This isn’t just inconvenient—it’s risky. People have to transfer unencrypted files across devices, risking leaks. And what about users who *only* have a phone? They’re forced to manually retype every password. Not everyone on the planet has money for a laptop, especially in third world countries. #Proton #ProtonPass #passwordmanagers 2025-09-12T20:58:47Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0wartshxj02550k8sqml89ywkc4a96n0jy65mhh3epm8ug2vz7fczyqa5s4pff6xvgu649w2ssuzxjj9h5et4rkp0nqv0dszspmxtmackg97nm09 We got an A on the <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1ddjmusj4qku96ntm0832mh7fdjawk3yjduqvz9kzlatg74khrr3qpfp75g" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Terms of Service, Didn't Read</span> (<span class="italic">npub1ddj…p75g</span>)</a></span> app 💪.<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/114/341/529/640/013/360/original/63b5c7bd9d2ca31d.png"> <br/> 2025-04-15T10:35:42Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs86nqmq592hmarz0yea7d06f2ecfs6ts6kg68z86x73ua3034nluszyqa5s4pff6xvgu649w2ssuzxjj9h5et4rkp0nqv0dszspmxtmackg48exxn The lastest release of Privacy Guides is now live!<br/><br/>One of the biggest changes are the following:<br/><br/>* We added SecureBlue, a hardened linux distribution based on Fedora Silverblue.<br/><br/>* The removal of Canary mail, as we do not like their latest shift towards AI inclusion into their application.<br/><br/>* And last but least, we now recommend social networks with our first recommendation being #Mastodon !<br/><br/>Thank you to all contributers!<br/><br/>You can read all other changes here: <a href="https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/2025-04-15/26713">https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/2025-04-15/26713</a> 2025-04-15T07:34:49Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs8xkafun9z996m6yl4gpz0sutpgv6e0znzaf9hxs440d0x727vjaczyqa5s4pff6xvgu649w2ssuzxjj9h5et4rkp0nqv0dszspmxtmackgq4decx Got some crazy statics from Privacy Guides.
