Mozilla has updated Firefox to have some new data collection silliness. It seems OK, but if like me, you're skeptic, chose the hamburger menu, go to settings, type "firefox da" and the setting will pop up. Uncheck stuff and you're good to go.
Not my comfort zone to be the subject of a mini documentary like this, but here we are! Grateful to @mozilla for uplifting @horizontal's work and supporting our fight for a more open, safe, and private internet.
And always grateful to be building with a team of talented people who put care into both what we make and how we make it together 💙
Ugh. Am I the only one who finds it kind of creepy when she just looks out the window and says "What neighborhood am I in right now?" and Google's cyberstalker tells her exactly where she is?
Is ProtonVPN & Mullvad affected by this attack? I use both of these services on daily basis. If they affected how can I mitigate this? #tech#privacy#linux#proton#mullvad
I sent my preferred #VPN service in ProtonVPN (at @protonprivacy) an email about this and hope they respond to this serious claim. You should do the same for your preferred service (consumer, enterprise, self hosted too).
Changes in the UK Data Protection and Digital Information Bill will exacerbate the existing power imbalances that migrants, refugees and asylum seekers have over their data.
Have you been looking for a more secure and privacy minded email? I’ve got the solution!
I’ve been using @protonprivacy for going on 2 months now and I’m not going back! Privacy is at their core and your emails are E2EE. You can even import your other emails.
I love the email service plus their other services.
I totally missed this, but looks like Proton acquired Standard Notes (end-to-end encrypted notes). Looks like nothing will change in the short term.
In 2022, they also acquired SimpleLogin, and have so far kept it more or less the same for users. You can just use your Proton account to sign up/in if wanted and there's some integration.
