As is usual in these cases, this is not legal in the EU and they cannot “legally” do this. However they might still choose to take the risk or factor in the cost of litigation.

I use cryptomator with my cloud storage to encrypt all my files.

Missing option that I use:

Free Google Drive mounted with rclone and then eCryptfs filesystem mounted on the Google Drive mountpoint.

I get the free space and Google only sees encrypted files.

not bad too, i will not edit the body with that because i think it can be against the ToS of Google, and if not and that’s become a popular solution, that will be for sure in it then.

You can loose your account so easily with them, so its better to be “reliable” ^^

zaph,

I love you so much right now

Yet another reminder that the cloud is just a fancy name for someone else’s computer.

Not really that fancy. It’s just a marketing euphemism. The giving of a cool name to something very mundane.

You’re right, it’s just a clouded way of saying 'someone else’s computer '.

derpgon,

Of course it is. Just a reminder that IaaS > SaaS. Host your own stuff, it’s not that hard, amd nobody will come snooping.

Don’t forget Syncthing, I always suggest it first since it doesn’t require a server or advanced knowledge to work.

Yeah true,
Holidays or not, I’m in 420 consumer mod, I don’t think XD. I edit :p

milicent_bystandr,

Syncthing is great!

It's almost 2024 and we still don't have any significant open source project for cloud storage privacy.

Nextcloud,
Protondrive,
Bare os self hosted ? Termux + rsync or scp + bash,

Its just an “niche” business the privacy for now, except VPN 😑😑🙄

toastal,

rsync was created in 1996

stewsters,

It really depends what you are using it for and how safe you want to be.

You could just use syncthing to keep a directory on your laptop synced with your home desktop. Still goes down if your home burns though.

You could do it with your friends house if you don’t mind him being able to see your stuff. You could even have backups saved somewhere else.

It’s a lot of work and cognitive load for the average person though.

Link,

Nextcloud?

“Third-party AI services are only used when customers actively engage with Dropbox AI features which themselves are clearly labeled,”

Should be fine since I never ever use DB then.

I would recommend proton drive as a great replacement if you want something that doesn’t need a server

The problem with cryptomater in my mind is eventually with quantum computing the encryption will be cracked. Even if you delete the file its stored somwhere else in their backups. There will be a treasure of good information even if its 10 yearas from now to be harvested.

lud,

encryption will be cracked

We don’t know that yet.

Invidious has a related content option, it’s in the settings where you should definitely already go to ensure the proxy option is turned on too.

some_guy, in Indian journalists targeted by Israeli spyware again: What do we know?

We know that Israel is unethical.

stolid_agnostic, (edited )

And recently India too. There’s a hacking for hire scandal going on beyond just this incident. Worse: it was Indians hacking Indian journalists using Israeli spyware.

rolling_resistance,

In this story, Israel “just” provides the software.
