Are you on Android?
If so: RoMote is pretty good. Here’s the releases page for the APK. It’s also F-Droid.
Popularity aside, you sold me on the import compatibility. FreeOTP+ can export to other FreeOTP+ installations, but I’ve had issues with exporting to other apps. I had to manually import using the secrets displayed within FreeOTP+. The encryption sold me. I will be migrating to Aegis. I haven’t heard of it until this post, and have been using FreeOTP+ sans encryption.
We were only 4 and stayed pretty close together, but there were a bunch of people around, so we needed text communication. My phone can only handle 5 connected devices throughout about a 250ft unhindered radius (100ft realistically), but if you had a real wifi network, you could add a lot more people and spread out much further.
E: we did have a member drop off several times because he was beyond the threshold, but he automatically reconnected when he got close enough.
We were with several other groups and had no internet, but needed to communicate through text. Briar filled the gap with its ability to communicate internetlessly through a local network (as long as the others are on the same network). Creating a hotspot with one phone and connecting the others makes a wlan with your group inside. Could you tell me what I’m missing from my explanations? I’d be happy to elaborate further if I knew.
Google didn’t back off. They’re going forward with it, but in smaller pieces. Their first piece is going after streamed and stored media, instead of the web as a whole.
How do you control a population? You take away their rights, one little piece at a time, so they don’t notice the change. Same concept as how you eat an elephant: one bite at a time.
This time next year, the internet will be unrecognizable and massively corporate (more so than it is now), unless we, the internet population, fight back and win.
The necessity claim is to verify that you’re not a scammer, and that the freelancer can get reparations if you scam them. Here’s the thing, though. When the freelancer does get scammed, there’s nothing that these platforms are willing to do to help. I’ve seen too many of my friends go through this BS. Because of this, I believe that they want your ID as a form of gathering data to build a profile on you and, then, selling that profile for profit.
E: Autocorrect
So fb doesn’t care about my privacy like they promise?
Those are a lot of steps to come to the same conclusion as a whois search. But, yes, they’re on cloudflare, likely to help avoid another ddos takedown.
Kind of, yes. If they use special characters and numbers, too, dictionary attacks would be far less useful. In the XKCD example above, something like this (Correct@Horse&BatteryStaple8) will be much harder with a dictionary attack. Definitely not impossible, though. Nothing is 100%.
I used to install and use foreign keyboard languages, but found it nearly impossible to use in some instances (bank sites, older iPhones versions, and so on).
Not necessarily. If you have an off the shelf home network, and you have a vulnerable device (smart toaster, smart light bulb, IP camera, unpatched laptop, old iPhone or Android version, unpatched router, etc.), wired or wireless doesn’t make much of a difference. Once one device on your network is compromised, the entire network is compromised. I don’t have to be near you to get that done. Shoot, I don’t even have to be in the same country to get that done. I would say, due to the proximity rule, wifi is less secure since it takes less effort, but only in terms of that one rule.
E: added a couple more examples of common vulnerable devices.
