Il problema è che una soluzione “self-made” per quello che fa una vpn riguardo la tua privacy non esiste. Ovvero, esiste, ma elimina proprio la componente privacy. Potresti avere una vpn verso un tuo homeserver (o server virtuale sul cloud) e stabilire come punto di uscita verso internet, quel server. Ma a quel punto, il tuo IP diventa sempre identificabile perche è soltanto tuo.

Una vpn di aziende terze (proton, mullvad, ecc) ti offre una certa privacy perche il punto di uscita su internet è tuo e di altre persone ma per via di questo non può essere collegato a te e quindi diventa, di fatto, privato.

(C’è un discorso da fare riguardo i log della compagnia vpn, e dei metodi di pagamento, ecc, che si può anche affrontare).

C’è un video molto interessante (in inglese) riguardo questo discorso in particolare.

Son quasi 20 minuti, ma spiega molto bene il giochino di queste vpn che ti offrono miracoli quando la realtà è tutt’altra.

Proton, mullvad e iVPN sono al momento quelle delle cui ti puoi fidare. Ma ovviamente dovrai pagare. Se un prodotto è gratis, il prodotto sei tu.

Diffida pure di quelle che vengono sponsorizzate da streamer di ogni tipo e che offrono forti sconti tramite codici referral, perche anche lì, il prodotto sei tu (vendono i tuoi dati di navigazione nonostante dicano che vengono criptati).

Tailscale allows you to do the same except you can create keys with limited access to only certain ports (just in case you don’t want them peeking around your server).

If it’s for your personal use and no one else is going to connect, why don’t you just configure a wireguard tunnel to remotely connect to your server as if you were in LAN without exposing anything?

So… to fight against predators you… partner with the FBI to… stop people who make groups to… prevent predatory behaviour?

@cybersecurity@poliverso.org ma come mai sono sempre le solite tre vpn le migliori per tutto? Sia per questo, che per torrent… e sono sempre le solite tre che hanno link referral con il cui guadagnate soldini?

Qualcuno potrebbe pensare che non sei altro che spammer spacciando per “informazione” la semplice autopromozione dei vostri link…

Stupendo articolo sulle migliori vpn.

Una israeliana, Express vpn

una olandese (e quindi dentro dell’alleanza 9 eyes), surfshark

e una accettabile (nord) ma con prezzi non molto lontani da altri competitor con standard di privacy simili.

Nemmeno una menzione a mullvad o proton. Ma poi ti rendi conto che tutte e tre le “ottime” vpn ti rimandano ad un link referral e ti fa capire quanto di informazione obiettiva e quanto di pubblicità c’è nell’articolo.

And yet, you still haven’t answered my question: what gives you a 900€ phone in terms of security that a cheaper phone with grapheneOS or a cheaper iphone won’t give you? But keep going with your “i’m the expert” attitude, you are really, REALLY educating me

So many words to not answer even one of my questions, “expert”.

If they ditch windows, their products can cost less without reducing profits, selling more units because of reduced price.

There is no reason for them to go with windows instead of linux if in neither case they are profitting from the OS.

So, instead of paying to license widows in your device, pay to support a system that ditches windows so you can stop relying on it and reduce costs of your products?

Tell me you know don’t jack about linux without telling me you don’t know jack about linux in 25 words or less.

Ok, let’s say those ratings are not good. And let’s say that you can only trust iPhone as “paradigm of safety” (lol).

Tell me, does your kid need the latest phone to play their games? Are you telling me that an iPhone 14 or even 13 won’t do?

What’s a feature that only the latest iphone has and doesn’t have an older model?

Exactly, what are your kids doing that need of the highest tier phone to guarantee the highest level of security? Are they potential targets to israel spyware?

PS: stop it with the patronizing tone acting as if you knew best.

First of all: it’s not the price to make a phone safer. I’d argue that grapheneOS is safer than any android commercial rom. And it’s available for cheap phones.

Also: what game does need a flagship phone to run that should be played by a kid? COD? PUBG? I’m not sure a kid should be playing those. But hey, I guess pegi ratings are a lie…

And, again, even if they wanted to play those games, you don’t need a flagship phone for them. Cheaper phones will do.

The fact that you think I don’t consider kids actual people because I don’t think they (or most people in general) need the last flagship phone shows how disconnected from reality you are.

So answer me: what’s a feature that a kid needs and you won’t find in a cheaper phone?

I mean… bazzite? ChimeraOS? You don’t need to go to steamOS to find a free linux distro that works well with games. Hell, you could even customize one based on any of those so you don’t have to pay for a windows license for your products.

If you think that giving a kid a 900€ phone when there’s a much cheaper alternative that does the same is/should be the norm, you are part of a problem called consumerism.

What’s a valid reason to buy an expensive phone to a kid when a much cheaper alternative can do the same?

I’m not sure I follow. I have strange opinions about kids because I don’t think you should give a kid a 900€ phone/handheld when alternatives under 200€ exist?

I’m glad you can (and want to) buy a 900€ device for each of your 3 children, but I’m not sure how connected to the reality you are if you think that’s the norm.

I’m not sure most parents would be buying a handheld pc as a present for their kids. That’s a very expensive present to give a kid that could smash it on the ground or forget somewhere easily.
