I like to use services i can donate to, which are thrustworhty and don't have advertisements. I think, our society would greatly profit from this financial model. Therefore, comercial providers are rare here. Therefore, please donate to those projects, especially if you use them much. Since ages, i have maintained this list of tech collectives. Especially, because i always forget the names of some services in here. I decided to make this list public and donate it to the [public domain](./LICENSE.md). Patches welcome. Also, i want to encourage you to go to your favorite project using for instance the mailinglist feature of google groups and suggest them one of these alternatives. **Please donate to the services you use! Even 1 euro/month is helpful.** #### VPN * [aktivix.org](https://aktivix.org/), activistic #### demoticker * [systemli.org](https://www.systemli.org/service/ticker.html), activistic *
