I have been using Ironfox to replace Mull for a while, but for some specific cases I also use Fennec, but I alert, as well as Fennec, Ironfox is not coming with the Fingerprint Resistance enabled by default, although it has proposed as an alternative to Mull. So stay tuned and always activate this in the developer settings.

Yes, Starpage I use sometimes has also been removed among other search engine. I did not mention this in the post. It really must be a mistake.

It seems, yes!

Thanks for the link!

Exactly!

“Defaults are extremely important, we can’t babysit every app update in the devices of a tech illiterate person we help or simply suggested Firefox to”

Note: Standards are also important to show whether developers and organizations are actually privacy in their products and services. It is not a matter of having knowledge to modify your taste. But as it seems that it was simply a problem in updating Fennec, everything is ok. They must correct soon.

Seriously, man?! So much relevant question to be addressed and you will pay attention to it? hahahaha. But let’s go! I do not speak English, so I use translator. If the translator has chosen “Always” and is not suitable, it is not my fault. I mentioned that “Always Used” to use Mullvad Leta since the beginning of its recent operating period and everyone knows. Explained? So let’s go to what matters, privacy!

Regarding the implementation of GrapheneOS’s Google Play Services sandbox, I particularly like it and if it is to be considered something to popularize the use of open source OS (GrapheneOS), limiting Google’s data collection (since the use of Google Play Services sandbox is completely opt-in), it also maintains compatibility and avoids many issues so as not to alienate the general public from enjoying the other benefits of using an open source OS, something that MicroG does not do, however, I use it and I think it is an incredible project, but take into account the perspective of popularizing open source by the general public without associating it with software issues.

That is why, when I refer to understanding the purpose of the CalyxOS project, I really understand, what I mean is that there is no prospect of changing and becoming a more hardened Custom ROM benefiting its users. A lot of things could be improved. There are resources for that.

NOTE: I know about the end of the Divested Project development, which is worthy of applause for the time of contribution to the community and of thanks without a doubt. I only used it as an example of a truly hardened Custom ROM and that should be the goal for those who say that their OS is suitable for journalists like the CalyxOS team.

AFAIK, Mailbox.org was once open source, but has not very recently become closed source. PrivacyGuides.org recommends it, as does Tresorit (encrypted cloud storage), for example, which is closed source and is one of the services I use. Providers that implement encryption, have been audited, have been on the market for years, and have a clean track record of security or privacy scandals, which there aren’t many of these types of services these days. But I personally don’t like them and try my best to avoid closed source softwares as well.

In conclusion, PrivacyGuides mostly recommends open source software but also recommends some that are not based on their features, reputation, security and maturity.

Tuta has already been through some cases linked to German court orders to decrypt emails received in the inbox of alleged criminals, just like any other company that is subject to the legislation of its respective country (I don’t know the difference with Proton, which until now I only found out about the delivery of IPs, not the content of the emails themselves, based on Swiss court orders), but I don’t believe it is a honeypot because Tuta has clarified the entire issue and still has credibility in the privacy community.

Mailbox.org is closed source unfortunately and I believe the Client is too

It’s worth watching, yes. To understand the purpose of CalyxOS, you must understand the purpose of the project, of course. We can’t simply say that it’s a terrible Custom ROM for privacy, as he did. It was quite wrong and in bad faith to say that a project that, yes, is much better than using a Stock ROM, however, the fact that he compared it to other Custom ROMs that also claim to focus on privacy and showed that CalyxOS doesn’t differ much from them is completely valid and truly a fact. DivestOS, with only one developer at the helm, was much more hardened than it. Which makes one wonder why CalyxOS, with an entire team behind it, doesn’t follow the same example. It really is disappointing. Want to prove it? Check out the website (https://eylenburg.github.io/android_comparison.htm) he shows in the video and see for yourself.

Sorry. I’ve already added it.

UPDATE: Andy Reply

According to Andy’s logic, if Hitler were the president of some unfortunate country, we should differentiate the boss from his good nominees. Even using a company founded by an entire community to show a good evaluation made by one of its founders to give him a loving pat on the back and show the world that he is not completely bad as they think, but not meaning that the founder agrees with all his innocent actions, of course, such as disregarding the rights of many people around the world because they are just part of the democratic game.

Really disappointing. Never imagined this from Proton. Truly dead to me now.

Abandoning the Proton subscription now. How stupid and irresponsible. In fact, are running away from all your principles.

PCAPdroid

I don’t use any of these services and the app I use to check network traffic, PCAPdroid, reports that it is “com.android.mtp”, the one in the screenshot. Seems legit to me.

“com.android.mtp”, I think so!
