Actually, I’m not really sure why I have my VPN on at all times. I guess I just want all my online traffic to be encrypted, including when I come accross some host that doesn’t support https. It’s not so much a technical reason at this point. Perhaps a philosophical one? As in, I want my daily conversations to be overheard only by those whom I interact with.

Sweet! I’ll check it out tonight! :D <3

Thanks! It’s already debloated with UAD-NG. Even some “unsafe” packages with careful experimentation.

Thank you very much for all the detailed advice! :D

I didn’t mention it in the OP, but I am not logged in to either a Google or a Samsung account. The only apps I use the Play Store for is USB Audio Player and an electronic ID app that a lot of government related everyday chores require… If and when my threat model requires me to silo it off, I’ll get Pixel and bump up my privacy. 😊

I know this isn’t a degoogle community, but just for reference, these are my apps, which I manage with Obtainium:

That is so… Interesting? 😅 What do they have to gain by blocking their own IPs/locations but not the neighboring country’s…

Are you trying to say that I’m leaving a fingerprint by using a VPN? How? My threat model doesn’t require me to hide the fact that my real identity is using one.

i2p here we come.

Online anonymity is not appreciated by authorities, it would seem…

Not all websites support https.

Thanks, I’m going to check that out! I’m doing a fresh reset on the phone with just termux installed, so it shouldn’t be a problem.

SIC. Thank you so much for this and please excuse my laziness. I should’ve pasted the link in the OP. 😅

Edit: I added the link. 😊

This is getting out of hands. Good night. My cyber waifu is waiting for me.

It took me more than 30 seconds and a buttload of performance anxiety to realize what the joke is. Noice. Updated the post accordingly.

Waaay ahead of you:

I love how memes, at this point, are a means to process our cyber anxiety.

I recently had this conversation in another community and realized that I have too much to lose. 💀 How about just keep seeding? 🤣

How can I help?

Sweet! Thank you so much!

I love that uBlock was way ahead on this?
