Hosts You Can Trust!

Trust, integrity, intent, openness, transparency are all core fundamental principles that become the foundation of all lasting relationships. It starts at home with ourselves, between individuals, family, friends, groups, communities, corporations and governments. It must flow in all directions otherwise no relationship will ever last.

We live in a digital age where our information is more valuable than oil and gold. AI & behavioral psychologists use it so advertisers, businesses and corporate entities use it can sell product & services to drive profit margins. Lobbyists, governments and unelected globalists use it to sell ideologies to control and socially engineer the minds of individuals, groups, societies and nations with greater effect than our ancestors could ever have dreamed of.

The bigger things become and more control over our private and public lives the less they are being trusted by the people simply because actions have forever spoken louder than words. There's less trust in Big Banks, Big Corporations, Big Government, Big Media, Big Oil, Big Pharma, Big Tech and so on.

Nothing is free or private in this world as those so called "free" services all come at a price. It costs billions to run these huge server farms offering you infinite amount of storage space until you die. Yet they are littered with AI bots, farming, selling and censoring information about us and the world around us whilst monitoring, recording and analyzing our every move for profit, manipulation and control over our minds, choices and behaviors. Yet the world has always been this way throughout history, the only difference today is that modern technology offers far more advanced and effective tools in accomplishing this.

Say NO! to ads, AI algorithms, back doors, backhanders, bots, censorship and government hotlines!!

That's A Big Tech Thing! - Not Us Guaranteed!!!

We're dedicated to keeping our prices as low as possible along with supporting our members and their communities. Membership is free but limited and can be increased at any point by upgrading your membership to one of our pre-pay plans. The more revenue we can raise the more we can offer to our members right across the board.

We've already made huge personal & financial sacrifices to develop Locale to get it where it is today with the sole purpose of offering an alternative from the big tech monopolies that either serve their own interests or outrageous profit margins.
