I'd love to know if you can still use a third-party browser (e.g., Firefox) and if it would inherit lockdown settings per web page (given that all iOS browsers have to use webkit webview).

Pervasive traffic monitoring is an attack and it is an attack being carried out in massive scale. I believe HTTPS is the most meaningful and available method out there to stop this attack. If your website does not support using HTTPS you ar

Practice. Find a course, a group, something where interacting with people is normal and you have a shared conversation topic (homework, practice, worst case the news, the weather, the weekend). Maybe a language class? It's OK to prepar

This mode exists to enable the Tor browser's idea of fingerprinting resistance. The reasoning for why it works the way it does is documented in their design document at https://2019.www.torproject.org/projects/torb

Seems to me like a CSP bypass bug that all implementors of svg fonts (cough, cough, webkit) should fix :)

Cool. What’s the interop story between Go‘s existing implementation for parsing objects with duplicate keys? Keep first, overwrite or abort?

Some of the statements in this article are just not true. The post seems to get frequent edits and always looks new/recent when I visit it, though I’ve seen and rebutted it several times over the last years. Yet, apparently nobody made
