rar, to piracy in Is BT over Tor still not recommened?

It’s never been recommended and it never was a good idea.

rar, to memes in Wtf duolingo

Practice what exactly, Duolingo?!

rar, to privacy in Medical devices and user privacy

The nature of his medical condition isn’t relevant here. It could be his blood pressure, heart beats, whatever that makes an insurance company charge a premium on that poor sucker.

rar, to linux in cheapest new computer running linux <$500

I assume you’re just getting into Linux? Avoid Chromebooks for this (running linux as beginner) - there are ways of running Linux, but they require some tricks dpending on the model.

rar, to selfhosted in In search for free domain I got one but some questions

Be careful OP that after first year you have to pay the ‘renew’ price, which is generally higher than ‘register’ price. A lot of cheap domain offers use that trick expecting users to become attached to their domains.

rar, to privacy in Medical devices and user privacy

I get your message, but I was not referring to the machine. I was referring that the what kind of data logged by the machine didn’t matter in the context of privacy.

rar, to privacy in Dark Patterns

It had enough eye candies for the casual market, but that was it. I still mourn for the death of IRC outside the tech-dev circles.

rar, to selfhosted in Self-hosted or personal email solutions?

Makes sense. I’m happy with my current provider but purelymail is a strong candidate for if I’m out of options.

Info please? All I’ve seen were offers around ~10 usd minimum for renewal.

rar, to privacy in Best way to get private phone number?

It really depends on where you are located. Some jurisdictions allow activation of SIM cards without personal info, some do not. Then there’s the matter of physical and financial surveillance.

But seriously, unless you are actually that desperate for some reason, why would you have a hobo pay for a burner phone? Wouldn’t that being recorded on camera be more suspicious?

rar, to privacyguides in Mullvad VPN - Infrastructure audit completed by Radically Open Security

Getting in trouble? It’s more like:

  • Server providers threatening to terminate business with Mullvad because some of its users used port forwarding to host contents that meant legal trouble.
  • Mullvad chose to terminate support for port forwarding in a transparent way and gave clear dates to prepare. This was done instead of selling off their users or collaborating with whatever legal threats they were facing.

I don’t like it, but at least I understand their business decision. Even if I took my business elsewhere, they have a solid point on transparency.

rar, to vexillology in Let it fly: Minnesota officially has a new flag

Very nice. More nice flags instead of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Provo,_Utah_(1989%E2%80%932015).svg.

rar, to selfhosted in Self-hosted or personal email solutions?

Gandi’s case hurts me. I had been paying for years but they kept raising their prices like dragonball z power levels.

rar, to selfhosted in Self-hosted or personal email solutions?

I was very tempted to go for this one, but couldn’t find info on whether this was a one-man operation or if there are any disaster recovery plans. Sounds cruel, but if that one single guy my email depends on gets hit by a bus…

rar, to selfhosted in Self-hosted or personal email solutions?

You mean those websites that instead of email input fields there are multiple horizontal stripes saying “Login with Google” and such?

I hate them, too… but I suppose it’s for the mobile crowd that don’t make distinctions between sms, fb/whatsapp messages, and email altogether.

I wonder if all those gmail accounts will be seen like yahoo addresses one day.
