    I have Tor, but it isn't suitable for all things. Neither is FF Klar/Focus and IceCat. I found that Chrome was required for boarding passes for Westjet. It is in Insular (FOSS version of Island- isolated from all apps). So we make do with imperfect combinations. I also recommend Blokada from F-droid. No ads on android and blocked ~200k trackers in a year.

  7. As #OnionMaximalists we strongly recommend using such #internetAnonymisers at all times, not just when you need to upload a photo of your itchy butt to they #lawyers who may handle your defense.

    Defend your #privacy everyday, and by so doing, help others do the same.

    Use TorBrowser and I2P.

  8. 🇷🇺 Russia's 'Sovereign Internet Law' has offered power to block websites.

    Some may recall the blocking of :tor: Tor in last weeks leading up to Ukraine.

  9. Readers of #investment site, #ZeroHedge may be interested to know its a Goog asset, without specifically expressing itself as such. Its served via G.

    Its a #GoOGlE domain and, we assert, #tracker feeding data to G and possibly other #frontRunners, about how ppl are using the oft-celebrated website.

    "#UseTor"? They see how far a person scrolls on pages (see #lazyLoading).

    While the site lists G in its disclaimer as a source of #news, G is noticeably absent from their #privacyPolicy.

  11. Erm, how long has the #NSW govt website been going through #Amazon?

    Sweet Jeebus.

    Also features Google and CloudFlare trackers… and non-integrity-checked JavaScript. But that's just a 2 minutes appraisal. See #UBI for more info.

  12. Bank accounts of #Canadians frozen, and #bitcoinExchanges co-opted by the neofascist #corporateState.

    People in Canada are treated as both #slaves and #terrorists

    …because effective #protest.

    Its as if we haven't been saying #BitcoinCoreFixesThis. We repeat for emphasis *Bitcoin Core* (and other #fullNode and #fullCustody systems).

    And that 80% of the exchanges are flecking #CloudFlare.

  13. CW: Popular retailer is cloudflare

    Their #branding is designed to excite, bold yellow and black, and everyone who works there need to show at least one tattoo.

    But alas #JBHiFi, the popular #electronics store, is #Cloudflare and leaks your interests and purchases and details to the #MITM.

    Avoid.

  15. When describing the ongoing #MITMAttack on #theInternet by the likes of #Amazon, #Cloudflare, #Microsoft, and #Akamai which 'backronym' (back acronym) might you prefer?

    • Mafia in the Middle
    • Megacorporation in the Middle
    • Monopolist in the Middle
    • Monopoly in the Middle
    • (something else…?)

    Please justify any given answer.

  17. Just a quick message to the #NGI at the #EuropeanUnion.

    Its not a great look that your webpage at ngi.eu fails to work without #JavaScript enabled.

    Seriously c'mon.

    It is a slick #loadingAnimation, though. Congrats on that.

    We stand by our opinion that grants are toxic things, and a #UBI that goes up slightly with age is how to achieve greater #equality and limit #waste.

  18. Watching #ElSalvador adopt #bitcoin via a wallet that appears to have been produced in the #USA by #BillGates' and #Microsoft's #LightningLabs just makes us feel somewhat uneasy.

    Is anyone else queasy?

    If we lived in ElSalvador we'd move our $30 worth of the #cryptocurrency off the #ChivoWallet at the very first opportunity. We hope this is possible.

  22. If you don't like what #BillGates is planning with #blockchain but see a #bitcoin future, you probably will want to avoid #lightningNetwork.

    Be a #fullNode

    Its a bit of effort but all good things require some effort.

  23. If you feel compelled to politely ask #BarnabyJoyce to continue to defend #JulianAssange and #Australia's sovereignty and #journalism, now that he's again, Deputy PM, find is contact information at (#GOOGLE FONTS WARN) :

    You may also wish to contact other MPs in your state or territory too:

  24. Every person who posted an image on #4Chan is known to Cloudflare, one cannot post an image via Tor on that site, last we tried.

    Cloudflare supports killers. #UseTor/#I2P, block all Cloudflare IPRanges, don't forget 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1. Kill the Cloudflare #closedSilo and #extremistFactory forever.

    We would make a "What did you do to stop the greatest MAN-IN-THE-MIDDLE-#CYBERATTACK in history, daddy" flyers, but we are too busy, right now.

    MURDER CLOUDFLARE NOW

    That would go against #BigTech's service to you.

    The internet is broken. There's #DNS, #Firefox now sends basically everything to #Google, #Amazon and #Cloudflare. Since 2017 even #GNULinux distros gather data as a "#connectivity" service, just in case you might find yourself using an open WiFi connection, they've named a #CaptivePortal. These are all "services".

    How about just #UseTor for #legacyNet?

    For your unpermissioned, fully decentralised internet needs there's #I2P?

    @echo_pbreyer

  26. Did you know, #Cloudflare monopolises Fediverse #dating instances.

    I'm sure they say it is to "protect" them. While also collecting lots of data that they can use later, you know, when the person finally learns things and wants to get into politics.

    This is why we are #OnionMaximallists.

    We say #useI2P, #useTor, and for the love of goodness, turn the #television off (unless there is an independent #communityStation that you actively, engage with).

  28. We apologise to anyone who, seeing our #UseTor hashtags decided to invest their energies into #Tor services.

    The best option that we have now seems to be #I2P, but maybe keep on the lookout for others.

    Wondering if anyone will be willing and able enough to fork Tor and #TorBrowser to accept addresses of reasonable length. If so, it might be worth someone offering a #BugBounty to find any potential security bugs also.

  29. Use Tor? Take a few min to complete this survey. Help Tor Project out w/protecting your privacy. survey. We all have a few minutes to fill this out. Let's do it!

    @eff thankyou. An informative article.

    We were informed that Google were supposedly dropping tracking users (next year) and wrote a post about it today.

    Although we were not informed about their latest wheeze, we assumed that they were working on something to protect their vast profits and invasive strategies.

    Its really unfortunate that #Mozilla are compromising #Firefox also.

    Its time to #DeleteGoogle.

    HELLO!

    This #browserExtension to inform the user about #BigTech sounds great! Is it #FOSS (#freeLicense and #openSource) we need to add Cloudflare to the list – pronto!

    And yes we did read the article…

    And still think could be the greatest #addon ever.

  32. @koherecoWatchdog
    We really respected #Reddit for the way they allowed Tor access and javascriptFree access the site (by accessing old.reddit.com).

    Its a shame that they are being forced to relinquish that. Its fairly obvious that someone connected to #WallSteet is bribing or #extorting them. #Cloudflare? #TheFed? Both?

    Whatever… the #legacyInternet is dead soon anyway. #VivaTheNewInternet

  33. In today's episode of "Hi #TorProject, Did You Strip This Out of Firefox?"…

    #Firefox lovingly scans the contents of the page you loaded for potentially #harmful keywords and phrases and sends them to #Google with the url for further analysis.

    Thanks Firefox! 😒

    #UseTor, haha

    Seriously though, if your website doesn't work over Tor, including the #contactForm, then it may struggle to be useful after the transition to the decentralised internet.

    It sounds like you are a fellow activist. Consider running it as an eepsite too, for maximum accessibility. Normally just involves using the same port number.
