Mullvad has ways of mimicking HTTP traffic, but no way to totally and completely blend in like obscura says they can

I continued looking at their website after I made my comment, it uses mullvad’s proxies as exit points

I see on Obscura’s website that their whole thing is making the VPN traffic look like all other traffic

Is mullvad going to get to use any of that stuff now that they’re partnered?

On top of all that, it’s based on Chromium, which means that Google is in control of their upstream source code.

you can turn off the google stuff

Sending DNS requests to the local ISP when in TOR mode effectively removing protection against spying

there’s other ways of using TOR, and I don’t even think they do that anymore, they fixed the problem after the criticism came out

Installing an extra VPN service on Windows machines without user consent

Been using Brave for over 6 years now, that never happened on any of my machines

Replacing ads on websites with their own, and collecting that revenue

they don’t do that anymore, and honestly, I’d rather have it that way than allow google or facebook or any other website to have more money, but adblocking needs to be multi-layered anyway.

My cat doesn’t care

They’re just mad that they’re not going to get any of our support anymore, so they make fun of us.

Why is that bad? It’s a good browser

Brave blocks the nag-screens about opening and installing apps on your phone

“American” football? So Not soccer?

that’s the one, thanks

thankyou for sharing that with me

Next DNS works too, just be sure you store your logs in a secure place like switzerland or just don’t make any logs at all. You can also use protonVPN, Mullvad or iVPN to access any site like that through a proxy outside of the US

Do some research on which countries allow pirating movies and TV shows and try to stick to those

If your internet provider gives you the third degree about using a VPN just say that you don’t want advertising companies to be able to see what you’re doing as easily, or you can claim that when you play games online, you don’t want any of those people to see where you really are. “I need to protect myself from anyone who gets salty with me after they lose”

You can also claim that you were using the VPN to see what’s available in other countries on youtube, netflix and so on.

Not that I would ever pirate anything, that would be bad…or something.

It’s a deflated cat loaf

You can encrypt a radio.

Yes, but that requires you and the one(s) you’re communicating with to mod some radios and then to keep those radios secret, which won’t be easy once you start using them, especially in a situation like that where the government would probably be scanning those frequencies for exactly that

Well your post awhile ago made me aware of simpleX and I’m autistic you mentioned that you had a group there, but if no one cares about it, I guess it’s a moot point

scratch telegram off that list, put Session messenger there instead.

Telegram isn’t private, one guy has the master key to the whole thing

what the hell are you talking about?

wouldn’t a cheap walkie-talkie be more practical in that situation?

That’s not secure or encrypted

I don’t consider myself to be religious. But I hang out with Jesus pretty frequently. He hides from the Christians with me.

He figures a non-religious guy who looks like me is the best guy to hang out with to not be noticed by the crazy Christians

yes, a lot of people were using those kinds of apps during the free hong kong protests, they go from device-to-device with no internet in between.

No idea what the app is called, but apps like those exist
