Is there a way to make an interface or to use an app like Signal so your texts can't get "legally intercepted" via bluetooth from all car manufacturers?

    • What is your all time favourite quote?

  • I always think of the saying "it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and prove it", this is a simplified version.

    The original quote is “It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt” and it is often attributed to Abraham Lincoln, but that part is debatable.

  • Does anyone here use NewPipe on Android? I also have Grayjay but haven't really felt the need to get into it just yet. Just wondering if NewPipe is a bad choice for a YT client alternative?

    • Introducing Badger Swarm: New Project Helps Privacy Badger Block Ever More Trackers

    Jump

  • Great! I’d be interested in seeing a somewhat detailed comparison between UBlock Origin and Badger Swarm. I really liked the concept of privacy badger, and it seems like the latest updates may have addressed potential fingerprinting issues and improved its slower organic learning/blocking model. I’m definitely going to check this out. 👍

    • Apple's called Android a "massive tracking device" in an internal presentation

    Jump

  • I'll stand corrected on my original comment then. I hope that with Google being dragged through the courts at the moment, perhaps it may inspire more interest and conversation about how our data is handled and how it pertains to the implications around privacy.

  • that's great! Yeah I understand the privacy implications but had no idea about Dark Reader. That's why I love this community for answers like this. I'll look into it as I'd prefer to use Librewolf as my daily driver.

  • I love Librewolf, I just can't work for hours using a browser that has dark mode disabled in order to preserve its privacy features.

  • Probably just the "holy war" part, to be honest I didn't understand where that sentence was going either.

  • There are a few definitions but the west more often refers to the word as simply meaning "holy war". In Arabic terms the word can be broken down into Greater, the Lesser and the intellectual, it gets a bit more complicated and simply the "holy war" translation does not fully capture the complexity and nuances of the term.

  • Yeah I worked out that the problem was the scene optimizer, I never turned it on but I get that to a certain extent these things can be changed in the settings. It won't bring back my portrait fails though, and honestly, I still get less convincing realism than before which isn't why I chose the phone in the first place.
