Yeah, we’re going to be doing a Simplified Privacy podcast starting soon. A mix of educational segments and interviews. And yeah like you mentioned mentioning Monero, but not solely focused on Monero

thanks for your time Charlie

Appreciate your time

Thanks so much mate, reach out once we got this fully setup if you’re interested in promoting whatever you’re doing through the platform.

Hey you have to use their blockchain to get short Session names, the name prancer389 isn’t assigned. What’s the long form numbers and letters of your account?

Edit clarify: By “names” I mean DNS, finding you. You can type anything into the display, just like twitter. But it’s not the real username

poll: do you think the devs of XMR should mandate p2pool?

You can add google push in a sandbox and get NFC

The majority of matrix servers do require google & email though, especially when compared to xmpp.

as far as dendrite goes, we’re talking about using Tor & a degoogled phone without google push notifications. can you honestly tell me that matrix is not slower than XMPP here?

As far as xmpp e2ee multi-device, you’re right that it’s not perfect. I agree with your criticism, but it’s BETTER than matrix.

Ah ok, that was meant for someone who wants to setup OpenVPN on a VPS that they can SSH into. But this person does not want to do the work. So the company can provide the service of setting up what you like on a VPS

We are recommending VPNs in general, but are not “hawking” or selling a specific one.

Second, we did not say a VPN hides against cookies. Cookies can easily be erased in the browser. This article is discussing browser fingerprints, which neither a VPN nor cookies deal with. Your reading comprehension is shockingly low.

You can not use Facebook with JS disabled. uBlock Origin is an option to reduce facebook off the platform. Running a VM is an effective strategy for isolation of certain sites. No solution is perfect, nor is it for everyone.

You are correct that facial recognition and any data put into facebook would still be tracked regardless of the steps you took. You’re also correct that your friends and still leak info about you. However, I strongly disagree with your criticism regarding VPNs and VMs. A VPN is something you should be doing anyway, this is not really news to anyone here. And regarding VMs, the article does not say it’s for everyone, only those with a high threat model that want to use facebook anyway. It is not true that if you browse in a KVM machine with a given fingerprint, that it would lead back to browsing outside it. You are correct that a VM is a lot of effort for most people, and in fact, the majority will not choose this route. But this is educational material for those who ARE interested, this is what some choices are.

You know what’s also bad for the environment? Typing on lemmy, you’re using electricity

sometimes i wonder if these people are trolling or for real, thanks brother

True or False: Bill Gates said he favors higher tax rates than now. And MSN and “Liberals” on CNN/MSNBC want higher tax rates as well?

What defines left then?

Let’s start with the basics. Do you acknowledge that msn.com news leans to the left? Then do you acknowledge that Microsoft Bing and Windows, promote MSN?

Bill Gates is a hypocrite. He got wealthy off capitalism, yet often promotes socialist type policies. Also his policy ideas involve centralized control. And MSN links are promoted by bing

You’re correct that Linux is free and therefore less corporate. But one could also argue that it’s anti-big tech and google/microsoft are on the left. Also privacy is anti-NSA, and in this sense anti-government would be considered the right. However, people of all sides can enjoy Linux

so… bill gates is on the right now?

surely there are never problems with windows
