Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•In how many languages can you count to 10?English
2·10 months agoThanks for sharing your story.
If I weren’t born Iranian, I’d learn Persian too just for the beautiful poems and songs that I haven’t seen in any other language (Arabic and Urdu could come close though).

I used to be able to do so in Esperanto and Arabic as well but not anymore.

Mullvad Browser comes with fingerprint blocking mechanisms of Tor Browser, without connecting to tor. I recommend it.
I’d rather let some EU company like Qwant use my anonymized data, to hopefully someday build their own index, than use Google by proxy (except when neccessary, of course).

62·1 year agoNever heard of forcing VPN providers to block something. Kinda defeats the purpose. Long live Tor I guess?

Development is always a lot harder when you need to consider all the privacy aspects. When you don’t, you can be Telegram and give fancy features real fast.
I mean you can educate yourself about cryptography and find the “backdoor”, the source code is out there for both the server and the client. And I assure you there are a lot of people in academia who would love to do that and get lots of citations, but no one has ever done so, so maybe there is none? That is if we don’t consider all the security audit commisioned by Signal itself on its app/server.
