Doesn’t that just hide the specific content? They still know where the content is coming from?
And not everything done online, especially things that can get you in trouble with authorities (like torrenting copyrighted material) can be done through https.
That doesn’t really make a difference if no traffic history is saved. If there are no logs of traffic saved, there’s noting that can be tied to the account.
Yes, any VPN provider will see what’s in your traffic, no way around that…ever…no matter who you choose
however not all VPN providers will keep a record of your traffic, so it may only exists briefly in their servers as it passes through and then it’s gone. This is how companies like mullvad operate. Even if the cops come with a warrant, there will be no evidence because nothing is saved.
Yeah but like I said, anyone who calls you will just hear the “busy” tone or direct to voicemail. They won’t get the “invalid number” tone like OP wants.
They do, at least where i live (not UK, but still Europe)
AFAIK this is not possible for a working number. Failed dial tone and “text message not delivered” are handled on the carrier level, if you block a number then they’ll just get a “busy” tone when calling and nothing when texting. You can’t blanket reject everything while retaining data, unless you disconnect from cellular and only use WiFi.
I’m seriously baffled by the amount of people in this thread having issues with something as simple as boiling plain rice. What the hell, its not fucking rocket science. Do you have trouble boiling pasta too!?
Just turn down the heat when it starts boiling and you won’t have any mess at all. Boiling pretty much anything without using a lid is just plain dumb and a waste of energy. The only exception being if the point of boiling is to reduce water content.
Add rice and water in a 1:2 ratio (by volume, eg. 2dl rice to 4dl water for 3-4 people), add salt and heat to a boil. When it boils, turn down heat so it only just simmers slightly and wait until no excess water is left. Keep the lid on the whole time. This method works with jasmin and basmati white rice for me.
Yeah but putting it on 4G gives them a reason to charge for continuous use of the system and lock them in to their web based proprietary platform.
Man I just wish all unsolicited ads would be banned, it would make the world a much better place. If I want promotional content or information about product portfolio from somewhere, I will request it directly.
it’s a problem because graphene os doesn’t pass google play safety check, or whatever it is called. They are apparently not able to make the sandboxes play services good enough to pass so the app accepts it’s validity.
The thing is, I’d need the government 2FA app (which doesn’t work in graphene) when logging in to my bank on a browser as well, so that doesn’t change anything.
And I can’t do anything, I can’t check my digital mailbox (not email, we have something specifically for official communication with bank, government etc.), I can’t log in to check messages from my kids school, I can’t order a doctors appointment…you get the picture.
No that doesn’t work either, but we use a 2FA app to enable mobile banking access, SS access, school communications/message board etc., basically anything that requires you to prove your identity. That app doesn’t work in graphene at all, it flat out refuses and states the OS isn’t secure or the app isn’t installed from a valid source, so all things dependant on this doesn’t work on graphene.
Edit: a lot of other things also fail because graphene apparently doesn’t pass the google play safety check either.
People contemplating moving to graphene, do be aware that banking etc. absolutely can be a major PITA on graphene as well. Several official apps used where i live cannot work in graphene, even with sandboxed play services installed, making day-to-day life functionally impossible with graphene. Luckily reverting to stock android is easy, although I probably wouldn’t have bought a pixel phone if I was planning on using stock OS.
We have public records with name, address and phone number where i live. If you don’t want to be searchable in this registry, you just login to citizens self-service (or go to townhall if you don’t want to/can’t do it yourself online) and select that you want “secret address”, and your info is purged from the list. No need to go through weird and semi-sketchy third parties to get it done. I’m not sure how other EU countries deal with this.
Yeah just be aware that this seems to be reversed automatically. I have done this multiple times for google play and other google apps I have no need for (android auto for example), and they always end up being force updated and re-enabled.
Isn’t Klarna a credit service more like a loan where you then distribute the payments over the next few months? You sign a contract and stuff just like bank loans, it’s not the same as making a bank transfer at all.
Yes there are, your data still resides in their servers as it passes through them though. But like I said, as soon as it has been processed there is no log of it so it is only present briefly and not in a persistent manner.
