Funny you say that since a few hours ago someone on here posted “how did reddit ban my alts??” and you’re acting like this is an issue that only affects hobbyists and experts. My guess is you don’t say anything interesting enough to have issues.

Banking information, names, phone #, home addresses & that of their family members

Just doing my regular check under the hood with the people who still think their info is safe in datacenters in the Diddy Megaupload era

Margbaramerica and lib_crusher which is a bummer since I told those kind of guys many times that just posting our way through thr holocaust epically owning people on the Fuhrer app accomplishes little and risks much. I just don’t get why tech companies are expected to follow their own arbitrary rules they repeatedly break. Why tolerate your friends being mysteriously banned or engagement nerfed until they barely even show up on your page, in the first place? Then again, Lemmy doesn’t seem like it was designed for people who like to make friends at all.

Those who do not move do not notice their chains. For a bunch of people who spend all of their time complaining about “fascism” and “enshittification”, you’re awfully cozy about putting junior’s life data where it will be used to build an AI personality profile. Not only that, you feel smug when you tell people how eagerly you expose your family to tech oligarchs that frequented Little St. James.

Where is the shame?

You should try being correct about something. It’s much better than being angry. It’s like pissing on a guy who keeps drinking it, but complains about the flavor. If you could hold your own, you wouldn’t feel the need to make so many reply guy accounts to seem less alone. (It doesn’t work.)

rss feed -> ironfox with libredirect is really smooth just a heads-up if this stops working due to the api thing you mentioned

Creepiest reply guy account award

Hah, now you’re trying to bring your employment requirements into it. Imagine trying to dick wave about being an IT guy and throwing a tantrum because someone didn’t trust datacenters and want to hug and kiss them and hand over all of their family’s information to them. Your whole threat model is the guy trying to break into wifi. You are literally part of my own threat model. Law enforcement is an asset to you, not a part of a threat model. You are a computer mall cop. Yeah, people like you are exactly why nobody should ever be satisfied with TLS encryption 😂 incompetent shrill nincompoop

That must sound really epic if you don’t know anything about how internet security works at all and have no threat model outside of a guy sharing public wifi with you. No important personal information, photos, professional files, financial documents, websites. Which would track for a Lemmy.world reply guy who apparently got roused from days of slumber by me impertinently pointing out I am the only person in the thread advocating thorough privacy practices

“I value privacy I just think TLS is sufficient” is exactly the kind of crud I’m talking about hahaha. You guys would be so easy to DNS poison

Don’t think this attitude will survive long once Copilot & stuff starts making meemaw and peepaw into Minority Report-style billboards for gallblader medication

Love the people coming into the privacy community to say they don’t value privacy rather than explaining the limits of a VPN in that regard

Using only one is silly you should at least use Rethink, Foxyproxy, etc

They all have tradeoffs and trust is an intricate one that’s easily swept aside and forgotten with assumptions like “Swiss privacy law is strong”. Plus some are designed for streaming some are not, fingerprinting is less impactful when every fingerprint has a different address

These projects are fun to hear abt because I always go “damn I wish I heard about that six years ago” only to find out it is emerging from 8 years of developmental purgatory. So in a way I got to skip the wait

I’m confused why so many open source developers think that the EU is going to be the foster parents of FOSS communities

Fork to partner with kitchen

libredirect.github.io

Yeah I’m pretty sure it is, but you can run it yourself. I do not recall if it has been audited either

I beg your pardon waldo?

After reading this thread I’m just going to steal the physical books 🥷
