Sharing this because it’s one of the most promising Android projects we recommend on Privacy Guides, and it would be a huge detriment to the Android/Privacy community at large if this developer is no longer able to continue this work :(...
I want to self host in order to run Nextcloud, Firefly III, Home Assistant, maybe Photoprism, and maybe a couple other things down the line. And I want it to be fast and with low maintenance....

First, it explains how SIM cards enable constant location tracking through communication with cell towers. Second, it delves into the autonomy of SIM cards, particularly proactive SIMs that can...
Little Rat - a browser extension for monitoring other extensions
"Little Rat is an open-source extension designed for network traffic monitoring. Easily view, monitor, and block traffic from other Chrome extensions on a per-extension basis."

Any fellow Aussies using any of these services and care to...
I know that there is a WIP for a future article about router platforms, but from the little I’ve read on the Github issue page and a few videos I’ve watched I decided to make this plan right here:...
