Add Google to that.

Don't the body scanners allow them to see you in the nude? I thought I read an article about this years ago.

Zen looks good, but being more unique couldn't it get fingerprinted more easily?

Also their community is on Discord, which to me is a red flag quite frankly. I realize it's separate from the browser, but still. Discord no good.

So much talent locked up in big tech. I wish they would all unionize and also leave and launch open source startups.

This looks really interesting, but I have so many questions. A few important ones that come to mind immediately:

  1. What is the user agent that's reported? I'm guessing Firefox, but if there are any indicators that would give it away it's not Vanilla Firefox or a popular fork, this could make you more unique.
  2. Are the mods publicly identifiable? Another thing that might make you very unique and prone to fingerprinting.

A core part of being private online is blending in with traffic, so using a niche browser like Zen (depending on the configuration) would make you stand out.

The product looks good, and the privacy policy is pretty good too. Still, it'd be good to understand all the aspects of how Zen prevents you from standing out in the crowd.

I don't know if you or someone else can speak to this. I would jump into their community, but it's on Discord, so that's absolutely not happening.

Cool. Use Signal.

I get your point, but there's levels to it. It's a scale, and OpenAI is on that top part of the scale.

Just because one system does it far more aggressively doesn't mean it shouldn't be scrutinized and equated to less invasive systems.

Beat me to it.

30 years later and more relevant than ever... That's not a good thing. Continue to rage.

Fuck off, Fuckerberg.

I know this is a shitpost, but I need to say it anyways: The USA is not "America". America is everything west of Europe and east of Asia. All the Americas: north, central, and south.

I don't disagree. I was just stating a fact.

 

Friend gave me access to his Adobe account (I'm never giving Adobe money again), and it looks like they don't even support Firefox. That means I'm not using even the one remaining browser-based Adobe service that's left.

Adobe forcing you to use Chrome instead of Firefox to use their service

 

Anytime I try to upload images using Photon (desktop), I get this error. Any idea what it means and why this is happening?
