Exactly, seems like this should be up to the consumer. The devs can say: pixels have best security, here's a 2nd and 3rd option, here's their pros and cons.
Because as much as I approve of privacy measures and security, my phone doesn't have any lock screen. No pin, no biometrics, nothing.
I work from home, I don't really travel, I have 4 children. Physical security is annoying. I want grapheneos for data security. I don't have people trying to steal my phone, I do have people constantly stealing my data.
And without a non-pixel option (fuck google), I'm likely to go for to a competitor because, while their data security might not be as good as graphene, it is better than what I currently have.
I'm not saying you should trust every VPN provider. Some have shown to be nore trustworthy than others. Police have raided their datacenrers and not gotten anything (no logs). And they have gone to courts and said they don't keep that info. However if you don't trust your ISP, and purely use a VPN, the only info your ISP will get is that you use a VPN. Your encrypted bank packet that they saw before is now an encrypted vpn packet. The vpn will see the encrypted bank packet, but youmre right, you have to trust that they have more to gain by not looking and selling than they gain by selling your info and losing customers.
My Honeywell T10 is connected to my wifi, I use the Homekit on it with HA. But I setup a firewall rule in my router to block all outgoing internet traffic to a group if IPs. Then I added my smart vacuum, thermostat, printers, doorbell, etc to the group. It's a solid setup.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure this just encrypts your dns requests. After DNS resolution, the traffic packet headers still have destination/source ip addresses and they can reverse dns lookup the ip addresses. Might make it require a few extra steps, but they're the ones routing the traffic. Even your VPN traffic, they can't decrypt what's inside the packets, but they can see your traffic going to a known Mullvad vpn address in Norway or whatever.
Oh, is that why everyone hates matrix so much? I've been rocking it for years for me and my wife to communicate. It's been pretty solid. Calls/video calls are hit and miss, but the chat has been great. I've never federated it. Account creation is locked down, local auth, etc.
Eh, it'd be tricky in case of misses. Usually there's a vol+ and a vol- not really any vol(int) api to set it to a number. You could spam vol+/vol- to get to the right number, but it'd occationally miss one and start drifting.
While your ISP can't see everything, they can see metadata. They can see which websites you go to, which social media you use the most, where you bank, where you shop, etc. How much do you think it would take for your ISP to sell that data? If you happen to live somewhere there are laws againat that, you are slightly less at risk. Fines are only a deterrant if they're more than what's being offered for your data.
That being said, this only protects you against your ISP or other purely ipaddress based info gatherers. Apps/social media/websites don't purely use ipaddresses to track you.
I love it. Connected to snapper tools and it's saved me several times. I can boot to any snapshot in grub, and it's been way more reliable than Window's Restore Points ever have been.
Depends on the girl and the number of babies you've had. If you're on your 4th baby people will be able to tell sooner than your first.
For your first baby, generally it's unnoticeable for everyone in the first trimester including the mom. Second trimester is probably pretty safe too, this is when you might start looking a little fat by the end, but not really pregnant. Third trimester is when the majority of the weight is gained, and the baby grows the fastest. In the last month of the third trimester the baby gains like a pound per week.
I had a cable isp issued modem that did the same thing, except it was closer to every other week. I replaced the modem with a nice arris surfboard. Fixed the problem for me on Spectrum for the last two years. Only needed to reboot once every 6mo or so.
Lately though, they've been upgrading the network in my area (gigabit bidirectional cable, yay) but the service has sucked on and off for the past two months. I'll have bad days where my internet is struggling to hit 20mbps down. Rebooting my hardware rarely helps.
