  • Don’t use Discord. That is a major vector for attack. Seen it happen myself.

    Even Sandboxed Google Play has problems.

    I don’t think there is any equivalent of Graphene for Mac hardware. With Pegasus and Predator software around, phones are very hard to secure.

    Rely on tor browser and torrifying where you can with Orbot (Guardian Project).

    Instead of Telegram, how about Signal and Briar? We just heard about how Telegram’s executive got hit and may now have to bow to pressure. Signal has kept its design integrity as far as we know.

    Minimal apps are better than many to reduce attack surface. Maybe try accessing some of those services on other devices instead of on your personal tracking device.





  • Ah, that must be it. 2FA is still a very good security feature to have.

    But there is nothing only you know that is still useful because a secret must be shared in order to be useful (unless you just have full disk encryption and then when it is unlocked and network connected, it is still vulnerable). In short, admins could change your password since you are not the sole admin of your own server but then you would have to have mass appeal to be “useful”, i.e. popular.

    In theory, Tim Cook might have a keybearer who could usurp the throne with all the proprietary OEM crypto keys that only the Company knows, but everyone knows who the CEO is and the keybearer could get in big trouble unless he had an army…

    Things can be changed on the server side and the network is not the same as the device: these are technology truths some people refuse to ever understand.







  • What do you think about sites that don’t work with all variety of DNS (not even cloudflare) or proxies or tor or Firefox or Chrome or varied AP or varied devices–in short, all access combinations?

    Dead link? Total Information Awareness roving tap castiron?

    Can you unblock 404 Media podcasts on Signal and Identity Hacked? Tried both Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
