darn. hidden in such a place!

and I couldn't believe what I found in there. Apparently MongoDB, which I use only for my work, linked me with my facebook account. This is crazy.

yeah, same thing here. like, how can I explain my wife that is less technical than me, that "hey, this Proton service is great for privacy and all, but you won't have Calendar widgets and notifications when I add stuff to our shared calendars", and she will be like "why?" and I will be doomed. I can accept those things, cause I care more about privacy, but she doesn't and she prefers functionality over that

hmm, a shame that this website is not listing anything on the icloud mail in regards to privacy. would be nice if it would show what problems are with it in terms of privacy

that's kind of double edged sword. If Apple would be to mask your purchases, they would most likely have to know about what the purchases are to hide them from the Bank. But in current state I assume (based on the infographic I posted in separate comment), that Apple doesn't know about the purchases much, thus they are not masked on the bank's side.

But I am no expert in this matter, so I may be wrong.

I'm not entirely sure if this fully answers your question or if it's still accurate, but I came across a graphic comparison a while ago that illustrates how Apple Pay and Google Pay handle payment tokens. According to this infographic, it can be assumed that Apple does not pass every payment through their own servers. As a result, even if they do store some information, it's likely not much.

is Apple iCloud Mail good to use?

Any information on 2FA app? I’m using it, but I don’t know how secure and private it is. Maybe I should switch to Raivo?

Lord of The Rings. and I can’t count how many times it was. as a kid I had a weekly routine to watch at least one of the movies. oh dear how I love this trilogy
