Use Librewolf if

• You do not approve of Mozilla’s direction with Firefox (I personally don’t have an issue)
• You don’t want to be fingerprinted by every websites
• Want to be very privacy conscious

If these are not your requirements, stick with Firefox. When you switch to Librewolf, you have to give up some QoL features (dark mode, adaptable screen size and more). Unfortunately, privacy in the modern web requires some sacrifice.

Crowdstrike: If you sue us, we won’t provide you with security anymore

Big companies: :(

(This is just satire)

They think ads are just the normal price you pay for surfing part of the web

Remember folks, Chromium project is under Google’s control. They don’t care about web-standards. They just make their own standards since they have a 70% market share. The only notable Chromium fork which is worth mentioning is Ungoogled Chromium.

I would like to add Librewolf, which is = Firefox - (Mozilla tracking/recommendations) + security hardening

Don’t expect it to behave like a normal browser. If you think some feature is disabled, it’s to avoid browser fingerprinting, not because it’s buggy. Read their FAQ before committing to the browser.

People (the general populace) think that if a group visibility is set to Private, then it’s truly private 🤷🏻

Do not share the image in a private Facebook group. Don’t post it on popular direct messaging services.

The only way (which I still don’t trust), some privacy-preserving E2E encrypted file storage server or (which I trust) via your own Matrix server.

When Microsoft bans installation of legacy Win32 apps, it will be the death on Windows.

I guess we were all sideloading apps on Win 7 and other prev gens

Russians: We had a nuclear incident

Americans: it must be really bad then

Russians: We never said it’s bad

Americans: Listen, if it was not bad, you wouldn’t even admit you had a nuclear incident.

Many routers have a functionality to create a guest wifi. These usually run on a separate VLAN so that it can’t access other devices on the network. After creating this guest wifi, you have manually disable internet access on this but keep the wifi on.

Unfortunately the process varies between router to router.

Good point. We can have a honeypot wifi. Check my other comment in the thread.

I think for the TVs internal wifi, it’s better to create a honeypot Wi-Fi exclusively for it, or a VLAN. It will constantly try to send data and fail. If we don’t let it connect to anything, the TV might start sniffing for other open networks.

TV: mamma mia!

but the smart fridge in your upstairs neighbor’s kitchen could still be helping with smuggling your data out

I can understand that if you have a Samsung TV and a Samsung fridge, they can talk with each other. But will it work if you have a fridge from a different OEM? (I’m assuming the OEMs haven’t formed a cartel for illegal data smuggling)

This is why you need to do DNS hijacking to handle hardcoded DNS requests.

Sorry for being paranoid but can the TV piggyback the connection used by the the streaming device/android box to send data back to the TV OEM?
