I though the acronym was GAFAM ? Google Amazon Facebook Apple Microsoft ? Faang has some deeper meaning but misses Microsoft in it ^^

Hey… I use alot of em dashes in my notes and I really like em ! I hate that everyone associate em-dashes with ai written stuff (even if it’s true !)

Rantoff

That’s nice, but I wish there would be a way to somehow intercept traffic and send them some “warning” video in place of their recording…

Or something else that makes their recording useless or broken ^^

Thank you for your answer ! Wasn’t aware of this !

However, this isn’t an issue if all your DNS goes through a pihole with DoH/DoT ?

keep in mind, netGuard (or rethink) is less efficient when you use private dns

Care to explain? What do you mean by “less efficient”?

Same experience here… Luckily we have brew ^^ Gives some freedom to customize !

But things like .plst… What a hellish dumb experience ! Nowadays I use my Mac as testing ground before they go into my main server…

But what a surprise when I found out that bash on Mac doesn’t work the same as on Linux…

Yeaaah Macs are good for a set/forget/pay workflow… But tinkering?? Naaaah.

Yeah doin the same here. Unlock bootloader, root with magisk and install a debloater + firewall and block everything by default and only allow things I trust.

However, this phone is the last one to allow this kind of magic… Since android 16 just bricks your phone if you do that.

Thanks for the hint :) probably going to switch from SimpleX to this one :)

opened in assigned Firefox containers

Is there any kind of automate way to do that? Because if you have always to think what account goes in what container :/ This is a lot of brain overheat !

I like rethinkDNS :) but their wireguard implementation Is? Was? Kinda broken :/

Tech literates people tend to be more aware, but people who don’t even know what OS means/is…

I’m the only person in my family that has some IT knowledge and believe it or not, everyone in my family things that way… While swipping, scrolling, posting on GAFAMs and publicly exposing all their life ^^. In my friends circle it’s the same… Those who don’t know what an OS is respond the same way.

So it’s mostly the lack of knowledge of what privacy is, in the digital world… Because in real life most people put curtains behind their windows, so people won’t snoop on your hidden secrets.

My god how many times have I been through this… Living with debloated phone, hardened browser, VPN, Linux, sure isn’t easy every day :/// !

I totally agree, It shouldn’t be soo hard to value your own data/privacy and sometimes it feels like I’m fighting the wind.

Probably 90% of lemmy’s user base hate Meta… However, there’s still alot going on in the normies’ world !

How so? I’m not doubting your info but how does a browser provides more security than a native app?

Seeing all those upvotes, this must be true somehow… However I was certain that native apps are more secure than webapps.

Do you have any reputable ressource to backup your claims?

I like the idea :) It’s similar on how SSL certificates work !

Except for those who are diabetic, why would you even choose to eat/drink “sugar-free” food with sugar substitute?That doesn’t even make any sense… Are people that stupid?

stop industrial sugar based drinks/food completely ! And I know this takes probably away more than 80% of the things you find in stores, but do people still didn’t realized that sugar is add as addictive ingredient? Some claim sugar can be as addictive as cocain…

I have seen kids drinking coke at a very young age and I can assure you, those substances are not going easy on your brain !!

And peeps are just laughing and having fun while the drug kicks in… People are just dumb…

Ugh… Movin Facial recognition, what a joke. I put them on the same level of stupidity as those who put Tesla’s AI chip in their brain.

Sad days for privacy and anonymity enthusiasts 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Yeah… After a user here on Lemmy pointed out that the AdGuard app on mobile made a lot of strange requests to ads services, I gave it a try myself with PCAPdroid and seeing all thoses requests made by only opening the app made me think twice about AdGuard…

Removed all their services from my network and a happy piHole + quad9 user since !

It’s not 1 way sync. Please look up what you’re talking about before speaking.

Yeah it’s not, however you can configure syncthing as a 1way sync solution and I was emphasizing that this still isn’t a cloud solution.

Don’t get me wrong, syncthing is great and I use it everyday, but syncthing is not a cloud solution.

Syncthing is not a cloud solution though… Rather a sync solution. What’s the difference? If you delete the file on 1 device it gets deleted on every device who shares the directory…

While a Cloud solution, your file is on a central server and you can download/delete that file on your device without affecting the server.

Cloud service ≠ Sync service but have a similar purpose.

Edit: And doin’ 1 way sync is still not a cloud service !
