I kinda stop using these services after a while. I want the recommendation algorithm.

headroom ,

I don't want to do all that just to watch a few videos a day.

headroom ,

that said, I can't stand having someone stalk and monetize your every move

Well, they can't. I have an anonymus account only for youtube that I access only over the VPN with adblockers.

headroom ,

Is it necessary, compared to the measures I mentioned above?

That product is trash but how is what you're doing helping with phishing?

headroom ,

Ye mullvad uses their blocklists but does not provide the features mostly listed in the security tab. I still don't get how dot and doh are relevant with phishing.

headroom ,

There isn't much of a discussion because there are like 3 acceptable alternatives. Nord isn't one of them btw.

headroom ,

there is already many resources on the topic

headroom ,

I literally said the opposite. Please stop pinging me with your brain-dead bullshit. Thanks.

Why are there so many people using Linux for work. Are you using your personal machines for work? If so why? Or do your company allow installing whatever OS you want on the work machine?

headroom ,

Yep. Windows or Mac. Typical corporate IT spyware isn't even available on Linux.

headroom ,

If they're going to force me to use Windows or Mac, I'd much rather Windows than Mac. Piece of shit of an "operating system".

headroom ,

Meh, when you have a chip that powerful and that energy efficient, trying something in wearable computing is a no brainer imo.

Telegram is giving away FREE Premium subscriptions! All they need from you is to use your cell phone as a relay to text out their OTP codes! And the recipient of the OTP sees your phone number! What could POSSIBLY go wrong with this deal?...

People in the privacy community need to get over the
unrealistic dream that regular people will adopt Matrix when we can't even get them to use Signal. The only way Matrix will have mass adoption is through getting a lot of corporate clients. Then the workers might choose to use it personally too after being familiar with it.

Finally deleted my LinkedIn account!

After putting my account into "hibernation" for the past few weeks, I finally closed it. But I'm still looking for work. Thankfully I can still find positions (SRE and software dev) by just going directly to the company's site and finding a Jobs page.

Good luck to everyone else out there looking for work!

I keep LinkedIn telling myself it's necessary to find a job but I don't think I've ever gotten a job from LinkedIn, now that I think about it.

I don't get people claiming stock iPhone is private. We literally have very little idea. It's a closed system. It's private if you take Apple's word but all the other manufacturers also have similar claims. Why trust Apple and not them?

On top of that you end up locked into their ecosystem, unable to use most FOSS applications or have cut down versions of them because daddy Apple didn't like some features.

headroom ,

Yes iPhones are secure but not private. The two are related but different concepts. I'm not sure what exactly your friend is referring to though.

headroom ,

Do you need to externally encrypt the data or at least you the password field when syncing with syncthing? I mean, the traffic is encrypted already but still doesn't feel right.

headroom ,

Don't use a VPN.

headroom ,

The only purpose of vpns is to hide your ip address, which is already dynamic and is shared by many people or access location restricted content.
