Avoid “Private Internet Access” at all costs. It’s run by Kape Technologies, the company behind multiple VPN providers like ExpressVPN and CyberGhost.

If you read their legal agreements, you’ll notice they are rather questionable.

Also, don’t use a VPN from a Chinese provider. As far as I’m aware, Chinese companies are heavily regulated and legally required to share data with the Chinese government without a warrant or similar order.

I suggest taking a look at this chart, which might be helpful: https://vpn.techlore.tech/

I must say that Mental Outlaw is known for using the wrong terminology, for example calling closed-source software “spyware”, which bothers everyone who works in the cybersecurity industry because this is blatantly wrong. I assume it’s the same story with this supposed “backdoor”.

No.

Yes, wouldn’t recommend it yet. Very unstable and buggy experience.

The post is a bit misleading. Posteo and Mailbox offer end-to-end encryption through OpenPGP.

Proton offers E2EE through OpenPGP and when communicating with other Proton Mail users.

Tuta offers E2EE only for communication with other Tuta users.

The encryption of incoming and outgoing emails to other providers Proton, Tuta, Mailbox (possibly Posteo too) provide, is not end-to-end encryption, as the mail content is visible to the provider and only encrypted at rest.

There is a good video by “By Default” on YouTube which highlights this.

They’re actually being discussed, but more by experts with other experts, in groups of researchers, etc.

The general privacy advocate often times lacks the deep technical understanding.

TL;DR:

• Chrome downloads a 4GB AI model without any user-facing option to disable this behaviour.
• Use another browser to avoid this, e.g. a Firefox employee stated that the AI kill-switch will completely stop such features in Firefox (Source: Techlore Talks). Other alternatives are Brave, Vivaldi, Waterfox and many more. Choose what fits your needs.

You confuse facism with nazism.

I just look over it, and it already contained lots of false information. E.g. AFD is actually NOT the most popular party in Germany, the surveys turned out to be wrong.

Likely illegal in the EU; somebody should bring this to the attention of applicable authorities when it scales.

I never used torrenting for anything illegal lol. The last I used it was to download Linux Mint ISO, before Brave removed Webtorrent from their browser 🙄

Because torrenting is not a technology exclusively dedicated to piracy.

It’s developed by singular person as you read in their FAQ: “Donut Browser is built by one person with the goal of making the internet a little more private. Paid plans are how commercial users support the project and keep it sustainable.”

Which is concerning.

It also promotes illegal practices as it can be seen here: https://donutbrowser.com/use-cases/automation/

I wouldn’t recommend it.

Personal attacks are used by people who lack valid arguments; therefore, I will block you to protect my psychological well-being.

Anyone interested in discussing actual Signal flaws, like the unecessary phone number requirement is free to reply and do so.

I read the article in the past, and it is still as flawed as it used to be. You’re quite extremist without much legitimate reason. Signal is and will likely stay for the foreseeable time one of the most secure and private messengers.
