Will it boot into fast boot when starting up with like pressing the volume up or volume down key at boot? Because as long as you can get into fast boot, you can fix it.

As somebody who’s fucked up with custom ROMs several times and made bricks out of my phone, they are soft bricks and can be fixed. Sometimes it’s not easy, but it can be fixed.
Not at the moment. No. I used to have one of those Netgate firewalls using pfsense i could do vpn on but i really didnt see the point. By using ControlD as my DNS i block known malware, ads, and trackers for free. Obviously that does not protect from everything, but it goes a long way towards helping.
I use ControlD on my router and mobile devices
Very true
Because to go to a clearnet website through the tor network, you have three hops. And to go to a hidden service, you have six hops.
Clearnet: You, guard middle, exit, website <-> website, exit, middle, guard, you
Onion service You, guard, middle, your rendezvous, service rendezvous, service middle, service guard, service <-> service guard, service middle, service rendezvous, your rendezvous, your middle, your guard, you.
All those hops add latency because of having to traverse anywhere between three and six different networks over the internet.
As much as it slows down the internet, it seems like it might be worth it to just start using tor at all times for everything.
It eats them like cookie monster https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ye8mB6VsUHw
Most likely it’s just Reddit making their service shit. I stopped using it last year and blocked it from all search results and now don’t have to worry about it because Google is the only one that can search it anyway and I haven’t used Google in years.
I don’t know if you watch science and futurism with Isaac Arthur, but if you don’t, you probably should. And he has a quote that I think applies quite well.
“Keep it simple, keep it dumb, or you might end up, under SkyNet’s thumb.”
Firefox downloads a spike by 30 million. Will be the next headline.
Skynet here we come
Absolutely this. Been using KeePassDX for years and its made my life so much easier. I am waiting for it to support passkeys so i can start using them where possible.
I use Control-D, both on Android, through DNS over TLS, and at the router level, so that I’m protected from ads and malware, no matter whether I’m on cellular data or on Wi-Fi.
As soon as KeepassDX supports it i absolutely will be making the switch where possible since it is more secure.
This combined with using a DNS over HTTPS or DNS over TLS that filters out things such as Control D is golden
They have several levels on their free DNS. Level zero has no filtering at all. Level one filters out known malware and shit. Level two filters out known malware and advertising. And level three does known malware advertising and social media.
True, the only other option is something like simplex through tor. There are also p2p options like meshtastic as well.
I think that really depends on where you are. Here in the US, for example, IPv6 is pretty darn well adopted. And even 45% of Google’s internet traffic is done over IPv6.
IPv6 doesn’t need CGNAT. So as long as it’s capable of doing IPv6, it can directly communicate peer to peer using globally unique addresses. How do I know this? Simple because my ISP on IPv4 is completely CGNAT and I cannot get anything past it. So I am completely forced to use IPv6 for any service I want to run and access from outside my network.
Financial institution security is quite frankly a freaking joke. My bank only has the options for 11 character passwords at maximum. It’s like oh come on that is way too easy these days
