    It sounds like they do make some efforts to secure their device, but it’s not their main focus. Theirs is to improve privacy first and foremost.

    I don’t have any issue with that: different OSes have different priorities and that’s okay. However, I feel like he’s basically saying that users of hardened secure devices are pedos, and I have a very big issue with that. I don’t know if maybe in French it doesn’t sound that way, but they English translation does for me.






  • Disabling JS will definitely break websites, but I disagree that it will make you more ubique. Sure, you are now one of the few people with JS disabled, but JS enabled basically uniquely identifies you already. Plus, JS is also a huge attack vector, so if you are that “paranoid” you may as well reduce your attack surface.

    Note: I’m not a security expert.
