  • Unfortunately, Tinder doesn’t work and that is helpful to get in touch with the ladies. That app is too hell bent on location data which GOS handles more privately.

    NFC should work, it is just scheduled to be deactivated after 3 months if not used for security reasons.

    I think GOS is very user friendly and has many positive privacy and security enhancements. I would like to see if they can surpass sandboxed Google Play and officially support other repositories and updaters like Accrescent. Also, a standard way of securing traffic beyond encrypted DNS would be good such as a tor client like Orbot.

    Looking into the Veilid ecosystem might also be a source for further development ideas.



  • 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.




  • Do you want to show us what that looks like in assembly, ASCII from machine code? …ha, ha, ha, no!

    Depends on the device, I know. Such a pain without the higher level languages.

    What would it look like for ARM android touch screens? Just for one character…

    But if some characters go missing or are exchanged for others for no discernable reason, then might that be an exploit on a EC or assembly level?



  • 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.


  • Name calling like that should work well with the youth vote. Smart. Politics is just a shit throwing contest. The other side will probably follow suit with terms that fit the demonized adjectives popular among the demographics of their base.

    Contrary to the prevailing view that youth are rebellious, they always obey the patriarchy behind the scenes, the merchants of “the cool” dictating the popular image to them. Pretty hard to get milage out of calling a non-white woman creepy or weird. On the other hand, it is kind of a reflexive acceptance when those negative predicates are applied to any male over 20. Agreed. I think dicks of any age are weird and gross myself.

    But will their POLICIES improve our lives?
