She’s not particularly wrong,

yes, and that’s the saddest part

Advertising will not improve unless we address the underlying data sharing issues, and solve for the economic incentives that rely on that data.

thanks to Mozilla for assuming the responsibility of improving advertising

We can’t just ignore online advertising — it’s a major driver of how the internet works and is funded. We need to stare it straight in the eyes and try to fix it. For those reasons, Mozilla has become more active in online advertising over the past few years. - MARK SURMAN, PRESIDENT, MOZILLA source

if we stay with that metaphor of “We need to stare it straight in the eyes and try to fix it”, it’s not difficult to imagine Mark and Mozilla being swallowed by the monster he’s “staring straight in the eyes” :/

i hope they can filter the shit Mozilla will include in Firefox from mull and mullvad

She went on to work at eBay for 13 years, followed by PayPal, Skype, and Airbnb. source

Megaphone (formerly Panoply Media) is a Software as a service (SaaS) business owned by Spotify. The company provides software for podcast hosting and monetization as well as an ad network to generate additional revenue for podcast publishers.

apparently they host their own content under a different name

Wikipedia confirms

i may hate ads but can 20k Hz exist without this ad money?

any podcast that’s hosted on megaphone has them

this, from vox, is one of the worst ☞ https://feeds.megaphone.fm/VMP9331026707

from https://protonvpn.com/features/swiss-based

We are headquartered in Switzerland, which has some of the world’s strongest privacy laws. Switzerland is also outside of EU and US jurisdiction and is not a member of the 14 eyes surveillance network.

When you connect to Proton VPN, you enjoy the same legal protections that ensure the privacy of all Swiss citizens. Proton VPN is built by the same group of scientists who met at CERN and founded Proton Mail, the largest encrypted email provider. We are based in Switzerland, allowing us to pass the benefits of Swiss data protection on to you.

Under Swiss data protection regulations, we are not required to comply with requests that are not supported by a Swiss court order.

they don’t have to respect laws made by Mussolinette & co.

can you take one bulb out and take a photo?

rather https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail or https://f-droid.org/packages/eu.faircode.email/

it’s fully customizable. After some tweaking you can get it to be more minimal and clean than K9 or any other client

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

thanks for that comment
