Brave Talk and Jitsi Feed User Data to Oracle
Oracle is a data broker that is poised to spread the implementation of a Chinese-style digital prison
As more and more people become aware of data trafficking by Big Tech companies, they have been turning to services and providers that promise them they are protecting their personal information.

This is why you need to host your own servers for services like this (vocal / video calls / social interactions) :
Indeed, that would be best practice. Do you?
i need guidance on selecting what hardware i need to buy.
Cost wise, I recomend renting a VPS with monero in a country not part of 5 eye / 9 eye and privacy friendly.
If you live in such country, and have acces to an internet connection not linked to your ID, you can then buy some hardware.
But you'll need then to calculate the electric bill associated by running it h24.
Services like vocal / Jitsi / Matrix don't need huge ressource if kept confidential (sub 100 people using it)
So better an energy efficient machine (with low power consumption and low idle power consumption) than a beafy overpowered computer that will cost you a lot in the long run
