been on uMatrix to default block all scripts, XHR and iframes for years but this would be a nice addition on top for the sites i actually need to enable it on. I mostly block all kinds of tracking but fingerprinting is always annoying

Damn, so much for “protecting the children” ig

I kinda love this. Using human creativity. The one AI cant reproduce(*), is such a good protest strategy.

*: I know theres more limitations than that, but still a solid idea for protesting.

This looks exactly like what I was looking for! Thank you!

Looks very interesting but I dislike the use of AI. How does this differ from yamtrack?

I read your initial post and I am so happy for seeing this update! Good luck with your instance!

Swede here, alot of our empathic and socialist values have gone downhill for many years but especially the last few years have seen a big rise to the right wing extremist party. I think most people here will find this cruel. “This is not the people we wanted to throw out! It was only The muslims, arabs, jews, colored people, unemployed…” etc etc etc.

Some of the new laws that has been passed with the right wing partiets have been incredibly stupid and enabled shit like this. My favorite is that its now illegal to insult law enforcement. There’s this old rhyme we taught kids “polis polis potatisgris” (“police police potato-pig”) which with current jurisdiction would be illegal.

So yeah, Sweden is doing great and is absolutely not turning in to yet another unempathic capitalistic americanized shithole. People keep buying the lies and turn against the less fortunate of society instead of actually seeing the problem.

The example was mostly a shitpost but it got the point across. And yes, ignorant/stupid people will always exist, en-masse actually. For varying reasons, be it cultural, education, emotional, religious or just pure ignorance, people end up in shit because they have different outlooks, needs and experiences. The reasons seldom matter to me since its usually not the victim that actively tries to end up in the shitter but the perpetrator that actively attempts to exploit them.

Luckily companies arent people, no matter how much US government wants them to be. They should, to the nit-pickiest of levels, be restricted by the law and punished when they break it.

Victim-blaming to me seems inherently ignorant in itself. How does one even come up with the idea of blaming someone whos the victim of the crime? No matter how ignorant or naive they seem. And especially when its from a well-known shit company like Microslop?

Idk what reason youd have to buy that and its honestly irrelevant. Just because a company is known for being shit doesnt mean we should just accept it and start calling people stupid when they get fucked over.

“Oh you decided to get treatment from USA Medicality Corp. Inc. and they killed you and your entire family. Damn youre such an idiot theyve been killing families for years!” is a bad take if you ask me. The company should be held liable for their actions.

Victim-blaming is the real stupidity here. Microsoft harasses its customers (again) and now the customers are the idiots?

This is the same type of propaganda Nvidia is trying to push. Jensen Huang saying “people should have planned better, the rising prices of hardware was imminent” is the exact same tactic of being the cause of the problem and still putting the blame of everyone else.

4€ a month for a VPS. Used to host a wireguard VPN and make my home server publicly accessible with restrictions

25€ a year for the domain name.

Smells copium right winger to me. But at the same time, a right wing extremist party member looking for party leader position wanted to fund “research on how feminization and declining intake of red meat correlates to increasing numbers of left leaning voters” so we cant all have brain cells ✊😔

I know theres nicotine pouch brands with up to 200mg per pouch. Idk how this person ended up in this state but i would guess they werent a regular nicotine user before.

I use nicotine pouches myself, not trying to defend it, its obviously bad. Compared to inhaling the giga cancer smoke from ciggarettes i do still believe it is better though. Although idk which crazy people go for the “end my life instantly” strengths.

Any source on that? As a european i am very interested on reading up on this!

Im running Jellyfin myself. Still havent ported it to my server tho, just running off a disk in my main PC. Whenever i get more storage on the server or just a proper one (currently just running an old laptop w like 500GB storage) I will try to move all of my socker containers and movies there.

I would want to write some kind of roadmap and define all the cloud based services id need, like NextCloud and other stuff id want available remotely, but that would be done tinkering since id have to configure a VPN for it 😬

As Pear said, its built on top of uBlock Origin, im pretty sure it has all of these same functionality with element blocking and filters built in.

This feels like a good post to mention AdNauseam! For anyone who wants an adblocker that helps more than just you! It basically blocks ads but also sends a click request to every ad that should have been loaded. The data being sent with this request contains spoofed garbage data that makes the tracking data sets lose value. It also keeps a funny metric on how much the estimated cost for your clicks is :)

Basically same,

• Linux and Graphene
• IronFox/Zen Browser with Adnauseam, Sponsorblock, DeArrow and ClearURLs
• Mullvad VPN with AdBlock (off because of Adnauseam).
• GrayJay instead of YouTube.
• SimpMusic + Locally downloaded songs for music.
• Local media server for movies

Only places i have yet to tighten privacy (AFAIK) is email and chats (did make a burner acc on Discord and deleted the old one though). I dont use social media apart from the fediverse. All those accounts are deleted.

Update:

I do use K9 Mail and Thunderbird for email clients and F-droid and Aurora Store as an app store replacement.

Can someone link the video? Im on phone and YouTube keeps breaking when trying to play it in the app.

Thank you!

Did i say malware is being installed? And am i not allowed to hypothesize?

I see the security hole. I imagine some ways it could be abused by an attacker. I admit I am not knowledgable in extension development to make it clear those are hypothesized ideas. Hell theyre even phrased like question? I even agree this is not directly malware and that saying so is a stretch.
