Mozi sat is such a cool idea. https://spacenews.com/china-is-developing-a-quantum-communications-satellite-network/

Quantum entropy might even defeat timewave...

You may find these readings interesting. Would enjoy hearing from you if you do!

Unfortunately, Tinder doesn't work and that is helpful to get in touch with the ladies. That app is too hell bent on location data which GOS handles more privately.

NFC should work, it is just scheduled to be deactivated after 3 months if not used for security reasons.

I think GOS is very user friendly and has many positive privacy and security enhancements. I would like to see if they can surpass sandboxed Google Play and officially support other repositories and updaters like Accrescent. Also, a standard way of securing traffic beyond encrypted DNS would be good such as a tor client like Orbot.

Looking into the Veilid ecosystem might also be a source for further development ideas.

tor (TBB) doesn't work for everything and most people want something fast and convinient that only takes clicking a few buttons to get working. They will think it is too much work.

I recommend Brave browser which can use tor in private browsing mode but also has a regular browser with encrypted DNS (cloudflare, https strict, and shields) for things like banking, shopping, and online accounts (that might help to have a password manager for).

Also, Tor browser does not have any passthrough for security keys but Brave based on chromium does. Tor browser does not have a password manager.

Firejail should work on a profile for Brave as sandboxing is always helpful. TBB can be sandboxed easily, however.

This "multi-tiered" approach would be better for most people who aren't just accessing a handful of onionsites that replace or are in opposition to an entirely different set of services than those usually accessed on the conventional internet (online banking, social media, a few publication sites, and a search engine).

They made a mistake. As history proves, a big one. But any technical company could. So did the makers of cyclon. Apple or Windows could. The AI could exterminate us all as useless humans with low worth. The values of the current CEO should matter if they translate into real world policies, such as, defending human rights.

Don't use Discord. That is a major vector for attack. Seen it happen myself.

Even Sandboxed Google Play has problems.

I don't think there is any equivalent of Graphene for Mac hardware. With Pegasus and Predator software around, phones are very hard to secure.

Rely on tor browser and torrifying where you can with Orbot (Guardian Project).

Instead of Telegram, how about Signal and Briar? We just heard about how Telegram's executive got hit and may now have to bow to pressure. Signal has kept its design integrity as far as we know.

Minimal apps are better than many to reduce attack surface. Maybe try accessing some of those services on other devices instead of on your personal tracking device.

Yep. They all pretty much just jack with the flag.

Especially if it is at someone else's expense so they can get a rush off of subjugating defenseless civilians and leading off sadistically with the enslaved, risking nothing in their hidden-bunker cowardice.

Also a nickname for Molybdenum which makes Iron stronger like torrifying Signal makes encrypted communication stronger by protecting metadata from interception.

 

How could 2FA be disabled if you need 2FA in order to login to disable it and my free OTP+ is biometric protected?

 

Do you know how 2FA is disabled without your consent on Lemmy.world?

Does anyone know what the technical design model of this project might entail? Its last iteration was a tor exit node, which is straightforward enough, but how would you design a gateway router accessible via WiFi that would direct all traffic over tor? This is not idea. The client (or full OS like TAILS or Whonix) is ideal and many common sites block tor (like this one). There must be a design for combining proxies with tor to get this AP to work practically for conventional use, as it seems to be advertised. Maybe early on, before tor got blocked so much, it did work as simply as it sounds.

Has anyone read the book or theories that inspired this work? Probably perfect for this community. I want to see if I can get a hold of a copy.
