You didn't get the point. It's about community relevance.

ELI5 how does Netguard work? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml
[–] Undertaker@feddit.org 12 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

VPN is both, an interface on your device and a network connection (to a provider). Netguard only uses the first. So every request is going through Netguard but is not sent to a VPN provider, it leaves your device like it would if Netguard wasn't active.

So no VPN provider can see your traffic.

While being sent through your local Netguard, the request is checked whether it should be blocked or not. This is done by its name. If the name is on a block list (real list or manually blocked) Netguard ensures that the request will end in nowhere otherwise it will go through.

I hope that was sarcasm.

What are your favorite statically typed, compiled, memory safe programming languages? in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] Undertaker@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

It is compiled into bytecode. A transpiler translates to another programming language with the same level of abstraction. A compiler translates into a level that is nearer to or machine code.

Not really. On Android you can do much to achieve much more privacy. On iOS you can nearly do nothing. The options provided by Apple to restrict data usage are not doing their jobs according to privacy analysis by Kuketz thus resulting in a Apple marketing campaign based on lies that most believe and are convinced of

How mich privacy do you want?

Much? Don't use Apple. It is worse than Android. Google Android is bad as well but you can make substantial changes. Beste would be a custom ROM but that's an extreme change and way

You don't want to change iOS? You have to get rid of many Apple apps but I guess, it's not possible.

So remaining: AppleTV, Spotify, Netflix, Amazon, defenitely Discord!, WhatsApp, YouTube, Telegram, definitely HuawaiHealth.

Some of the others I don't know but I'm sure they should be avoided as well. Use Websites with blockers in browser instead of apps.

That is the least to do or accept beging heavily tracked
