I use ProtonVPN on both Linux and Windows and the difference is night and day.. well... more accurately only on Windows because it doesn't even launch on Linux.. this what made me not invest much time on other Proton products ( because I know they're going to suck on Linux )
hehe, reminded me of this sketch
fair point, but like Edward Snowden once said: "perhaps the fundamental rule of technological progress: if something can be done, it probably will be done, and possibly already has been." he was talking about surveillance tech and programs.
What it archives though and afaik is intended for is the possibility of easily and quickly "erasing" the disk by just overwriting that encryption key a couple times, I don’t remember if that used a special tool or something but if that is useful to you it probably wouldn’t be hard to find more info on this.
first of, apologies for the late reply.. this reminds me of when I ( not so long ago ), used to overwrite random data into HDDs using Eraser, before selling my laptops or switching a company laptop, I hear SSDs are designed to last longer, so that practice ( of writing random data so it'll erase the sensitive data ), is "kind of" a time waste now.. but I guess it'll make it hard to retrieve that data, unless the attacker has some specialized software and hardware
Samsung is a reasonably trustworthy company, not from US/UK, not Chinese, so if they say they have a clean implementation of this I’d trust them
I wouldn't trust any company based only on their claims, they need to document ( explain how it works ), develop things in the open ( publish the firmware ), the schematics, even the CAD drawings.. like what the folks at System76 and Framework are doing..
That said, it sure sounds cool to have that level of protection, if only Samsung wasn't a shitty company already ( in my book )
Would be kinda a national security issue for them if it wasn’t seeing how Samsung is everywhere in gov an private sector in Korea.
I'm speculating here, but it wouldn't be far fetched if they designed a secure encrypted clean hardware for the government with military grade encryption as they like to call it, while the end users receives only enough encryption power to protect against normie threat actors like a spouse...etc companies have these policies where they provide a premium/quality products for businesses and governments but cheap or in many cases poorly made products to end users .. like Windows Home
Telegram adds option to let users report content on app two weeks after CEO Pavel Durov's arrest After almost 2 weeks of CEO Pavel Durov's arrest, Telegram will start moderating private chats as well.
this all seem confusing, there's no such thing as "private" chats on Telegram, only secret chats which are E2EE, well even their encrypting is questionable
really? It's gold and white for me.. xD
Sony PlayStation 2
THANK YOU 🤍, I can't upvote this enough.. It's awesome and sounds human.. now I can git rid of my Googled phone.. 🥳
Edit: after a test run, it doesn't seem to have a way to change the language, and installing a different apk with different language removes the old one.. 😔
Outdated and probably unmaintained, runs 32bit code, and extremely buggy... RHvoice is leaps ahead
If not a Pixel with GOS, I would say the second best pick is a Fairphone with CalyxOS.. And don't worry about the updates, they'll provide extended support for as long as possible, which could be years, CalyxOS is also awesome
Huawei, Xiaomi and Samsung phones
- main reason: anti user freedom, and locking you in to their system, it's extremely hard to wipe out your phone in order to sell it if you have a Samsung account linked to your phone, and they make it hard to flash a custom ROM, imagine buying a phone with your own money and you still need the manufacturer consent to do what you want with it..
- confusing and slow UI
- Ads everywhere on the UI
- bloated with games and useless apps
- they don't take security seriously at all ( slow updates )
- short update period
- they lie in their marketing by giving big numbers ( battery capacity and camera quality for example )
And last but not least, they kill your apps
Thank you, it worked on Fedora.. and it works way better than the app, the app used to disconnect every now and then, but this method doesn't, interesting
