Does it even make sense to care about privacy?
  • yeah the android thing is a huge privacy hole. getting a custom OS like Lineage, Calyx, or Graphene should be in everyone's top 3 first things to do. it will plug a lot of holes.

    dont worry. this step isnt super difficult, definitely not a losing battle. just take it one step at time! i did the same, and i feel like im in a good place now, so it's definitely doable :)

  • Does it even make sense to care about privacy?
  • Is this about browsers or about privacy in general?

    But your privacy should be tailored to your specific threat model and desires. Or, you can choose to be private as possible while keeping your convenience, and slowly be more private. You should not just be hardcore and right away. This will leave you feeling hopeless.

    As far as browsers, i recommend Librewolf or mullvad browser, or Brave for Chromium. You do not need to use TOR for everything. A good quality VPN like mullvad vpn or proton is more than sufficient for most people.

  • Blocking app access to the internet
  • it seems like you merely need to disable the "Block connections without VPN".

    Then in your android settings there should be a toggle to deny network access to certain apps in the android permission settings. so the apps that are split tunneled you can just deny or allow network

  • iPhone is listening
  • As long as you are running closed source Operating Systems, they can listen to whatever they want, and scan whatever they want that's happening on your screen. Wake up people. Facepalm.

  • Self-hosted rotating proxy

    I am looking for a solution. I'm thinking of a locally hosted socks5 proxy like TOR has, but instead of TOR, this self hosted proxy can be configured to rotate through other remote proxies that I have access to

    is there anything like this?
