That would be a violation of EU law. You cannot change such agreements without notice.

I can recommend following tools:

Please make sure to verify which changes you do and what possible side effects they could have.

and is legally fighting any order they receive.
I don’t think a provider should fight any order, especially if the chance of success is low or basically zero. It’s also very expensive. A provider that doesn’t have the data in the first place, is legally speaking better.

Germany, since I'm a German citizen and know my local rights and laws better than anywhere else. Also easier to take legal action against the company if they they mess up.

It isn't really about detection, they just got a blocklist of domains. There is not much temp mail services can do. Using lesser known or self-hosted solutions usually helps.

Idk. But the Tor Project is doing quite well financially I think.

Sorry, you very likely misunderstood me. The nodes are operated by other entities mostly independently (if we exclude the software), the Tor Project and in this case the Session foundation manage the index, get to decide which nodes to in-/exclude, etc.

Infrastructure can't be run on thin air, Signal isn't peer to peer, so infrastructure is essential.

It's not a stretch. Session is as decentralized as the Tor network. But just as with Tor, it has centralized people who manage the decentralized nodes and develope the software for them and the network.

Sorry, but you’re inherently wrong.
Well, when talking about server costs, (…)
We’re not.
Threema somehow has been running on a 5€ lifetime license and business customer subscribtions for over a decade.
Most users doesn’t even donate 1€ when using free messengers.
If your nonprofit only has 65k, don’t hire multiple devs and provide nice-to-have features that lead to high ops expenses in servers and storage. It’s called minimal viable prpduct for a reason.
They don’t offer ANY “nice-to-have” features 😭 You can’t even edit send messages, which I consider to be a basic reasonable feature (which is technically difficult to implement when having E2EE, etc. in mind)

I've read almost every drama-related post from the official GrapheneOS account since I researched this whole thing.
And they almost NEVER provide sources. The only exceptions I can think of right now were the cases with Rob Braxman and the French newsletter. That's the only time they actually provided a source.

It is not a domain registrar, they literally say it in their FAQ.
You do not own the domain then either.

Not all browser extensions are fingerprintable, only those that do by the website measureable differences to your browsing, which Snowflake, as far as I’m aware does not.

Fingerprinting is a very difficult topic. A lot on how their algorithms and tech actually works is obfuscated and hidden from the people’s eye. I will be totally honest with you, I don’t think changing ur timezone will gian you much benefit, it might even make you stick out more since it doesn’t correlate with other information like your IP address, preferred language, etc.
There has been a browser extension that set ur browser values to match the IP address region, but it’s now history sadly.
Overall, I think if cchanging your timezone will benefit or harm you, comes down to very specific adversaries.

This pretty much not adressing what I said at all. I use LineageOS myself and it’s miles better than the Stock Operating Systems of most if not all devices they support. But we shouldn’t mislead people, LineageOS is not fully “degoogled” and uses some Google services, even without the Google Play Services installed.

LineageOS is not “Google-free”. The OS still connects to various Google services by default, even without Google Play Services installed.

True, I just thought it might be more useful to OP than just the PDF + all other audits are listed too.
My point is that sharing an article by an irrelevant third party spreading misinformation due commercial interest is not a good pratice.

I think Tor with Tor Bridges (to obscure that you use Tor) is your best bet. Or using Tor over a VPN (using a VPN systemwide and then connect to Tor)
Everything else is just standard opsec, not leaking personal information and so on
Also, don’t use a E-Mail address or phone number tied to your real information, like your name or IP address. Because that is how many people got caught in the past.

You can’t use social media anonymously, it will all be pseudonymous aslong as you engage, if you consume social media passively, you can. But their have been reports that passive social media consumption is tied to negative mental health.

Security and data protection wise is GrapheneOS very superior to e/OS/, but it has the tradeoff that it doesn’t support MicroG which is less worse reimplementation of Google Play Services, while GrapheneOS only sandbox them and removes the priveleged access.

Your technical and legal understanding seems to be limited. I personally work in the IT space and hobbyist in legal stuff, in particular Data Protection.
I’m pretty sure that there is nothing that they could’ve legally done to protect the payment information.
It’s not a “bad look” for Proton, instead is just people being confronted with the reality.
If you do crime, Law Enforcement will be after you and if your operational security sucks, there will be no service that counter that.

The Brave browser has much better blocking capabilities with the goal of offering all of the uBlock Origins features, while Cromite has an ABP integration which has weaker and less support for advanced filterlists. The default filterlists selection is also quite questionable. A blocked script can no longer track you.
Brave’s fingerprinting protection measures are technically speaking superior than Cromite, the only reason that CreepJS can’t be fooled by it all the time (I’ve done my own tests and it fails sometimes) is that it has specifically been designed to adapt to its protection mechanisms, which hasn’t been done for Cromite.

Is very inaccurate and misleading. It is a shame that EFF is still promoting it; I would recommend looking up the videos from Techlore and PrivacyGuides about fingerprinting; they explain it very well without any misleading or highly inaccurate information. You can find them on YouTube and PeerTube.
Regarding cleaning up your stuff, in what jurisdiction do you live in? Under the EU you can make use of your rights as seen in the GDPR. Noyb.eu is a good resource for learning how to excersise your rights as an EU citizen.
Tails is by design not made to be used with a VPN service of any kind, if you want to hide your Tor usage, use the built-in Bridges instead.

I assume your disability is related to grammar, since there are a lot of errors in your Readme, or you might just not be that good with English yet. Whatever the case might be, it would look more trustworthy and professional if you would fix those.

If you don’t give information to Proton AG which they can be legally forced to hand over, you’re alright.
