There, free WiFi.
I usually use:
Email - nope@nah.com
Name - Nah Nope
Gender - prefer not to say
DoB - same as you
Phone - just random digits, or if I’m feeling spicy the phone number of a guy I used to be buddies with who fucked me over
Income - never been asked for this yet, probably go with something outlandish…like 1
What would stop you from using random, invented data?
Don’t use random, invented data. That’s wrong. Use the real data of a ceo or other executive from a company that spammed you. Or if you have the time find out who owns the mall and use their information.
But… that requires the internet to research
That’s so evil and so amazing
You wouldn’t just go on the internet and lie would you?
Walmart does similar now, though they don’t ask all that much. The bogus account I set up is…
Email: irrelevant@dispostable.com
Password: Walmart1
Name: Anonymous Human
Enjoy your anonymous free WiFi at Walmart haha!
I like noneof@yourbusiness.com, same for first/last name. Only problem is I’m not the only one so sometimes it’s already taken.
Fake info, then VPN.
