  • The site seems to be down

    So, for everyone that doesn’t know, in mozilla’s own words:

    About *Privacy Not Included: *Privacy Not Included is a buyers guide focused on privacy rather than price or performance. Launched in 2017, the guide has reviewed hundreds of products and apps. It arms shoppers with the information they need to protect the privacy of their friends and family, while also spurring the tech industry to do more to safeguard consumers.

    (Btw I love rss readers that cache stuff)




  • File storage (as opposed to something like email) doesn’t seem to have a massive infrastructure that I have to participate in. I don’t have to trust a third party with my data.

    I’d probably just encrypt my data before going into any of the clouds, which should keep it secure (with something like rclone).

    To send data to someone, I’d probably use onionshare or something.








  • I’d argue that having a sandbox that can run binaries with a limited and customizable feature set is actually a good thing for the web. I think there are more technically competent solutions, but the fact that WASM is available on virtually every machine and os, makes it pretty powerful.

    If implemented right WASM might speed up our web apps, keep the browser sandbox that is actually quite nice, and run on pretty much any machine. If they open sourced the code, that’d be even better.

    Between minified js and WASM, I think I’d take WASM (I can’t understand minified js anyway). Between a pure html site and WASM, I think I’d take the pure html site (but I don’t think we will be living in that world anytime soon).
