Apple’s Decision to Kill Its CSAM Photo-Scanning Tool Sparks Fresh Controversy
  • Completely agree. They should follow the Jeffrey Epstein’s link and networks if they have the balls. You don’t need to scan all people’s phone on earth. Well, it includes high profile people, so good luck with that.

    How you can be deanonymized through Tor
  • You can be anonymised in many ways. But, keep in mind that most of of them are sophisticated attacks which require a lot of effort. No organisation on earth has unlimited resources.

    Why does a three letter agency spend this effort for you? Are you a very important target? If yes they can do it. If no, then your threat level is not that high. You don’t need ANONYMITY, you need privacy.

  • Cromite and Vanadium
  • It’s kind of a vulnerability. Afaik, in case of a compromise on a website, it prevents being spread. For me, it’s an important security feature. Actually, it should be for everyone. But still, I use Mull on android activating https only.

  • Tor’s shadowy reputation will only end if we all use it
  • to avoid misunderstanding, I am just stating the ridiculousness of relating Tor to the criminal networks, not some kind of a conspiracy like funded by US organisations. Of course, Tor is almost the only way to anonymity.

  • What are the best zoom alternatives?

    After this announcement, I am planning to reject meetings organised in zoom. But the problem is that it’s really good. So, is there any privacy friendly and viable alternatives to zoom? It does not have to be open source because I nearly tried all alternatives. Your experiences?

    Tor’s shadowy reputation will only end if we all use it
  • It’s funded by the us govt, darpa and American universities. But people won’t look at it just as they do with privacy policies.

    Edit: to avoid misunderstanding, I am just stating the ridiculousness of relating Tor to the criminal networks, not some kind of a conspiracy like funded by US organisations.

  • What 2FA app are you switching to? (iOS)
  • I am undecided btw 2FAS and Ente. 2FAS has an excellent UI, but there is no desktop app. Ente requires an account, but it’s not a problem considering that everything is E2EE and it’s a company with good reputation.

  • Cromite and Vanadium
  • Cromite is a fork, so waiting a bit before using it would be helpful. Vanadium is a good option if you use grapheneos. Even though there are controversies around Brave, it does not affect privacy and security of it. Turn off crypto and other stuff and it’s done.

    Firefox on android does not provide per site isolation. I don’t think it is significant as long as you know what you accept by using it. If you are willing to take this road, then Mull is the browser you are looking for.

    Tutanota vs Proton Mail
  • Bulls*t. What the random YouTubers claim without evidence is also nonsense. It’s remarkable to allege that an open source and audited app is a honeypot. Well, find it guys, it’s open source.

  • Tutanota vs Proton Mail
  • +1 as a Proton unlimited user. Yes, proton has some unfinished products, I mainly purchased it for vpn and email( also SimpleLogin). So others are a bit of extra for me. After some time, I also plan to switch from Bitwarden to proton pass. If macOS client comes, then I will also switch to proton drive.
