This isn't about being invisible. 99.9% of the people can't, including most of the HN crowd. It has become literally almost impossible. This is about making a statement for what you believe and fighting for digital world we want.

Well, if we can't have privacy, at least lets make it clear that we DO want it and do what we can to have it. Not being able to defend ourselves doesn't mean that we should give up. A crowd can gather in front of a building and de

I would be careful to extensively deliver my typing pattern over a non-https website because this is a known way to profile people online and later identify them.

This is why I believe we are the root cause. We, developers and tech aware. Your mentioned 1%. This isn't about agencies or governments or even corporations anymore. It's about our work ethics. Developer ethics. We babble around t

I don't know what is on a page until I visit it, so to make a stand myself in favor of a less insecure internet, I use HTTPS Everywhere in strict mode, which blocks HTTP. I have found that mostly I can live with it, and wish for the co

When I see articles about security related topics I immediately expect them to be served over HTTPS and get frustrated when they are not. It makes me think if HN should perhaps make a stand and either display some sort of lock icon next to

Follow up: I went to one of the proposed websites that demonstrate deanonymization and tried the Wasavi method on their text fields. This is the message I've got: Unable to enrol with your keystroke dynamics. So yes, I'm adding

I have suggested a similar approach in a comment above but instead using a browser plugin with an overlay text editor or one that enables you to use your default text editor in a server/client model.

Reading your comment and looking at the proposed solutions, it made me think of an interesting browser plugin, and wonder how it could affect this issue, or if it could even potentially solve it to a certain degree. Wasavi. It's a plug

I must say that my first impression is beyond positive. One to one and group chats, group video and audio calls, GIF search built-in, doodles, the best implementation of photos in the message stream that I've seen, poking and playable

There is no data. WhatsApp just passes the encrypted communication from your phone to another phone and that's it. It doesn't hold it. The first couple times that WhatsApp was blocked in Brazil, the reason was that they denied acc

Not even a single mention about security or privacy on their Kickstarter page told me what I wanted to know about a cloud-connected keyboard . Also found it quite cynical to offer a blinking disco as a device to improve your focus. No than

This community is clearly on Let's Encrypt's side so maybe HN should be our voice and drop business with COMODO as an answer? I say yes!

After reading the article I think what the author meant is: How to get even more confused with the insane plethora of Front End stuff out there and give up life. But I can't blame him. I've also tried to create lists, to reason it

I'm a relatively long time Spacemacs user, and just recently dropped it exactly because it abstracts too much, and I wanted Emacs keybindings. I've failed to comprehend how it answers my question. Thank you anyway.
