  • ProtonMail provides information used to identify email owner...

    Jump

  • I never trusted ProtonMail. Right when you sign up, you're constantly bombarded with advertisements to upgrade to pro. They're plastered everywhere with obnoxious banners.

    I get that they're a business and they need money to operate, but the ads are so obnoxiously "in your face" that in my mind their priority isn't your privacy, it's your money.

    Tutamail is the better service.

  • Firefox has plugins to spoof specific tabs as always active.

  • MAGA trolls outed as foreigners vanish from X after brutal update

    Jump

  • I think you mean, X should be nationalized like our social security numbers have been. It's only fair, the piece of shit who runs it is the only reason that even happened, why not keep things fair?

  • Why don't cars have a way to contact nearby cars like fictional spaceships do?

  • Plex got hacked.

    Jump

  • I bought a lifetime subscription years ago, and even if the payment method got decrypted, it's well expired. Not to mention I haven't had a Plex server running for ages.

  • Google: 'Your $1000 phone needs our permission to install apps now'". Android users are screwed

    Jump

  • MediaTek or Qualcomm chips will be used probably, but to order cutting edge chips they'd need to order pretty high volumes to keep prices down, so the chip they order will probably be older. Though the Pixel 5 was one of my favorite phones, so if they can keep that level of speed on Android 16 then I'm all for it.

  • Tesla FSD turns off more U.S. consumers than it attracts, survey finds

    Jump

  • Part of what pisses me off is that Tesla doesn't use LiDAR, it uses cameras. So in sub optional conditions, like the ones where it kills people, LiDAR would resolve those outlier cases.

    But he'll never do that because he likes how his own farts smell.

  • Meta appoints anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracy theorist Robby Starbuck as AI bias advisor

    Jump

  • You are exactly correct

  • You don’t see articles like this about moms with two jobs who still manage to take care of their kids

    Jump

  • That's hilarious though ngl

    But this man never needs to worry about anything anymore. I'd probably "work every day" knowing that I have the pleasure of stopping whenever I want, and having everything you could ever want right at your fingertips at any given moment.

  • I don't think that the founders are bad people. If you look at their history of work, they have done enormous amounts of work in the computer security sector. The founder, however, did run a cloud based WPA cracking service.

    Meredith Whitaker, who is the president, used to work at Google doing research for "issues related to net neutrality measurement, privacy, security, and the social consequences of artificial intelligence".

    In 2018 she then staged walkouts at Google over concerns of sexual misconduct and citizen surveillance.

    The people on Signal's board seem to be trustworthy people with a pretty airtight background. You have to worry more about the mobile operating system compromising you than do you about Signal.

  • The SteamOS era is imminent: Valve adds a new compatibility rating for games that’ll run on ‘any device that’s not a Steam Deck’

    Jump

  • I'm hoping that the next gen Steam Deck gets a coprocessor that will allow it to use less power in sleep mode, and also download games and updates in the background while the screen is off or in sleep mode.

  • You've probably seen people with mommy and daddy issues before, but this is the first time we've ever witnessed a billionaire with severe mommy and daddy issues.

    Dude wants attention and doesn't care how he gets it. Helps a lot to be a Nazi too.

  • Mozilla Foundation Calls on Tech Industry to Block ICE Contractor

    Jump

  • Easy: you don't.

    Nobody has the balls to chase these ghouls down for illegally accessing information, most especially because our government is the ones enabling them to do this.

  • Amazon Boycot March 7-14th | No Purchases. Its time to disrupt the system.

    Jump

  • I wonder if Amazon is pushing these "protests" to drown out the real ones.

  • Anti-Trump searches appear hidden on TikTok after app comes back online: 'TikTok is now Trump's propaganda'

    Jump

  • I've never heard this and wouldn't have believed it even if I did.

  • APKMirror is no longer allowing downloads of TikTok, Lemon8, citing US Bill H.R.7521, setting a dangerous precedent for sideloading applications

    Jump

  • Most likely it will work with a VPN, yes. But having lived in America for so long, I never thought I would expect to have to use a VPN to access a website with content censored by our government.

    Jump

  • I thought it looked like CloudFlare. Does that mean the US government is leveraging Cloudflare in order to block whatever they choose, assuming it has that as its underlying architecture?

  • F-Droid is great, but it's only for FOSS. So it won't host content like TikTok on it.

  • You're right lol

  • APKPure

    It looks a little sketchy to me, I'm seeing mixed things on reddit about it.

    An alternative application you can use to download Google Play apps is the Aurora Store (https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore), but I think it still obtains the files from Google Play.

    What phone do you have, and what'll it take for you to upgrade to Pixel 8?
