I have some software running (behind cloudflare and results tailored to Brazil on SearXNG because of the brazilian IP):
- Redlib (Reddit front-end and proxy)
- Kittygram (Instagram front-end and proxy)
- SearXNG (Metasearch engine)
Feel free to use on Libredirect or directly!

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Uncovering Webloc: An Analysis of Penlink’s Ad-Based Geolocation Surveillance Tech
3·5 days agoMaybe the data brokers might delete based on the requests, but it seems this is a lot deeper than anything the GDPR could fix as the data would be reuploaded and updated, because the data comes from the “analytics” and “diagnostics” SDKs, being uploaded to data brokers and unified under the advertisement ID from google and apple devices/browsers.
I think this could only be broken by not using the advertisement ID (that was promised to help anonimize the advertisement data) and block all the requests by DNS blocking on the whole device, like with Ublock Origin + Hosts file + pihole/nextdns/adguard, etc.
Edit: also blocking cwsystem.com, cwtapp.com, cobwebsapp.com and subdomains, because they can host malware made from the company that owns this system.

Technology@lemmy.world•A single threat actor used Claude and ChatGPT to compromise nine Mexican government agencies and steal hundreds of millions of citizen records in a highly sophisticated cyberattack.
5·12 days agoProbably.
I think almost all calls these days are scams, like phishing, advertisements, voice cloning, the usual nigerian prince (he’s still alive).

41·12 days agoUltimately I noticed a lot of new scams running around and some gov.br websites serving a lot of scams (they existed before only as redirects to scams, now they seem to be hosted in there too). A friend of mine tried to delete a 2FA token from her phone and got calls about that from a completely different “agency”.
Seems like the script kiddie bar got higher…
Edit: But on this case, the article doesn’t give any source

World News@lemmy.ml•West refuses to condemn slavery at UN
1·29 days agoIdk, i think it should have reparations, like, if for hundreds of years, robbing, killing, enforcing servitude of tens of millions of people for the enrichment of a few countries should make these countries pay. It gave these countries the backbone to todays “welfare states”, the industrial revolution was kickstarted on the cotton and sugar fields that these enslaved people worked, etc, etc, etc.
I don’t care about the legality, the wording, the whatever, it seems pretty clear to me that this should happen, and them giving this response shows that basically they don’t care and never cared.




On decryption, there’s unl0kr, as this describes
