I will post my thoughts later tonight about the big question I posted above ... but, in the meantime I'm interested to hear your thoughts on the topic, whatever they may be!

Wow! So many sophisticated, selfless, thoughtful, kind hearted, super smart, technical answers to tonight's questions!!

Who ever said we were lacking in technical Patriots, haven't seen the group we have together on this channel! 🤩 Amazing feedback, everyone! 🥳 I will add my thoughts here in a minute ... !!

Tonight, I asked you why you think 'big tech' designed the only two popular Mobile Operating Systems, Android and iOS, in a way that puts Silicon Valley first, and America last. Your answer was clear: greed, and big tech's desire for power and control.

Sadly, I have to say, I agree with you. They were showing their hand for a long time, then the floodgates opened, with deplatforming, censorship and other abuses, and the way America sees them will never be the same. So where do we go from here? (continued)

First of all, I'll say that the ideas I share here are just that ... my ideas. Others will have ideas how to fix things, too. What we can be sure of, though, is that things are so out of balance in terms of influence and control over technology in America between the political left and right, it's dramatic, to say the least, and needs to be fixed, urgently. Thats something we can agree on, it's the recurring theme of this group.

I will offer some original thought to this conversation, that you may have heard me talk about before. There's a myth that technological innovation needs to culminate in 'the latest and the greatest, the highest-performance benchmark, fastest 'this-or-that', in the competitive sense. It's something the elitists on the left have pushed throughout the entire history of technology. There was more justification for this attitude as tech was evolving, hitting important milestones, than there is today, for example: The first images delivered over the World Wide Web. The first animated graphics. The era of the first doubing, quadrupling, of mass storage (Remember the wonder of the 10MB hard drive?) When these things were happening, the 'always-competitive' attitude towards technology was more justifiable. We're long past that. Once we hit the point where streaming video could be processed while enabling a comfortable desktop web surfing session, further advancements did not have such an impact on the average desktop user, at least not to the point which would justify the several-thousand-dollar premium necessary for consumers to pay to always have the "latest and greatest" hardware. Same can be said for programming and software development. If you haven't programmed a computer, my point here is, technology, across the board, did most of what it needed to do for most desktop users, about ten years ago. And that is a good place for us to look back to, as we pick up the pieces and think about what needs to be done in America to even things out in our digital society, again. (Just my opinions, the opinions of one computer guy, folks.)

We've done a lot with this Telegram group so far. We've educated a ton of people about Free and Open Source Software, and Linux. That's important. If you're following, you know by now, it's real, it's great stuff, and it truly will set you free and put you on a new path. There's a reason I started there...like I've said in my audio presentations, we needed to start with the part that would make the biggest impact to your technology, first ... what would be the "hardest part" of the equation of achieving Digital Freedom for most Patriots..... getting away from Microsoft Windows, in to an Operating System that would give you your freedom back. For now, we can achieve that with Linux. By our calculations, several thousand of you have switched over to Linux now, following our suggestions, and we have heard very little negative feedback as a result. Conversley, we receive many messages every day from people whose lives are being changed as they re-discover technology and what it feels like to be in control again, away from 'big tech'. So yes. It is a great start and preview of what is possible ... (continued)

In terms of the imbalance of influence between the political right and left with technology in America, it's dire at the moment, folks. The left had such a head start, it can be viewed as almost impossible to change. So with the left controlling almost the entire conversation online, let's stop and think for a moment. Who were the first Patriots to stand up and do something about it? Well, you know who they were. Whether you like them or not, because personalities , infighting, competition, or whatever, happens among these groups. But let's give credit where it's due. Just my opinion!! Here's a few people I have a ton of respect for, regardless of whatever metrics people judge them by "at this moment," because such judgments are often fickle and meaningless compared to what bold action and commitment means when viewed through the lens of history.

First, I will say, God Bless Andrew Torba, I don't really know him, but I watched what he had the courage to do. Talk about strength of character, values and principles, running headfirst in to the line of fire, against all odds, in the name of Freedom of Speech. I salute Andrew Torba for his courage.

There is a group of 'big thinker' Patriots who manage to get in to a lot of controversy, and have been limited in terms of their ability to build the technology necessary to deliver an effective social media platform. And one of them, I guess his name is "Saul," seems to get in a lot of conflicts and even went off on me once in a private group we were in on Twitter, chewed me out for no apparent reason, and sort of made a fool out of himself. But all of that aside, I have so much respect for these guys. Wictor, Saul, and whoever else is involved in the effort, at "Quodverum.com," I wholeheartedley respect their efforts in the field of technology. I am no one to judge them. But thought I'd say it anyways as I'm writing out what I really think about this topic.

In my opinion, what Jason Miller did in founding and developing GETTR, as a first time social media entrepreneur, is among the most professional of such efforts so far, and is to be commended. I say that as a former Social Media founder myself, who did manage to grow a community to 40 million active users. To the extent anyone cares what I think, I think they have a bright future.

Taken from the standpoint of raw technical skill, I remain extremley impressed by the work done by the group behind Odysee.com , and related efforts, another great example of what is possible when Patriots get it right with tech.

There are other names that I could go on to mention. But the point I'm making here is, each one of the people or groups I mention in these posts tonight, has boldly stood up in the name of Freedom, the United States Constitution, what our country stands for, and given it their best shot, against the naysayers and detractors. What does that require, more than anything else? Willpower. Devotion. Faith. Strength of character. To them, and to every individual tech entrepreneur who maybe I didn't hear of, who may have launched some kind of effort so far, and is wondering if it's worthwhile, I salute all of you tonight, for being on the right side of what will prove to be a transformative time in American history.

Patriots know that big changes are happening below the surface among the political underpinnings of our country. Technology is a bigger part of society than it has ever been at any time and will continue to grow. "Opting-out" gives the enemy an easy advantage. Instead of opting-out, I encourage everyone to lean-in, and get more involved. Exactly what we've been doing in this group of something like 40k brave Patriots , all whom are interested in technology, or they would not have put up with 90 days of nonstop posts about Free and Open Source Software, Microprocessors, RAM Memory, Richard Stallman, Linus Torvalds, and the Linux Operating System!! 🤣

So what do we do to take it back. For real. Here's what we do. We rebuild it, from the ground up. We get people who know technology to rebuild it. Going back to a theme posted here earlier tonight. It doesn't have to be the latest and greatest. It has to be built by people we trust. That's the key, friends. Technology changes a lot, and fast. People don't change much. Human factors, trust, are priceless. We are at the precipice of so many things changing in technology. If conservatives don't pick it up and start running with it, we're leaving it wide open for them to try to "hack" our society and our country on behalf of the foreign governments they so eagerly take money from. The imbalance between political right and left , in technology, needs to change. Let's change it.

Our phones don't have to be the best. They just have to work in a way that can be trusted. Our operating system doesn't have to be the latest and greatest. As a starting point, it needs to be secure, and do the practical things we need, in a way that can be trusted. We can get there, and we can get there sooner than anyone may have thought.

I've said it many itmes -- Until American Patriots control Operating Systems, we will not be safe. Any 'freedom of speech' website can be shut down while it's running on a phone with Android, or a laptop with Windows. Doesn't matter what the 'site policies' are, where the servers are, or any of that. What matters is who controls the machine at the system level. That is the last stand. And that's what we're fixing in this group.

By learning about Operating Systems, we're fixing the part of the equation they didn't think we could fix ... they never imagined we'd have a group like this one. But we do. As we gain momentum, every week now, a bunch of Patriots can be found in our chats, on our message boards, with success stories about leaving Windows, installing Linux, and achieving Digital Freedom. You are training, re-training, and taking the time to achieve digital self-responsibility. It is moving to watch everyone's progress in this group. Beyond words. They may seem like small steps, but they demonstrate what's possible with courage and motivation. And that's exactly what will be needed to achieve the next, more important step: This group is developing an Open Source Operating System built by American Patriots, due for release in Q1, 2022. When we get there, as far as I know, it will be the first time such a project has been undertaken, in this way, in American history.

As we arrive at the three-month anniversary of this Telegram channel, I look forward to hearing from more of you who are eager to lean-in to the technology, to train, or re-train, to help us with our efforts to build our forthcoming software project release, Mobile Linux.

Thanks for your interest in my Telegram channel. Here, we teach Patriots about technology.

Pull up your control-panel and study with us a while. You'll learn something! And, while you're at it, you can help us Save America.

@Jeffrey_Peterson

Friends, we received hundreds of your emails this morning, from Patriots wanting to help, to volunteer time, resources and get involved with the Freedom-focused Operating System project this group is developing for the new year.

Some of you are writers wanting to write articles. People offering to do product testing. Check for bugs. Concerned citizens wanting to help us with research. Truly amazing to see. It is heart warming to see everyone's desire to make things better about the imbalance of power with 'big tech' dominating the digital landscape in our country at the moment. Heart warming indeed to see your concern. I truly mean it. We are going through your emails as quickly as we can and will be responding throughout the day. We thank you for your interest, we really have a special group of Patriots together here!

I wonder if censorship at the operating system level is going to come sooner than later?
