On VPN usage... Hypothetically, any system on the web that you interact with can "know" you. And while it is true that VPNs are no different, the reality is that using a paid ProtonVPN or similar non-US based service would require that service to cooperate internationally with a warrant. Proton does not store where you visited. Good luck getting that info operationally into the hands of ICE as part of a dragnet. #Proton #Security

GreenMaps.us now has Oauth Login. The large button on the upper right hand corder is the old log in system, the drop down is the fediverse login system, still undergoing testing. https://greenMaps.us @theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social

@theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social Unless it's someone who knows what they're doing regular people should use the tor browser instead of relying on a VPN. There's too many sketchy-at-best and honeypot-at-worst vpns out there.

@theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social what does VPN do in this case? VPN companies also can and do hand over data to 3rd parties...

@theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social A VPN potentially exposes your identifying information to the VPN provider. Use Tor.

@theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social I was always suspicious of the idea, and never went for it, despite the advice from people who don't normally get things wrong. I kept thinking "A business is supposed to make money. What's in it for them?" I'm glad I'm a cynical old codger, for once :-)

@theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social ooofff my mom (93 y/o) gave me her sign in because she wanted me to see what she’s been seeing. Algorithms are promoting obvious fake information. Troll farms that have acreage Del Monte would envy. I clicked on multiple profiles and if they weren’t trolls they were bots with sketchy links. It is another level of X with more subtle propaganda.

@theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social This is why I either don't login or I create an anonymized account using a disposable email address from Proton.

@theprivacyfoundation@mastodon.social Also Stop using X Stop offering links to your accounts on Facebook, X, and Instagram. Link people to your accounts on decentralized social media (not Threads, which is decentralized but owned by unscrupulous actors). Make sure you have RSS feeds for each of your content streams.
