you already installed the apps. they've already scarfed a bunch of data likely. bad choice.
anyway just make sure you dedicate a VPN connection to them and block local network traffic in your vpn app (i know mullvad has this feature).
mullvad browser which is a TOR browser fork, seems to defeat fingerprint.com per-session.
brave strict fingerprint protection on its own actually does not even do this afaik
If it wasn't for all the survivalists and conspiracy theorists and paranoid software devs and whistleblowers and tech journos and anti-authoritarian content creators and anti-surveillance artists and even ordinary joes like me who just want to use online services withouth the digital equivalent of the weird kid in class who stood over your shoulder and watched everything you did (x1000), things could and would be much worse.
this. this is the privacy truth of the year right here. shout out to all the insane people. we dont deserve them.
this is really cool, thanks for the info. federated or decentralized git is long overdue
educating is hardly an option anymore. the only way to get people to do anything is to brainwash them
App Sandboxes in Graphene? can someone tell me about this? is this a new feature?
another reason why centralization sucks and distributed/decentralized messengers should rise to the top over time.
i wish people would stop viewing this guy as someone who is a guru extreme online privacy.
Bazzell is good at one thing primarily, and that is Real Life privacy/hiding, when one's adversaries on nongovernmental. that is his specialty and what he should be respected for.
Bazzell is not a huge expert in thwarting mass surveillance or thwarting nation-state adversaries in technology. otherwise he wouldnt be giving recommendations that involve closed sourced software or cloudflare lol.
He is a practical guy and knows enough to keep his clientele's privacy for the types of adversaries he is accustomed to going up against (not nation state or federal gov)
there are people on Monero Market who will do it for you. SMS pool and Text Verified are also viable.
i don't have any info for you but please do this, this is the kind of thing we NEED, on an even larger scale. If you succeed, you should make a post about it.
For alternatives, I recommend to use a community-ran Gitea instance. Project Segfault runs one.
Also check out Forgejo, it's another git software. Disroot has an instance.
All of the suggestions here are good but I would not put too much stock in where you get your DNS from if your reasons are for privacy. If anything, using anything beyond your ISP's DNS could decrease your privacy, because now you are giving info to 2 providers (DNS and ISP)
No matter what DNS server you use, your ISP can see every single IP you connect to and doing reverse lookups is extremely trivial for them of course.
My advice is to use a good VPN provider. Any reputable one will also provide its own DNS servers as well.
That's kind of funny, to be honest
when it comes to server-side software, FOSS is of little importance unless you are self hosting. there is zero way for you to verify, unlike client software.
