it’s an “always-on vpn connection”. NetGuard passes through the apps in the exception list unfiltered
in netGuard you can create exceptions for apps that “do not work with” a vpn

This app is a simple to use PDF Wallet. That means it takes over the task to store and display your most important PDF certificates.
you’re on a piracy community but you’re licensing your comments?
if you don’t respect other’s licences, why should they respect yours?
time to work on your slingshot skills

PSA: We’ve received questions about push notifications. First: push notifications for Signal NEVER contain sensitive unencrypted data & do not reveal the contents of any Signal messages or calls–not to Apple, not to Google, not to anyone but you & the people you’re talking to.
In Signal, push notifications simply act as a ping that tells the app to wake up. They don’t reveal who sent the message or who is calling (not to Apple, Google, or anyone). Notifications are processed entirely on your device. This is different from many other apps.
What’s the background here? Currently, in order to enable push notifications on the dominant mobile operating systems (iOS and Android) those building and maintaining apps like Signal need to use services offered by Apple and Google.
Apple simply doesn’t let you do it another way. And Google, well you could (and we’ve tried), but the cost to battery life is devastating for performance, rendering this a false option if you want to build a usable, practical, dependable app for people all over the world.*
So, while we do not love Big Tech choke points and the control that a handful of companies wield over the tech ecosystem, we do everything we can to ensure that in spite of this dynamic, if you use Signal your privacy is preserved.
*(Note, if you are among the small number of people that run alt Android-based operating systems that don’t include Google libraries, we implement the battery-destroying push option, and hope you have ways to navigate.)
this too doesn’t sound that silly
We also had a year when Google decided that short-range radar was the future of interacting with your phone, so it crammed a Soli sensor into the top bezel of the Pixel 4 series. It was the culmination of five years of work and was designed to let you skip songs, silence phone calls, and snooze your alarms with nothing more than a lazy wave.
i tried this app for a while ☞ https://f-droid.org/packages/com.jarsilio.android.waveup but it didn’t work as well :/
isn’t Diaspora the most popular facebook alternative?
it also has 3 client apps on fDroid.
i know people who openly use torrents when they’re abroad. As long as you remember to turn it off before going back home, it’s not your IP that’s logged.
if it’s to hide what you’re downloading from Saudis, because they make patties from journalists or jail activists or behead hundreds of people every year, then maybe you should wait a month to get out to download them
let’s say that VPNs are compromised and “they” know that you’re downloading “illegally”
in order to prosecute, “they” have to prove you’re a pirate and show how they know
would they compromise their backDoor to go after a tiny pirate?
android devices with google services
There are currently two aspects to this cross-device integration: hotspot and calls. The idea is that, as long as your two phones are logged into the same Google account, they are part of the same group and can share an instant hotspot or a video call when they’re near each other — no setup or passwords required. And unlike Apple’s or Samsung’s solutions, you don’t need to have devices from one specific brand; this should work across all Android phones, regardless of brand (though we know the instant hotspot won’t work with Samsung devices, sadly).
the Fairphone 5 has sold for €699 and up since it launched last summer, making it kind of pricey for a device with mid-range specs.Now the company has dropped the price to €629 and introduced a new €549 model for customers willing to sacrifice a little memory and storage.
both phones have a microSD card reader. So you’re paying €150 more for just 2 more gb of RAM?
i would consider 4 years to be
After almost 4 years, I find myself lacking the energy and enthusiasm I once had
once i had? energy and enthusiasm he had only 3 years ago?! When i started reading the article i was expecting 15 years, 20, 30+
me, personally?
why would it matter how long i would (or did) stay?
After almost 4 years
he didn’t last much
there are decent note apps, like notally, that are smaller than 2mb 🤷
