For those interested I have completed my publication of a detailed #tutorial on
"#Security #Hardening: a journey with eyes open"
The tutorial is biased towards #Linux. But, it should be widely OS agnostic & relevant (aside from command line & scripting guidance). It consists of some ~10 webpages. Most pages are mine & hosted on my site. All eirenicon and external references are linked from this page:

Still no #VPN fan but @airvpn / #AirVPN at least has a purpose given they have an #OnionService at: http://airvpn3epnw2fnsbx5x2ppzjs6vxtdarldas7wjyqvhscj7x43fxylqd.onion
昨日のビッグニュース、Proton VPN の使い方をご紹介します
Vivaldi をアップグレードしたら右上に出てくる [VPN] のマーク。
ここをクリックして、Vivaldi.net のアカウントでログインしたら使えます。あっという間です。
もちろん、無料。
This is an unsolicited plug for #vivaldi . It's the dogs! With added #vpn #security in the latest update. Unfortunately I still have to keep my Gmail lines open because some folk are just unaware of the basics. From back in the day "if you think you are being watched, you are!"...still get a hand on my shoulder from the local plod every so often, just to let me know they know. The #UK is not a #free #liberal or #open #democracy .
Do you use Firefox? Do you want it to be more secure? Hopefully this will help.

Given I have just begun a detailed test of Mullvad VPN in hopes of reducing my internet exposure and improving my privacy, I need tools that fit my style & window managers.

Proton VPN is now included in Vivaldi web browser, with Vivaldi's CEO praising the companies 'shared values' in championing user privacy https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/03/vivaldi-browser-now-includes-built-in-proton-vpn
@Andromxda @pixelcode How can you claim something you can't evidence?
It makes you look like one of those folks shilling #VPN|s that ain't logless after all...
At least they should be honest about things and not claim bs, cuz demanding a #PhoneNumber is just #KYC with extra steps like demanding any #SSN or other #PII. Makes them look like chinese MMORPGs that demand ID card numbers for account signups, thus #paywalling the ability to use their service anonymously...
A smarter VPN experience: Introducing the Mozilla VPN extension for Windows.

@Vivaldi just updated their desktop #browser to include the free version of @protonprivacy #VPN built in!
I just tested it and it works perfectly.

We received this e-mail from #NordVPN today.
If we ever recommend them on our website, it's safe to assume we accepted their bribe.
Should you ever run across an article that says you don't need a VPN because most every website use HTTPS, be aware that you can not see the encryption, or the lack of it, in mobile apps. Thus, things like this happen - Apple did not bother to upgrade their own software from HTTP to HTTPS.

Private #Browserfenster verhindern keine Identifikation im Netz.
Die #IP-Adresse und das Browser-#Fingerprinting ermöglichen weiterhin das Benutzer-#Tracking.
Wer wirkliche #Anonymität sucht, sollte auf Tools wie den #TorBrowser setzen. Doch auch der schützt nicht vor allen Gefahren.
