- Comment on Chromium vs Brave 1 year ago:
You’re welcome
- Comment on Chromium vs Brave 1 year ago:
Would you say that Vivaldi is (at least) better than Chromium for security and privacy?
Yes, definitly. For example they removed completly the privacy sandbox stuff from the chromium code and also includes some additional privacy protections.
- Comment on Chromium vs Brave 1 year ago:
TL;DR: Basically, Brave has a lot of protections which vanilla chromium doesn’t have (Bounce tracking, Fingerprinting, etc.) or uBlock Origin which includes, Brave also removed a lot of trash like the Privacy Sandbox thing, etc. Also Brave announced on X/Twitter that they will continue supporting MV2, Chromium won’t. Brave is the best chromium-based privacy focused browser you can get currently, if you rly don’t like Brave, Vivaldi would be a good alternative, but is weaker than Brave, since it includes not all the protections or alternatives which Brave has.
- Comment on How do yall go about meeting new people while still maintaining a decent level of privacy? 1 year ago:
Don’t use Telegram for Privacy.
This video explains very well why:
- Comment on If i use a good vpn and adblocking do i need a pi-hole? 1 year ago:
You’re welcome
- Comment on If i use a good vpn and adblocking do i need a pi-hole? 1 year ago:
Your VPN will anyway bypass the PI-Hole, also just use smth like Adguard DNS, NextDNS or RethinkDNS and you will gain similar or even better results.
- Comment on Does Multi Hop VPN add any extra privacy that is worse the loss of speed for average use? 1 year ago:
It doesn’t make sense using, since both VPNs see your traffic and one of them still knows your real IP adress. So using VPN over VPN doesn’t add any extra security or privacy. Anyone who say smth different has no technical understanding how Tor works and how VPN does.
- Comment on NextDNS vs Control D vs Adguard DNS, which one is the best? 1 year ago:
Nice, I want to do that too, but my ISP router doesn’t let me ;-;
- Comment on NextDNS vs Control D vs Adguard DNS, which one is the best? 1 year ago:
Sadly not, if your router don’t support DNS over Tls or DNS over https, but NextDNS does if you need that.
- Comment on How to use Microsoft Teams Privately? 1 year ago:
You can use the Office 365 Extension, create a new profile in your preffered Chromium based browser (just for Teams) and use it their (without Extension it won’t work). I would suggest use the traditional privacy protections too in this profile.
- Comment on NextDNS vs Control D vs Adguard DNS, which one is the best? 1 year ago:
A look at RethinkDNS couldn’t hurt too, especially their app (which work with any DNS too, has a firewall, in app filterlists and so much more)
- Comment on What are the recommend changes to make iPhone more private? 1 year ago:
If you already fear just to leak one IP adresse, which only can be linked back to you for a limited amount of time than don’t use apple.
- Comment on What are the recommend changes to make iPhone more private? 1 year ago:
It doesn’t matter. Your IP adresse is dymanic, and your IP adresse alone is basically worthless.
- Comment on How you can be deanonymized through Tor 1 year ago:
I don’t fund anything related to VPN at their products page, but that they want to promote their self-hosted entrance guards is definitly true, this article isn’t trustworthy
- Comment on How you can be deanonymized through Tor 1 year ago:
Your comment was missleading, since you did not mention what data you mean, also this is a privacy sub, copyrighted data isn’t related to privacy anyway, is only some reason why you couldn’t like a company, also this is a contentious topic, because on the one hand they just show you information you find yourself also for free online, they just present it you in a easier way, on the other hand they generate money by doing this with content from others.
- Comment on How you can be deanonymized through Tor 1 year ago:
Whoever wrote this article, didn’t do enough research about that what he written things like using a VPN aren’t recommended by the Tor Project for specific reasons, also hosting your own entrance guard makes u even more easily deanonymizable. I would recommebd to checking the Tor Project, Whonix and Tails Documentation, they include very well and also some technical explanations, about all of this.
- Comment on How you can be deanonymized through Tor 1 year ago:
They didn’t. Some people just like spreeding missinformation about things the don’t like.
- Comment on How many Adblocking/Privacy extensions are too much? 1 year ago:
I do not need to try smth which I already did and others too. I’m also not talking about ky experiences or opinions, what I said are facts.
