Yeah... Thanks but no thanks, lol. Neat tool, but not one I'd be using any time soon.
Dangerous rhetoric there. Consider that a massive state surveillance apparatus is only one facet of the threat faced by activists, journalists and...
I'm probably irrationally paranoid but I just don't trust much of anything they're behind. That said, I'm putting a reference together and would...
What's giving you a hard time with uMatrix? I'd be glad to lend what help I can if you'd like; I love the thing. Feel free to shoot me a PM.
Those tweets are awfully curious... As for the canary, it says they intend to update approximately once per quarter; perhaps the month's end will...
Well said! Punch cards must have been neat - wish I had the same breadth of experience! That's one reason I enjoy the Privacy Settings add-on....
Very true. I boot from separate partitions generally but I have a handful of VMs I play with from time to time as well. I'm guess I'm asking...
@Synzvato - Just echoing @Krusty's sentiment; welcome! Thanks again for taking the time to weigh in. @inka - Thanks for your insights as well!...
Fair enough! Thanks for taking the time to explain, I appreciate the insight :thumb:. Not to proselytize, but I'm a big fan of Linux; anything...
@Krusty - Out of curiosity (and if you don't mind me asking) how come you're using Windows 10? Isn't that a privacy nightmare?
Heh, now my tinfoil hat is suddenly trendy? Fashion is so fickle.
Working on putting a hardening reference together and would love to get an idea of some of your "best practices" for locking down a Linux system...
I'm not sure I understand; those links seem to me to be more reason to avoid NoScript than to use it. And which add-ons were you referring to when...
Oh, trust me, that point isn't lost on me! The persistence of data on such a scale is an absolutely unprecedented concern that more people should...
Could you elaborate on that thought? And I excluded NoScript on purpose; in situations where I want to ensure an even greater degree of security...
I'm in agreement with you; we can't stop using technologies because we're made to believe that they implicate suspicious or nefarious activity....
Excellent, thanks!
Smart thinking! I was doing it manually before coming across this add-on but the other references I had (including Mozilla's dedicated wiki...)...
Hey all! I've compiled a list of privacy tips and techniques which I'm going to be rolling out in the near future but I wanted to share what I...
I'd definitely agree with you if the user hasn't properly configured their system and if there aren't other mechanisms in place to mitigate...
@Cache - Thanks! @Krusty13 - Cache raises an interesting point; why use Chrome? I've never really understood the appeal (Google's panopticon...
Lol, yeah. As a rule I'm immediately apprehensive of any Google service but I'm also a huge fan of telling The Man to shove it in as many small...
To be perfectly candid, I just don't have a ton of familiarity with them. I'm very wary of associating any financial information with whichever...
uBlock Origin + uMatrix I think the interfaces for uBO and uM are excellent and more informative while also providing more granular control than...
This is a new setup I've been tinkering with recently; any comments, critiques and/or suggestions are welcome! Ultimately my goal is to create a...
