    Thanks. Very good comment, I agree… And yet…

    Ironically, not being on what most people are using (stock Chrome without extensions) is already a fingerprint. And tor browser, even if it is providing anonymity, is also a huge fingerprint on itself, by blocking all the fingerprinting stuff…

    The irony is lost the moment you come up with a proper threat model upon which you base the decisions of what security and privacy measures are going to be taken for a given online activity.

    I really liked (and used it for quite a while) that extension, Ad Nauseam, that would actually follow behind scenes all ads and shit…











  • You just joined in February so maybe you are taking it personally? In either case, let me share that I have been on this instance for few years and I trust the admins motives as they expressed.

    Your claim is very much and accusation without evidence. There’s no such track record for the humans involved. On the contrary, they are trying to build a community.

    I rather not argue what is good or bad censorship. I kind of agree with you.

    How about giving the admins the benefit of the doubt?

    Time will tell if they are censoring a certain voice, and which one that is. Only then it make sense to judge their actions…



  • Ever since the CEO of Telegram was basically lured to Paris, arrested, then read the riot act for Telegram’s non-cooperation with French authorities, the company has been responding to warrants and downplaying its “E2EE” features. Expect them to have a fully accessible backdoor for LE.

    What does LE stands for?

    Also, do you have any sources to your claims?

    Just the other day, I wondered myself: what happened after that detention in Paris? I haven’t read anything else. Is he in prison or free?? No idea! Is there an ongoing trial? What were the accusations?



  • I am sorry you had gone through that experience. The only church that illuminates at all is the one we can set on fire :')

    PS. This thread can easily spin on another reiteration of the arguments around “separating the art from the artist”. That text on AI may have a certain sympathy to some… I haven’t read it. After this post, I thought “maybe I should?”. Thanks to your comment I got centered back in my perspective: “nah. the pope can say whatever he wants to. I won’t be his supporter nor audience.”
