I can’t visit them directly (they are on 5 different DNS block lists). Looking at Internet Archive I would say it’s cookies set by Google, probably through Firebase Analytics, maybe AdMob.
The app seems fairly small in size compared to orbot which is really old and also invizible pro seems to do a ton of things including firewall vpn etc . So does it connect to tor network properly and pass all your traffic through it as good as orbot and completely block internet acces to not whitelisted services as good as...
I like the blocking abilities and the logging more with RethinkDNS. I never used I2P so that was moot for me.
With RethinkDNS I can pick the Hagezi blocklist and No Facebook, as an example, quite easily. I can also individually block domains and IPs. Dnscrypt doesn’t allow that much precision.
It also has features like allow/disallow only on WiFi or data, block apps not in use, block all apps when device is locked, plus a bunch more stuff.
It integrates with Orbot, but Orbot must also be installed.
Really I can’t say anything bad about InviziblePro, I prefer RethinkDNS, you might not though.
I prefer the RethinkDNS firewall as it is more granular in what it can block. Say you have the Wikipedia app, you can block intake-analytics.wikimedia.org and still allow meta.wikimedia.org
InviziblePro can be setup to start on boot. DnsCrypt, Tor, and I2P can all be toggled individually in the settings.
Yes, Tor can be set to start on boot, and there is a run all traffic through Tor setting. I’m pretty sure I remember one time when Tor failed during a session and things still worked though. With RethinkDNS this does not happen tough. When Orbot loses connection, quits, whatever, RethinkDNS will still send it traffic (if configured to do so) but it will not leave the device because Orbot is not running.
I have a specific issue I want to solve right now, but the topic is phrased more generally as I would love the answer to this as well. But this might be an XY-problem because of this, so here’s the actual problem I want to solve:...
NB I have not used LibreWolf, I don’t think there are any site specific toggles in about:config. This probably doesn’t help but some Android Webviews do allow this.
You probably considered this already but as a workaround could you use one browser when you need WebGL and another when you do not.

That was my argument with an ex years ago about turning the phone off at night.
‘What if it’s important?’
’ no one ever calls at 3am to say there’s 4 hooker’s, an 8 ball, and 10k cash waiting outside in a limo, it’s always your favorite grandmother died. She’ll still be fucking dead at 8 after I’ve had a shower and coffee, turn the phone off.
Today I was contacted by someone at work. She graduated school with me and our 20 year reunion was coming up. Why did she contact me at work? It was the only way they were able to track me down.

Hiya, so quickly wondering wether you have enabled this or not. Obviously it’s not great for privacy, but it also seems very nice to have for image cloud solutions, so that images can be sorted based on location. Are there any good solutions for this? I’d like have it enabled, but also afraid of sharing images with sensitive...
I really want to try Filen as my main cloud provider but my main brake point is that the app doesn’t automatically upload my images in the background. I’m not sure if this is because I’m on the free plan or because of my device, has anyone had better luck with the automatic image upload in the background?
Have you tried the app Lockdown? It’s a firewall (free) and VPN (optional, paid). The firewall seems to work quite well, at least according to their logs, and it’s open source.
I have some concerns about this app and I’m asking if it’s useful or not, not the app itself but more the 3 protocols included in it. I2P, DNSCrypt and TOR. What is you opinion?
I used it previously, not I2P though. Then I switched to RethinkDNS which I like better since it allows more control over what apps can do. It integrates with Orbot, so I can still use TOR.
Voters in 19 countries, including in three of the world’s largest democracies, are widely skeptical about whether their political elections are free and fair, and many favor a strong, undemocratic leader, according to a study released Thursday....
My process is I rinse peppers of dirt, chop or purée depending on whim mostly, and loosely cover.
After X amount of time, usually when they are significantly off gassing and look gross, I simmer and add a little vinegar.
I like xanthan gum, but do not add it to hot sauce. I use it to stabilize things like BBQ sauce when the flavor is right but the texture/ thickness is off.
They will settle and separate. They will also continue to ferment unless you kill it off (not always a bad thing).
The usual methods are heat, acid, cold crashing, or a mix. Heat and acid are my favorites for hot sauces, cold crashing for things like fresh berry sodas. They all work, but the flavor is different with each one.
Just cold crashing will not last as long, that may not be a problem for you though if you use it quickly. ‘Quickly’ isn’t really a timeframe, it will be obviously ‘off’ when it’s off. That depends on initial time, temp, activity.
I love fermenting things, it’s really interesting to see the changes.
You can read up on the science, but just playing around is as useful IMHO.
I am trying to re-adjust how much effort I want to put into privacy concerns. Too much stuff I’m using isn’t working properly or using a lot of my mental resources that I need elsewhere....
rethinkdns.com the android app is also an excellent firewall with logging. I use a custom config on my router. I can’t say enough good things about this.
simplex.chat Android/ iOS/ macOS/ Linux/ Windows getting people to switch is a pita though.
That notice has been there since the third party change. Under ‘Data’ - ‘Reddit Source’ I had to change it from ‘Teddit’ to ‘Reddit’. Teddit stopped working quite soon after the API change.
I am using Orbot, which always shows up as a TOR exit node. Strange that they would allow that. I always pick somewhere in western Europe so my time zone stays the same.
For some of my browsers I do spoof the user agent, for others it is stock. Mull has Privacy Resist Fingerprint enabled for instance, this happens in all the browsers I have loaded. Mull, Smart Cookie Web Preview, Fennec, Iceraven, Cromite, Mulch, Fulguris, Monocles, Privacy, FOSS, DDG.
