Privacy@lemmy.ml•Can Google read my Signal messages on stock Android?
11·2 months agoIt’s possible but complicated.
Since apps have access to the TPM API they can encrypt their own data in such a way that only the app’s own authorized processes can retrieve the decryption key from the TPM chip

63·2 months agoThere’s measures they could use in theory, but if you switch keyboard app away from Google’s and set private text mode, enable screenshot protection, etc, then you should be good.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•How to Rip from a DVD on old HardwareEnglish
5·2 months agoDo you want to keep the original file size or reduce it?
It’s possible to compress with minimal quality loss by transcoding (since you can switch from the old inefficient DVD codec to a modern one). But just ripping the ISO image of the disc is the easiest thing you can do and it preserves the original perfectly, so if you have enough disc space you could start with that and maybe compress later if you start to run out of space

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is it better to enable javascript in LibreWolf or switch to a different browser when a site needs it? Does switching browsers help in general?
10·2 months agoFor sites you visit occasionally, it’s better to enable tab isolation (use the containers feature) and then enable JS only for that domain (note the difference between allowing JS from that domain in any tab, vs only allowing that tab with that domain to use JS, you should do the latter)
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/
If you’re switching to a different browser you may as well use the same browser but a second clean profile and use private tabs so it doesn’t retain history. Using private tabs in your main browser profile does also help but isn’t perfect because there’s still some metadata leaks occasionally.
Using a different browser could ironically make you easier to track - how unique you are is the main signal used to track you (user agent, OS, language, etc), and going for an even more rare config will help their tracking even if you delete session cookies. Especially if they have a tracker across multiple domains you visit from different browsers from the same IP, with similar device fingerprinting results across browsers. That’s a strong signal those sessions are linked. You want to NOT stand out to maintain your privacy.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a term for *exploiting the letter of the law for malicious gain*, particularly knowing that the opponent will be bound by the letter of the law despite the negative outcome?
4·9 months agoMalicious compliance is when you follow a order or law knowing that it will backfire on those who issued it.
“Lawfare” is a comparable term but not quite it (basically legal harassment campaigns).
