The Privacy Iceberg

This is original content. AI was not used anywhere except for the bottom right image, simply because I could not find one similar enough to what I needed. This took around 6 hours to make.

(I tried my best)

The background is an iceberg with 6 levels, denoting 6 different levels of privacy.

The tip of the iceberg is titled “The Brainwashed” with a quote beside it that says “I have nothing to hide”. The logos depicted in this section are:

The surface section of the iceberg is titled “As seen on TV” with a quote beside it that says “This video is sponsored by…”. The logos depicted in this section are:

An underwater section of the iceberg is titled “The Beginner” with a quote beside it that says “I don’t like hackers and spying”. The logos depicted in this section are:

A lower section of the iceberg is titled “The Privacy Enthusiast” with a quote beside it that says “I have nothing I want to show”. The logos depicted in this section are:

An even lower section of the iceberg is titled “The Privacy Activist” with a quote beside it that says “Privacy is a human right”. The logos depicted in this section are:

The lowest portion of the iceberg is titled “The Ghost”. There is a quote beside it that has been intentionally redacted. The images depicted in this section are:

    Its like (actually literally) installing Linux on your router instead of its little corporate steal-your-data software. It allows your old router to have all kinds of modern features and full-blown control. My netgear orbi system was dying. I don’t know what the hell was happening to it, but everything was super slow and clunky and netgear quit supporting it a few years ago. I thought I was going to have to get a new expensive mesh router system. But instead the nerds here told me I could probably install OpenWRT on them and it turns out they were right. My router was one of an expansive list of routers that is compatible with it. It was tricky to install, but I used AI to guide me through it. And now my shit’s super snappy, fast, uses the latest security protocols. Turns out I can crank my radios up higher than normal and get really, really good coverage and really high speed all the time. It’s for real this one weird trick that tech companies don’t want you to know about.
