yeah, no cell phone or any other "smart" device, no Alexa, no cameras in my TV etc.

Right on brother, did you know that Apple patented a TV screen that is the camera, the whole screen is the camera not just one little spot that can be covered with a piece of electrical tape.

“If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting
a foreign enemy. Of all the enemies to public liberty, war is, perhaps,
the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops
the germ of every other... No nation could preserve
its freedom in the midst of continual warfare."

~ James Madison, Chief Architect of the Constitution and 4th U.S. President

"The Americans are forcing even their friends to becoming their enemies. It is curious that the Americans, who calculate so carefully on the possibilities of military victory, do not realize that in the process they are incurring deep psychological and political defeat. The image of America will never again be the image of revolution, freedom and democracy,
but the image of violence and militarism."

~ Vietnamese Buddhist Leader,
from Martin Luther King Jr's speech, Beyond Vietnam, 1967

“Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this
consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the
triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; 'tis dearness
only that gives everything its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper
price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed, if so celestial
and article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated."

~Thomas Paine, Common Sense, that sparked the American Revolution

"This we know. The earth does not belong to man;
man belongs to the earth ...
Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it.
Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself."
