Just be mindful decentralization doesn't inherently mean there is privacy.
Seems like a step up from "Covenant Eyes" with weirdo politicians sharing their porn habits with their children.
At this point I have to wonder whether the "Signal is CIA funded" narrative is not just butthurt Russian trolls mad at the fact it's also used by spies and informants for secure communication.
It's probably also media's fault for this. They only publish when a bad person does a bad thing on the internet with it, not all the millions of users who don't do bad things. That would be boring.
Download Navi from F-Droid. It does not have as much web functionality as Vanadium
From the looks of it Navi is just a download manager, not an actual web browser.
For that reason, I use IceCat on computer.
But do you actually compile those binaries yourself. A lot of browsers are open source.
I always understood it as they don't parse the actual details of emails (the body) to generate an add profile. It doesn't mean they don't track what websites you're visiting whilst logged in though.
My guess to this is that it's not accurate, for example email chains, or someone mentioning something that you have no intention of buying. As the email body is very unstructured it would be quite difficult to interpret whether those keywords should be added as an interest, having said that, with advanced AI that can parse context of a sentence they may just start doing that again if they can with accuracy.
I don't. I just run prefsCleaner each release and then updater.
We have a website too https://www.privacyguides.org/en/real-time-communication which has decisions based on a privacy and security related context.
One of the main requirements there is that recommended instant messengers undergo auditing.
No, they do not read your email, they're very clear about this, that is mostly FUD pushed by privacy providers who lack ethical marketing standards.
We do not scan or read your Gmail messages to show you ads
If you have a work or school account, you will never be shown ads in Gmail.
When you use your personal Google account and open the promotions or social tabs in Gmail, you'll see ads that were selected to be the most useful and relevant for you. The process of selecting and showing personalized ads in Gmail is fully automated. These ads are shown to you based on your online activity while you're signed into Google, however we do not process email content to serve ads.
To remember which ads you've dismissed, avoid showing you the same ads, and show you ads you may like better, we save your past ad interactions, like which ads you've clicked or dismissed.
The place where Google makes the money is on the sites you visit with Google Adsense and your search terms being associated with a logged in Google account. Most people want to stay logged into their email (and thus their Google account), so that's where the behavioral/adsense analytics comes in. Much fewer people use email clients these days.
If you've got your own server imapfilter is perfect for this.
It can periodically log into multiple accounts and move/delete do anything with emails.
You'll still need email hosted by someone else, even if you are self hosting, in order to sign up to domain registrar etc.
It's very poor idea to use the same domain for contact from a registrar.

It is, which is why I'm removing it. You can expect this from CNET, Techradar and bullshit outlets like that.
