Anybody out there using Mullvad's browser? If so what's your impression so far?...

The same way you can hide your location with the proper use of a VPN, I would like to host a website, but have proxy the server with a "VPN" to the outside world....

Hi, I wanted to know if any of you have info regarding some specifics of Air VPN....

Mull hasn't been working in the last update so I'm trying to downgrade without losing my settings, but that requires me to delete the app first then reinstall. Is there a way to backup/export my settings?...

As I continue to look for new tools to increase my data/identity protection, I came across jmp.chat as an interesting phone service. It seems like a potentially nice way to privatize phone and SMS more, but I'm a novice at all of this and wonder if anyone else has done more research on this matter. Does anyone have opinions on...

Hi there,...

It feels like we have a new privacy threat that's emerged in the past few years, and this year especially. I kind of think of the privacy threats over the past few decades as happening in waves of:...

I understand his reasoning for not wanting old episodes to be available through his main channel, but it would be a really nice resource to have old archived episodes available for listening....

I first saw the announcment in r/save3rdpartyapps (my only sub). The AMA is taking place at r/reddit, no time was given, just says "today"

...but I apparently had opted to receive payment through Venmo. Now Venmo wants me to set up a business account. Any idea what's up with that?

I've been using Openboard as my keyboard since 2020, and I'm pleased with it. However, I've noticed that the latest update was back in August 2022. Does this mean it's deprecated?...

Hi all, I understand that everything will be archived forever - but what is the best way to clear our my current account and all of its history?
