I’m a little anxious putting one on my car
Putting any sticker on your car is a great way to give free information out to people about yourself. Don’t give out free information to people about yourself.
You could say the same thing for literally just existing. Better kill yourself or someone might find something out about you!
I hope it’s unnecessary for me to say I’m simply making a point and not ernestly telling you to kys.
My point was more about blatantly advertising more personal details that somebody wouldn’t learn just by seeing the color of your tshirt.
I am into OSINT so maybe my view here is a little more paranoid or biased.

Bumper stickers are… incredibly weird to me. Why? Literally.
Ive never seen a car sticker that wasn’t stupid as hell .
I had seen a GNU bumper sticker, even without the message they have a cool logo
That is a rockin logo!
I have stickers from coffeeshops from my travels. I’ve always been against bumper stickers, until my current car. Don’t know why.
Well, my stance is I hate any stickers on a car.
It’s not a good idea to put any sort of identity on your car since people don’t generally think nice things about the drivers they see on the road with them. One of my friends refuses to put a Jesus fish bumper sticker in case she cuts someone off or something and they get mad at God.
I had one on the back of my car that was a T-Rex biting a chunk out of the ichthys symbol. Lasted a lot longer than I thought it would living in the Bible Belt before someone ripped it off. People will definitely take your car decorations personally.
fuck cars, use bikes
This IS the way. !fuckcars
Yes, let me bike to the grocer, and somehow carry home 100lbs+ of food and supplies on my fucking HEAD? What are you even on
Saddlebags and crates for bikes are common. Have you considered smaller, but more frequent, trips to the grocery store?
Not trying to be a dick; I love my bike.
But have you considered the logistics of transporting two 40-pound boxes of cat litter on a bicycle? Even one, absolutely no chance I’m dealing with that.
Also, both my partner and I absolutely hate grocery shopping. Ignoring the litter, I would absolutely not consider going more frequently.
Oh, I wasn’t trying to be a dick either! I’m with you on hating grocery shopping haha
I try to do as much perishable stuff at the farmers market (which is fortunately walking distance) and then do non-perishable as infrequently and in-bulk as possible by car
Makes sense! Usually we only go to the store when we need litter, which is mad heavy. Then we’ll get sole packs of cat food (our spoiled cats eat different nice stuff.)
By that point, even both of us on bikes… it just doesn’t work. Plus we have two cars we love, we just don’t drive then much cuz we’re hermits. Bikes are for fun, cars are for obtain item!
No dummy you take more trips
I love my bike but fuck if imma carry a single 40lb box of cat litter while biking hahaha

cringe.
Depending on where I’m the world you are, there is nothing that can be done. I at least know where I live in the US, I could put a sticker for something like l337x or Ru Tracker and the worst thing that could happen (without any links) is that someone keys off the stickers.
Though I feel like I’d be more likely to be pressured by a police officer to remove the stickers for some bullshit made-up law that those stickers are in fact illegal (despite it only being a logo/name of the website).
Also, just having a sticker might attract attention, but the people whose attention it tracks would need actual proof of anything wrong going on before they actually make a move.
People have been jailed for bumper stickers.
I expect that from Florida and the east/south, but I have yet to see that thing happen here on the upper west coast.
Maybe if it’s just a jolly roger with “*ARRR” under it. Those in the know will understand, for others it’s just a silly pop culture reference. And has plausible deniability (“What? I just really like Pirates of the Caribbean and Sea of Thieves!”).
Yeah this is my thought as well. I see nothing wrong with mostly surface level info for bumper stickers. However, I wouldn’t advertise doing anything against the law or hell, even less popular stuff then most. It unfortunately can single you out for potential vehicle damage or worse.
Cool if the car was downloaded too
Stuff that only a specific group of people understands should be fine. Like this one https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/61546
Any sticker on a car is cringe.
Someone might damage your car bc they don’t believe it’s right and think you’re doing something illegal lmao
That would be quite ironic.
It’s dumb. It draws attention you don’t want to get.
Do it. Put the not-technically-piracy apps on your car. Qbittorrent, sonarr, radarr, jellyfin, etc.
Perfection.
