There is no point in protesting a data center if you continue to use AI. Wake up.

Reclaim the Net made an easy way to track the progress of anti-privacy Bills going through the process of becoming a Law.
So far, it shows the proposed Bills for the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand
I tried this a couple of months ago. The app will not stay running in the background on Android.
Not running, not scanning.
I use main, that’s it. No second profile, no private space.
Nearly all apps installed respect my privacy. Two apps installed that aren’t great for privacy. They stay disabled until I need them, then they get disabled again.
Now, if I had a Google, Facebook, etc accounts, those would be in their own profiles.
The bootloader can be unlocked, doesn’t clarify if it can be relocked. An unlocked bootloader is a security problem.
We have no information about the degoogled OS. What happens when an app needs Google Play Services? Does the OS have a Sandboxed version or microG?
The project is too short on details for me to give an informed opinion.
The car is a 2014. Not internet connected but still has a black box.
I’ve been playing local mp3 for decades. Along came streaming but I didn’t see a reason to switch.
My laptop is a 2017 T-470 Thinkpad running Fedora44. Old machine, new software.
I use Syncthing and external hard drives instead of cloud storage.
I don’t own a TV.
Not a single smart appliance in the house.
Could be the anonymous account is being blocked. Log out and log back in.
Have you tried to split tunnel android auto to bypass the vpn?
Every time I see someone post about Aurora, I check and it always loads for me.
Front ends get blocked, it’s just the way it is.
Benny should be using gaffers’ tape (that doesn’t leave glue on the lens when removed) instead of house wrap tape.
I see nothing wrong with that. Seems very reasonable.
Solution = degoogle
100% of the time I’m behind a vpn.
I figure if/when they start selling maybe they will expand. Likely, years away. I can wait.
Doesn’t matter who the partners are if the vehicle doesn’t collect and transmit data.
I was gonna post about Slate. Awesome stuff. A shame they don’t ship to or build in Canada.
If using a browser, it’s 10 articles and hit next. Hardly doom scrolling.
Yes its stupid.
Social media should be regulated to make it less addictive.
None of THO’s Apple videos stand out … they are all good.
Some of my favourite TheHatedOne’s videos are the Apple privacy videos.
I couldn’t agree more.
From the article
“In recent months, hints emerged concerning Apple’s plans to introduce camera-equipped AirPods Pro; the cameras would be designed to pick up details of your ambient surroundings and feed information to Siri to help you with your life.
At one point, we heard the product had been pulled citing privacy concerns. But that doesn’t seem to be the case, as the latest seemingly orchestrated Apple “leak” offers up a short video to explain how these things are going to work.”
A Pixel. I don’t want the first generation of Moto/GOS. The 2nd or 3rd year should have fewer bugs.
Infosec Exchange allows for 10,000 11,000 words per post.
Same. Cores, screen resolution are off. Fingerprint is different for both visits.
On my Android, Brave gave a different fingerprint both times I visited.
The site thinks both times was my first visit.
The site believes I have either a 4 core or 2 core cpu. I have an Octa-core.
Also, it shows a different display size both times.
Nearly all sites like this can do nothing without javascript turned on.
I’m curious to see how Librewolf is, but that will wait until after work.
Edit: Librewolf does indeed produce a different fingerprint each time. It also didn’t give up my location like Brave did on my GrapheneOS phone.
I have since changed the timezone on my phone to a country to the South within the same timezone so the clock remains accurate.
I tweaked several settings in the OS.
Under Mobile Data for the app I allowed “background data” and “unrestricted mobile data usage”
And under battery “unrestricted” and “allow background usage”.
After all that I can’t keep the app running. 🤷
