I’m a broken record: block Google (or whomever) with network-based blocking (IP and/or DNS), these guys have third-party tracking in virtually every website and app.

This is the correct answer. Facebook has third-party scripts all over the internet. I wish people would understand this — just because you’re not a Facebook user doesn’t mean Facebook (or anyone else) doesn’t track you.

I’m not sure about Facebook but tons of trackers are in apps too so the typical “use an adblocker” grumble isn’t even accurate either.

I’m a web developer but I absolutely love Safari. I seriously don’t understand the hate. From an end-user perspective it’s sooo much less clunky too.

I’d almost go through the trouble of getting the content out of Wordpress. The nice thing about static site generators is you can completely switch out the framework, runtime, base Docker image and/or OS at any time.

Your router probably does have one, but your end devices should too. If your router is some piece of trash ISP-supplied one, it might not even have a firewall for IPv6 (if it even supports IPv6 at all).

If I already didn’t wish to bring kids into this world this would’ve pushed me there. Holy 🤬.

I really wanted it to work on Fly.io but I couldn’t get it to. I’d also like to get the Tailscale software Dockerized but running multiple nodes on the same host with custom DNS was a complete shitshow.

I really love Tailscale, but the daemon and CLI seem to be absolute garbage.

I mean, it’s still good to know if you’re vulnerable right (for sake of discussion)?

Pierre, South Dakota. I’m actually from Iowa (I live in Los Angeles now) and my family went on vacation to South Dakota one time. I remember driving to the capital and realizing it was smaller than my hometown in Iowa!

I get that feeling you’re talking about with Des Moines. I used to go on tons of long road trips around the Midwest around age 18, looking for something new. Coming back to visit, Des Moines always feels comically small — I find myself wondering how businesses stay in business with such few customers.

I would add from an end-user privacy perspective, they might want HTTPS. If I hit a website not using HTTPS, I pretty much immediately back out. Bad actors like hostile governments and hackers can use seemingly meaningless data against you.

I can’t remember exactly what happened but I remember back when WebMD was fighting against rolling out TLS hackers were able to find medical weaknesses against people.

Honestly, just Unbound for DNS filtering + Tailscale + commercial VPN solves 99% of my problems with privacy online.

Yes I have a DNS service listening on both UDP and TCP to respond to DNS queries from clients using the standard DNS port; crazy me. 🤪
