I have been considering replacing my nearly 7 year old iPhone (although very reluctant) and I was checking for options. Really the only phone that caught my eye was the Sony xperia 1 V, but I found no information about how to degoogle and lock down the device. I really like the features and the built in camera apps, etc. Is...

I really need to get in contact with some people on WA and have some groups to join and have been waiting for interoperability to get going so I don’t have to use zuck’s app . But the said date march has long passed and I can’t find shit on it or why it didn’t happen anywhere . I have yesterday downloaded the apk from...

Daily reminder that sites “protected” by cloudflare are effectively MITM attacks. HTTPS is now even more worthless. Cloudflare can see everything. this is a known fact and not a theory....

I have a question about Firefox containers. If I delete a container, will all of the cookies in that container be deleted? Or will they be merged with the cookies in the regulas tabs that are not connected with any container?

I’m trying to understand the problem those apps bring as a whole....

After the podcast show https://inteltechniques.com/podcast.html stopped putting out episodes, I’ve been on the lookout for other ones. Just stumbled upon The Lockdown (Practical Privacy & Security) and it seems rather good based on the first episode I listened to so thought i’d share it. But am still looking for more as I am...

Hi all,...

Hi everyone, I did stumble across adguard and was thinking about buying a family lifetime license (for the apps, not talking about adguard home here)....

I need my work emails on my mobile. They only work with Exchange/Activesync. IMAP is not an option. Is there a good, privacy respecting app for Android out there? I would like if I could use the same app for my other E-Mails which all use IMAP. I now use Gmail, but I hate the unnecessary connection with the big G. I’d also...

Pretty much the title. I’m trying to find some ammunition to fight my HOA on wasting our money. They make us use an app to gain access to amenities, and I want to see what telemetry the app sends back or what it may track....

Hi privacy community. I genuinely want to hear from both people who are very private and those who didn’t go to such an extent....

Hello,...

I’m looking for a way to have a private method for Tap to Pay on GrapheneOS. Ideally I would like compatibility with privacy.com, and if possible have the option for Monero. I don’t mind going through an exhaustive setup process. What are my options?...

As the title says. I’m just curious what’s triggering it. There is no MS Office installed. Happens as soon i start a windows10 pc and it’s “packed” into svchost. Any idea?

9 months ago, Raivo OTP for iOS was sold to Mobime. Raivo was hailed highly in terms of privacy, but was dethroned to 2FAS Auth after that incident. Today, Raivo launched an update, and after updating all of my entries were completely wiped. I didn’t have a backup, but even if I did you now have to pay in order to...

I never want to get a smart TV, but I found this exact TV (Toshiba FireTV) on the side of the road and decided it would be a fun project to try enhancing its privacy as much as I can. It did not come with the remote or any other accessories besides the TV, so if there is any way to pair an iPhone/Pixel as a remote that would...

For weeks, I can’t reach qwant maps anymore. Is it down for you guys as well? Does anyone know anything? There isn’t even a mention on their main pages of it anymore. They just purged everything without further notice. Is that the same experience for you? I’m accessing with a VPN from within france.

I use Tor every once in a while for basic web browsing just to add some regular traffic to the network and not just dark web traffic. I mainly use it for Reddit as they lock to block me because of my VPN IP but don’t block Tor IP and occasionally other stuff. I know Tor is made so that everyone looks the same but, I am not...
