Don’t assume that the European commissioners and their staffs know what they are doing or understand these matters. The depth of their collected knowledge could easily be documented in a single Powerpoint. And with not too many slides. And Ylva Johansson is well known for being both ignorant and utterly manipulated by lobbyists.

+1 on that. LibreWolf, use the compartments feature and clean cookies and history every time you close the browser. And you come a long way.

Two I use a lot daily are KeePass 2 in various versions, computer as well as tablet. I used KeePass “original” 1 for years, but moved to 2/XC/DX. Occasionally also used for storing notes and not just passwords.

My notetaker, all hands down, though. Joplin, with encryption activated, the file stored for syncing on my privacy oriented community’s encrypted NextCloud. I am an avid notetaker, both digital and analogue, and Joplin really fits my needs.

OK, third, honourable mention: Veracrypt

Exactly. Which is why I have old fashioned earbuds with cable, and the moment I start travelling, I turn off my WiFi and if checking nail or messaging, I activate my sim card in the tablet.

I never charge my phone directly in public places. Instead I charge a simple powerbank I have, that then charges the phone. No idea how easy it is for that one to “be contaminated and carry something over”, but being simple, basically no features, just charging and a Led indicator, I suspect the chances are at least a lot less.

As some others, I use Jerboa. Tried a few others, but happy with it.

Not sure, but I couldn’t find Tox (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tox_(protocol)) anywhere?

“We should debate them… And defeat them on the Marketplace of Ideas.” Yeah, right.

Thanks!

Shared experience then. Thanks!

Not yet. I was trying to go with the browser first, before “IYAP” 😉 (“Install Yet Another App”) But I am likely to end up there.

Totally, ask MAGA what Q told them. Blackhole woke communism, all the way.

And the fact that Ylva Johansson, being technologically illiterate as well as a close bed buddy with companies in the surveillance industry that stand to earn a crap load of money doesn’t help…

I’m curious if only particular apps/software is going to be monitored this way? I mean, if I encrypt outside a messaging app like Signal or outside mail, using OTP, OpenPGP, AES-256or or something similar, or using a combination of VPN, Tor and Cryptpad för creating messages, meaning that when the message is entered into the monitored app, it is already encrypted?

1. Session
2. XMPP with OMEMO
3. a Tox, if possible (no real asynch common)
4. Matrix
5. Signal

I do. I use a B64 password and a key file to my manager. In fact, I have three different files for my manager, one containing seldom used financial data, etc

Exactly. Plus, if you’re a windows user, you can keep the portable version of KeePass on the drive as well.
