Yeah, IOS and stock android are not acceptable if you care about this stuff

On graphene my bluetooth and wifi turn themselves OFF if I haven’t been connected for a few minutes

That’s the issue with the patriot act, they’ve been allowed to do warrantless searches for a long time now.

FISA court if they run into any friction

Yeah, I don’t have an issue with enabling javascript for trusted sites. I do wonder if there was a technical reason for them using the JS frontend, since you would think they’d be ideologically opposed to doing so.

Having an option would be great but at the end of the day as long as it works I will happily use it

Thank you for your efforts on this.

This hackliberty onion instance is going to be shut down this month, so it’s a relief to see you working on your own.

While that does fool many websites now, it’s trivial to see through if they have any level of competence.

Since they use totally different engines, there’s no way to make gecko look like chromium

I agree I close them if I see that, but just so you know a combo of bypass paywalls clean, and ublock origin (go into settings and enable all cookie notices, social widgets, and annoyances) will bypass 95% of those without you even knowing

If that fails go to web.archive.org and paste the URL, that works most of the time. There’s a web extension called “web archives” that makes this easy if you’re ok with other extensions

Cool! Hope they stick with it

I’ve been on debian stable for quite a while, it hasn’t been an issue yet.

If it’s something that needs to stay updated I use flatpaks which are usually available nowadays.

… I understand the concept of a honeypot

If you think that’s what’s going on here you don’t understand simplex at all

Hackliberty is one of the most active SimpleX groups

I’d urge you not to disregard the tech because media hit pieces

Yeah my steam input configs are crazy

I have a whole system for desktop navigation which I’ve grown to really like

I’ve recently taken to using touchpad touch as a button chord modifier and it is soo nice.

Yeah, that’s really the most straightforward solution unfortunately.

In case you’re not already familiar look into sunshine/moonlight for quick access to the windows machine

If you need to use abusive windows software while retaining some privacy you really have 2 options:

1. Have a separate PC with windows and your games installed. Isolate your activities so all your normal work and personal stuff is on linux, and then you switch input on your display, or use sunshine/moonlight to access windows when you want to.

2. Use linux and do all your gaming etc. in a windows VM. This is what I do but it is not easy to set up, if you’re interested in this idea keep it in mind and come back to it later.

If you’re using VM hostile software though which it sounds like you are, #2 becomes even more complicated so I say bite the bullet and do #1.

Dualboot is pretty ass and breaks all the time. I strongly suspect that was part of your issue

I am baffled to read you had to troubleshoot your linux installation every day, what kind of distro were you using?

Sorry you didn’t have a good time.

If you know what you’re doing yes (not guaranteed to work in all games), but you’re always at constant threat of being potentially banned.

The info is hard to find but I assure you tons of people play anticheat games in VMs all the time. I personally avoid those games so I don’t know the specifics of all the tricks they do to hide the VM.

Being it’s a VM I could see some people just restoring from a template if they get banned and not really caring. No way to be hardware banned afaik.

This VM detection and VM anti detection is a reguarly evolving arms race, and some games invest a LOT more effort into staying on top of it than others.

There is no evidence. safety is about staying multiple steps ahead and risk mitigation when possible.

Centralized servers are a single point of failure that could be compromised in the future.

My contact’s devices they use signal on are insecure and could be easily compromised in the future.

SMS/Cell network in general are insecure as hell and I avoid it as much as possible.

Why would I expose all that sensitive data when there’s literally no need to? Simplex works great for me.
