One of the reasons I don't like either iOS or the Play Store is that I don't want to make an account with them (which can link all the flood of data sent by your phone to your real name, and force you to agree to their terms)

> Lets not forget that certificates are created and checked for github.com, so unlikely for a middleman to get in. What? Don't assume that the APKs are generated by GitHub's CI, anyhow, anything can be uploaded as a release

Well, I don't know, I think there might be her intentions on that last sentence (on how to deal with Chat Control etc)

Aside from everything else, I don't understand what Whittaker's point was; she seemed to ultimately be advocating for something, but I can't understand what, exactly. It's probably in the talk's last sentences: >

In extreme situations it might be acceptable to involve innocents, but that's a very far cry from what has been happening

If it's so, it's not a lot for privacy and security --- ReThink DNS uses the VPN service as well, by the way. And it is possible to use two VPN apps, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41933464 (yes, the b

You can also have NetGuard actually go through the VPN ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41933464 )

If you downloaded the Play Store version, it can't intercept all the apps

With a firewall you can keep using them, instead (and maybe only let through some of the traffic)

There's a somewhat complex way to use it together with another VPN app, with work profiles, see see https://itsignacioportal.github.io/netguard-pdnsf-any-vpn-co... But in case the VPN app supports running as a simple p

“All JWTs are sent with low expirations (5 seconds) to limit replability” Do you know how many times a few packets can be replayed in 5 seconds?

That's one good news! Yes, and I wouldn't be surprised if there were some kicbacks involved, at some universities

Well, I on the other hand, would also be unhappy if my organs were taken while I'm alive. Interestingly though, those accidents are probably much less likely to happen to wealthy people
