Good for Google (ikr) for basically telling other tracking/ad companies to f*** off.

Also, bad, for the monopoly reasons.

I see iOS folks getting told to use Private Relay(?) all the time (with i-something disabled). How is this any different than that, other than being run by G?

Not going to use it myself, but I guess its sort of a step in the right direction for the uninformed tech-illiterate. The next step would be to show the average person how to do the same thing without G’s help.

AnonymousLemming, in New Outlook update sends passwords and mails on private servers to MS. Ulrich Kelber, TheCommissioner for Data Protection of Germany plans to submit inquires on Tuesday

Don’t use Outlook for non-Outlook email services. Problem solved. I am required to use Outlook for my work email, but I keep all of my personal email separate, accessed with FOSS email clients.

ILikeBoobies, in Is there any Firefox extension to automatically reject cookie popups?

Remember to use Firefox containers, then you can accept all the cookies you want and they will never see outside of the container

It’s pretty laborious to do this for casual browsing though. The websites I visit regularly where it’d be worth configuring this aren’t the ones with cookies I’m worried about.

ILikeBoobies,

Found the answer

random65837, in Article 45 Will Roll Back Web Security by 12 Years

Funny all the excuses made by the sheep on how great the EU govt is for all their internet greatness when theyve proven at every front their even worse than the US. Which is an accomplishment.

They will eventually, they just won’t be as brazen about it

BestBouclettes, in Chrome not proceeding with Web Integrity API deemed by many to be DRM

Not proceeding yet. Will be implemented on another time with a different name and piece by piece instead.

This keeps popping up. Isn’t this mostly because ‘new’ Outlook is basically just a wrapper for owa?

Saff, in New Outlook update sends passwords and mails on private servers to MS. Ulrich Kelber, TheCommissioner for Data Protection of Germany plans to submit inquires on Tuesday

Honestly the thing that annoys me the most about this isn’t the privacy aspect. It’s the fact that they called it “new outlook”. Which means now at work I have to explain that no, this isn’t real outlook it’s just MS being useless wankers and not being able to come up with a new name for a new product. See also, teams vs teams for work and school. They did the same thing with Skype and Skype for business back in the day and still pisses me off.

Pyr_Pressure,

I fucking hate Microsoft so goddamn much for their bullshit naming process.

I also hate everyone for the stupid process of separating work and personal accounts. It’s caused me nothing but grief.

Great, Google and Cloudflare taking yet another chunk for the Internet. Becoming the middle-man in everything.

Centralize the internet MORE until there is only ONE SITE. Only then will it be PERFET.

Well Facebook tried that.

IphtashuFitz,

Isn’t Elon attempting that with X?

ndonkersloot, in Is there any Firefox extension to automatically reject cookie popups?

I started using consent-o-matic on my android phone in Mull, this does exactly what you describes. It accepts and rejects the settings you like.

Damn this was unexpected. So it seems they’ll just proxying / serving all email to Outlook apps through their servers. Damn Microsoft that’s really fucking anti-competitive.

Pyr_Pressure,

Oh, I fully put the blame on Microsoft for all of my emails issues that I’ve been having.

Microsoft is balls.

LoveSausage, in What can we do about major sites blocking VPN providers?
@LoveSausage@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Try the new stealth protocol. Never have any issues :)

privacybro, in What custom uBO filter lists do you use?

Anything beyond defaults will give you a permanent unique browser fingerprint, as ublock lists are detectable in the DOM

dummy,

fr?

Vexz,

Dunno. That would mean websites would know what filter lists inside an adblocker browser addon you use, which I can't imagine tbh. But I'd say it's a gamble. With more block lists you can achieve more privacy but maybe (if privacybro is right) fingerprinting you is easier. You decide what is the right choice to make here.
