There are rootkits for Linux and it's becoming more common. There are also all kinds of javascript exploits in your browser. Firefox or Chrome...
I think it's exactly what average desktop users need, if it's easy enough. Most people willy nilly surf the internet, download things, log into...
Wow, that would be amazing. I look forward to seeing how it works out.
For what it's worth, used systems, not even that old, on eBay can be purchased ridiculously cheap. Once I realized this I never bought a new...
As mirimir said, it seems like his approach seeks to address the problem in a different manner. Rather than trying to create a highly non-unique...
Yes, I've seen many of those other discussions, I've just never been that satisfied with what seem to be some of the generally accepted...
@mirimir Yes that's seems like a good alternative strategy. @noone_particular I realize my argument was entirely hypothetical. Thanks for the...
mirimir, I know this has been presented frequently in this forum as a way to think through the question of how location effects VPN choice. I do...
@noone_particular Thanks. I think that's a good analysis of the complexities of the issues. I do wonder, hypothetically, if it must be true...
Yeah, Foxgloves did nothing for me. I think the most effective thing to do is disable javascript and Flash, since those are leaking the most...
Adding to the confusion, I get different results, when I check at different times, even though I've changed nothing about my browser. Anyway, at...
I know this should be obvious and incredibly simple, but I keep having trouble wrapping my head around which is better on panopticlick and higher...
In the interst of not contributing to the further off topic slide of the thread (as you and JRViejo suggest), I won't respond, other than to say...
I agree with RollingThunder also. I think it's also worth keeping in mind that we do not all necessarily agree one what's "bad." And we probably...
What's LE?
Has anyone created a pseudonyme for their own consciousness? After reading A Scanner Darkly, I became concerned that the hemispheres of my brain...
I guess this pretty much answers my questions: https://www.bestvpn.com/blog/5539/data-retention-and-vpn-logging-in-the-united-states/ Sounds...
But, isn't a VPN like an ISP? So doesn't that exempt them in the U.S. from the DMCA? If I'm right about that (and maybe I'm not), is a VPN/ISP...
If you read the already existing threads on this (which I don't think are really hundreds) you'll see after a while some consistent...
But what about legitimate video streaming? YouTube? Hulu? People want access to those things, that don't have DMCA type issues, and they're high...
I think starting with 4.3 Android has a privacy feature that lets you selectively disable permissions like this. Called AppOps. But it may not be...
That's correct for Linux in general, but it sounds like Qubes doesn't need (or use) a swap partition at all, if I'm getting it. Each VM has within...
@Balthazar Yeah, I know what you mean about there being a limit between how much security and privacy one wants and how much time one wants to...
I don't think people should be overly confident, depending on their security needs. It's not unheard of that security bugs go unnoticed in open...
I don't know if it syncs with iOS, but I think Zoho probably includes a calendar in their online office suite and are better for privacy than...
Separate names with a comma.
