Recently i noticed that even i don’t have an account on caller id apps, still it shows my details from who saved my info on their phone who uses caller id apps.

Hey everyone, so for the past few month I have been working on this project and I’d love to have your feedback on it....

Proton Mail, the leading privacy-focused email service, is making its first foray into blockchain technology with Key Transparency, which will allow users to verify email addresses. From a report: In an interview with Fortune, CEO and founder Andy Yen made clear that although the new feature uses blockchain, the key technology...

Does anyone that pays for proton also use it with a SO? We’ve been looking to pay for it but the family plan looks like an overkill for us. The viable alternative is paying for the Mail Plus plan for each of us but we are a bit worried that we won’t be able to share calendars....

Thanks Max!

Just heard of Lemmy today...

Looks like gitlab now requires account verification for new accounts in addition to email. Either phone number or credit card....

Just saw this update. I’ll quote from the previous article for a complete picture....

Hello, could someone recommended a keyboard for android that is a bit smart in predictive typing? I used to like swiftkeybefore it was bought by microsoft. Not that swiftkey itself was much better but I was not so privy conscious at that time....

Does anyone of you know filen.io? Do you trust it? The Pricing is so attractive and I never heard of that company before, so it seems a bit too good to be true. What do you think?

Can you recommend me some anonymous phone number services to use when creating account that requiring phone number verification?

I think we all draw a line between privacy and convenience and I think I found mine and settled into a comfort zone of sorts. I use Fedora 38. My browser is Mozilla Firefox with it’s “strict” setting. uBlock origin and uMatrix. When I need/want to use a site that doesn’t work due to blocked connections I relax the...

Hello all, I’m relatively new to the realm of self-hosting. Over the past few months, particularly in response to recent events, I’ve been actively advocating for privacy, security, and decentralization. Initially, I began by implementing Nextcloud for my family and friends, and later expanded to include services like...

Anybody know about this search engine ?...

I started some time ago using a teddit frontend with local subscriptions, and at some point it was hard for the one I picked to keep up, then I moved to libreddit, at that time libredd.it, then it stopped working and moved to libreddit.spike.codes, but it seems it stopped working as well, and finally I moved to libreddit...

Sorry I don’t have an english version of this article, this is the best source I could find for it....

Without naming names, there’s a well advertised grammar editing tool that’s available either as an app download or browser extension. This is something I’d value for a number of reasons (good grammar is important!) but I’m super cautious about anything I’m giving permission to watch what I’m typing....

This just blows my mind and makes me feel sick to my stomach that such company’s like CMG Local Solutions do this sort of thing even exist! 🤢🤮...

It’s a well-known fact that Google spies on users, which isn’t anything new. However, the fact that they are now using this as a reference in a marketing meme is insulting....

Privacy is not just an illusion; it’s a delusion. Things like privacy statements and permission to use cookies are little more than sophisticated propaganda. If you think for a moment the Overlords cannot prepare a dossier on you within minutes that would make your mother faint and your father die of shame, you’re living in...
