Embarrassed to ask what this is exactly…?

Oops, sorry!

They can easily make a list of people prone to use anti-facial recognition that lives in or walks by certain areas then recognize them by body-type, height, walking rhythm…

Which is why everyone should put stones in their shoes, especially if going to a protest. 🙂

BTW, how do yachts taste?

EDIT: Ok, what I wanted you to respond was something like: “The yachts themselves are nothing more than shiny floaty slow-moving food tins that, when gently pried open, are often found to contain many delectably rich (in more ways that one) juicy humans with ketamine-spiced blood, chomp.”

@WaffleWarrior@lemmy.zip, what specific problems are you running up against? I’m confident that my fellow lemmings and I can help you figure out how to minimize or at least reduce whatever privacy related tech issues you’re having.

Just let people live in the office buildings

Yes 👍

I just kind of assumed that 🇪🇺 had a little more sense than that. Oh well. 🙁

Does Israel have that much sway over Europe? The Germans are perhaps still motivated by guilt over the Holocaust, to the extent that they’re willing to look the other way while another one is being committed. Makes sense, right? 🤦 Pure insanity.

Is that the reason?! Good grief.

Maybe they can find a way to host from the Moon 🌕before the Chinese 🇨🇳 colonize it 😉.

Could you say more about why Czechia and Spain would be preferable?

All kerfuffle about Germany aside, I’m at least interested to see where they go with this since I feel like Proton is kind of resting on its laurels as well as continuing to treat Linux users as second class citizens (I also had longstanding issues with Tuta, too long to go into here, but which would probably not effect most of its users).

I’m sure they do. Do you self-host your email? I’m not smart or patient enough to do that, so I have to trust someone, unfortunately.

Well . . . at least it’s not in the US . . . ?

Does Firefox have some sort of addon that will let you easily check to see if the site you’re on is being hosted by AWS, Google Cloud, etc?

So it’s off to PeerTube then, I guess? People could post the same video on both (yt and pt), and then on yt write something like “why not watch this on PeerTube instead?” although it’d probably get taken down.

😂

That’s why, when I have to email someplace to request account deletion, I write “Please delete my account and all the information associated with it.” Probably doesn’t make a difference, but worth a shot I guess.

Also been very happy with Filen.

Needs to have tabs for images, video, etc.

Oh, sorry 🙁. Are you on mobile or desktop?

This would effect Mullvad, right?

Could you explain/elaborate to a know-nothing (me) on the following from your link?:

Caveats of federation: Metadata leaking

When using federation, Matrix’s room states (containing a lot of Metadata) get replicated and stored indefinitely on every homeserver any user connects with or connects to. While this is a feature for enabling distributed chat rooms, it comes at a serious privacy cost.

To avoid this, you can either disable federation, or make sure that your users signed up with no linkable identifiers other than their user names.

Last time I tried SimpleX, you had to scan a QR code to go from Desktop to mobile and vice versa, any chance of them changing that? Otherwise it did look promising.

If I set up Filen to sync my home folder to the cloud and I change VPN countries while it’s syncing, is that likely to cause any technical or security problems?

EDIT: My tests would seem to indicate not, but what does everyone else think? Best practices?

This is looking pretty promising so far, thanks to all who responded 👍

Thanks! They claim to have zero knowledge and E2EE . . . does End 2 End Encryption mean that my data is encrypted “in transit” as well as “at rest?” Was never quite clear on that.

Hey, if I cross post this to proton@lemmy.world, maybe Andy Yen will see it, it will light a fire under their collective asses, they’ll drop everything else they’re working on, labor long and hard, night and day, until the Linux client for Proton Drive is ready! Whaddaya think? 😉

Thank you! 🙂

If I had a phone set up like that, and, say, ICE or TSA took it, what would they be able to get from it? And I know that legally they can’t make you give up your PIN, but what’s to keep them from just beating it out of you? Cops of any stripe rarely if ever face consequences for their actions, especially in the US.

Is that one a paid service? Have heard good things about it but never tried.

Thank you very much! Will definitely take a look. 🙂

Yeah, I couldn’t find anything much there either! Oh well.

Well, ignoring anything else, cozy lacks the encryption proton drive has.

Do you by any chance have a reference for that? I believe you, I’d just like to read a little more about it. Of course then there’s also Cryptomator if the host doesn’t properly protect your stuff . . .

I can make use of Proton Drive, but using the web client only, which is extremely cumbersome. There is rclone, but I’m not smart enough to understand how to set it up. 🤕 IIRC, of all the Proton Apps, Drive is the only one lacking a Linux client.

I’m not hocking anything—notice the question mark at the end of the title. I don’t have any association with Cozy; I know nothing about them. Also, I’m referencing someone’s blog post, not endorsing it or necessarily agreeing with it. Like I said, Andy Yen’s comments aside, Proton Drive doesn’t have a desktop client for Linux which is why I’m looking for a replacement anyway. I’m keeping my other Proton stuff, for now at least. Maybe read a little more closely next time?

Ok, duh, you’re both right of course; late night/early morning brain fart here 🧠💨

Will it work with K-9/Thunderbird for Android?
