Technology@lemmy.world•Mozilla partners with Ecosia for a better web | The Mozilla BlogEnglish
7·1 year agoI switched from Kagi to Qwant because they’ll be collabing with Ecosia on their own index. Quality of results is, sadly, worse (uBlacklist helps somewhat), but I don’t want to support Kagi because they’re expanding their partnership with Yandex and funneling money to Kremlin.

17·2 years agoFandom has always been a shitty company abusing the spirit of CC licenses. They animating the husks of dead wikis whose communities moved to selfhost just so they can show autoplay video ads.
Support independent wikis by installing extensions https://getindie.wiki/ and https://support.wiki.gg/wiki/Wiki.gg_Redirect. (Also get yourself a mobile browser that supports extensions: Firefox on Android and Orion on iOS).

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Arguments why Telegram is not a good idea for anyone
74·2 years agoTelegram is the best social network. Not so much a private messenger.
As for risks… http://kremlingram.org/ has the Russian ties well-documented, even if theystretch the evidence at times, the latest border cross leaks are proofs enough

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Telegram CEO charged in France for ‘allowing criminal activity’ on messaging app
52·2 years agoAgain, the materials are in public groups. Anyone with an account can see them. If we imagine that Telegram had the same functionality as it does now over E2EE, the offending users would be sharing their keys in public, and Telegram would still be as viable.
Telegram deserves some pushback for misrepresenting themselves as secure (and for lying about their connections to Russia), but I wish Moxie fanboys were able to talk about Telegram without shouting “it’s not E2EE” over and over because they don’t understand it’s a social network disguised as a messenger.

Technology@lemmy.world•Tackling addictive apps to save battery lifeEnglish
1·2 years agoThere are apps that block opening apps longer than some amount of time.
Can you recommend one for Android?
Sure, here’s the original investigation on its Russian origin: https://dou-ua.translate.goog/forums/topic/38748/?_x_tr_sl=uk&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US (Dou is the ukrainian IT forum).
Note I didn’t claim anything about technical security. It’s more of an ethical issue. Even if it’s FOSS (which, as seen in the other subthread, its merely pretending to be), it’s helping russian government.
If you want to consider security — security starts with trust. And GRU/FSB will infiltrate and use any segment of supply chain it has in its reach, being less constrained with any laws than NSA. Are you sure that malicious code will be caught in time like with xz?
No love for russian sanction-bypass product
