iOS Browser: why Firefox Focus is better than DDG Browser?

I saw that PG recommends Firefox Focus but not DuckDuckGo browser (I use the latter, together with Snowhaze). Any specific reason why Focus is privacy-superior than DDG?

Pixel on GrapheneOS

How did you use one or two pixels in GrapheneOS? When you use a sim card,Shelter....

Because I always hesitate to put a sim card in my secondary pixel, install Shelter if it's worth to install it or not. When you don't use a pixel with a sim card, how do you do it? With an application I don't know or just in a faraday bag?

Encrypted and Anonymous DNS via custom DNScrypt-proxy setup vs Cloudflare DNS

Hi! I have a question concerning my set up for handling DNS requests. Just a heads-up: I'm not the most tech-savvy guy on the block. If I've misused terms or failed to explain something properly, please let me know!

I didn’t like the idea of using my ISP’s DNS resolver, so I decided to look into alternatives. I installed DNScrypt-proxy on my computer (Mac, macOS 12) to take advantage of the possibility of encrypted DNS. I even took the extra time to set up a DNS relay system for anonymous DNS. I’ve been running with this for over a year now and it’s great, but I’m about about to migrate to a new machine and I’m wondering if it’s worth the effort to set it all up again.

While I would be willing to do it again if there’s a huge benefit, I’m curious if there is much of a benefit as opposed to just using Cloudflare as my DNS resolver? It would be a hell of a lot easier to go into my settings and type in 1.1.1.1 once and be done than to download, install, and set up DNScrypt-proxy again on a new machine and take the additional time to modify it further to add relays for anonymous DNS.

Are bluetooth speakers a liability when turned off?

I was reading about speakers sending sounds a human can’t here to other devices and such. If they (bluetooth speakers) are turned off, can they still send or receive data? What about other bluetooth devices?

I want to go all wired so that they can be unplugged but want a few bluetooth things

Looking to self-host a permanent number for SMS that won't be identified as VOIP.

I recently found out the difference between VOIP numbers and non-VOIP and seeing that most places do not support sending 2FA codes to VOIP numbers.


Anyone already researched this?

Any active umatrix fork?

I've been using umatrix for a long time but it's unmaintained for now. I tried to find a fork and the only thing i've found is nuTensor, which also seems unmaintained.

GrapheneOS

I have some questions about GrapheneOS

1.I followed his instructions from Sandboxed Google Play,I opened Google Play Store then sign in. Can I uninstall GP or leave and install Aurora Store?

2. If I have created several profiles, if I do not want to receive a sms/call through the profile option, will it have tracks by the provider ?

3. Is it useful to have Shelter if I use Sandboxed GP ?

4. Is it better to use DNS applications like Nebulo or Private DNS by GrapheneOS ?

5. Can I use a public WiFi with VPN or a cell phone like LTE-only mode by GOS recommendation with VPN when I am outside ?

How to dual boot Windows and Ubuntu with full disk encryption?

Set up:

I have a laptop with 512G SSD and it does not have a second slot for another SSD

I want to dual boot Windows for school stuff with Ubuntu for normal use and the problem is that I also want full disk encryption. So I have thought of a simple way like this:

Install Windows -> install Ubuntu -> full disk encrypt with veracrypt on windows

Will veracrypt encrypt my ubuntu partition also? How to do it the right way?

Preparing for cyberattacks/digital war?

Hey All,

What can I do to make my personal computer more secure? I almost want to factory reset it because of all the junk/permissions I've allowed to accumulate over the last few years. I already have the usual browser extensions installed, but what else can I do to protect my computer as best I can from digital attacks?
