What I don't understand is why some other VPNs can supposedly start without needing login credentials. We need specifics here. For example,...
I don't recall offhand what's default. The actions that I choose are: Delete Flash cookies on Firefox exit Also delete Flashplayer default...
I'd rather just use BetterPrivacy in Firefox, FWIW.
AFAIK, that's only important if you want to run VPN-only apps at startup. OpenVPN needs admin access to the computer's NICs, which is pretty...
I suspect that xB hired them to write the wiki, and that they inserted some ads. What amazes me is that xB hasn't taken down the wiki, given that...
That's true. AFAIK, geolocation via wireless router MAC address depends on the web browser (or possibly, another app) reporting that information....
OK, fair enough. I do recall that we've discussed that, although not lately (perhaps last year). So, perhaps it's time for another go at it....
@John Bull Upon reflection, I get that you must have meant that they're banging on your computer's software firewall. Page42 and I are...
Any anonymous (or pseudonymous) criticism of this article could be considered ironic, I suppose. OTOH, given that anonymity is rather mainstream...
Well, they don't have your real IP address as long as you connect via Tor or a VPN. However, once they fingerprint a computer, they can link...
This is all just so old-school. For the most part, my physical computers only access the internet for software updates. I use VMs for all email,...
I didn't mean that RetroShare would bypass the VPN. I meant that it probably wouldn't connect through the VPN. Or, at least, it probably won't...
This is pretty much what I'd expect from a Facebook employee.
If the firewall they're banging on is the software firewall running on your computer, you could add a hardware firewall to your ISP connection,...
@truthpatrol Fair enough. I apologize for calling you a troll. It's unfortunate that you didn't get the support that you needed to make xB...
@truthpatrol I don't "look the other way whenever Xerobank doesn't perform as it promises". In the first place, almost without exception, it...
John, please explain what you mean in saying that IP's are accessing your computer. If other computers are really accessing your computer, and...
Things are looking bad re Panama ... http://successquest.info/index.php/topic,727.0.html
So you say. I don't buy it. Even if you weren't a troll then, you're being one now. If you have something useful to contribute, go ahead.
Any bets on who this new troll is?
Well, then, I'm very glad that I don't hear your mind ::)
@truthpatrol You seem pretty familiar with this xB thing for someone with three posts at Wilders. Care to explain?
It's apparently a friend-to-friend (F2F) network that "provides filesharing, chat, messages, forums and channels". Although friends can recommend...
Pidgin + OTR
Enough, already! xB doesn't need all this pretentious and uninformed discussion. I've been guilty, as well, fanning the flames. Who am I to...
Separate names with a comma.
