You can try playing with Arkenfox, installing uBlock Origin, fiddling with about:config, and giving yourself an aneurysm…
…or you could try Mullvad Browser. It’s a fork of Firefox, co-developed by Mullvad and The Tor Project, with impressive fingerprinting resistance (according to Cover Your Tracks). It’s like Tor Browser without Tor.
Also, install NoScript. It helps a lot.
American flag checks out.
You know what? You’re right.
Welp. Guess now is as good a time as any for me to switch to deSEC…
Oh my god…
I’ll wait and see how this turns out, but I’ll keep openbsd.org open in my browser. Just in case.
Holy mother of god. He’ll be wearing a little red armband next!
Oh fuck! Is that a RAID array? That must’ve taken so long to put back together!
Guess it’s time to either get a new pendrive, or enter the void.
I have FreeBSD on my ThinkPad, and I’d use it on more of my boxes if any of the other WiFi hardware was supported.
Privacy, for one thing. I don’t use Google, Bing, Windows, or any Meta software*, and Yandex aren’t much different.
Security, though, is another thing. I live in a NATO country, and I would imagine the Russian government are monitoring Yandex (and other RUnet services). Frankly, I think contributing any data to such a government would be against my interests.
There’s also a lot of censorship on RUnet. Yeah, Google has that too, but Mojeek and Brave Search do not.
TL;DR: Google is data-hungry and supplies data to the NSA; Yandex is data-hungry and supplies data to the Kremlin; Mojeek and Brave Search are good; DDG and Startpage are the best for the average user.
I rarely have to use it, but for me it works every time.
I don’t even care if the results are good. I’m not about to use any part of RUnet.
Amateurs! It’s gotta be silver!
Fair enough.
You are absolutely correct. The stupidity here, though, is that word got out that Trump uses them, and that has caused a lot of his supporters to start wearing them, whether they need to or not.
This is the entire debian-official Tumblr, summed up in one photo.
It’s just the headline for this one. The rest of the article is more serious and less ironic.
