    What makes you trust DuckDuckGo is OK for privacy?

    The Tor browser serves a different purpose. I use Whoogle to get good search results on the regular web and to not get tracked with my searches and not to not get junk back in my searches.

    What makes you trust DuckDuckGo is OK for privacy?

    I found it. https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search/issues/142#issuecomment-721417199 So yes it seems if you don't use Tor or vpn your ip address isn't hidden. So I will definitely do some Tor experimenting one of these days.

    What makes you trust DuckDuckGo is OK for privacy?

    I use it and it works just fine. I still have to experiment with the Tor setting at some point because I just realized I wasn't using that. So I think it does it some other way since using Tor is optional.

    What makes you trust DuckDuckGo is OK for privacy?

    Look under the project features. It uses Tor to cover that, if I am not mistaken.

    Not exactly security related But!

    I switched from Arch to Fedora Silverblue because I wanted to experience what Atomic distributions are all about. I have come to like them now after understanding how they work more and having used it for a few weeks now. I especially like the separation between os and user applications and the...

    Why Your VPN May Not Be As Secure As It Claims

    It's not like the person hadn't already made a fool of himself in the last years or that it would have prevented him making a fool of himself, but I'll leave it at that or else it will be heading too much towards politics. And I can see the sarcasm in the blog post, even if that wasn't written...

    Say Hello to Goodbye Mails: Temporary Disposable Email Accounts for Creating Accounts

    This sounds similar to Spam Gourmet. https://www.spamgourmet.com/index.pl

    Why Your VPN May Not Be As Secure As It Claims

    I don't see what's so objectionable about that blog post to have them banned in several countries. The only message I see is that they are promoting people to encrypt their private email and using Trump as a catch story to promote it.

    Maybe these ones? I have no experience with them though, so can't really say much else. https://tuta.com https://proton.me/mail

    Why Your VPN May Not Be As Secure As It Claims

    That depends, there are vpn providers that have proven they are secure. https://www.techradar.com/news/mullvads-no-log-policy-proven-after-police-raid Some providers allow you to pay in bitcoin or other digital currencies if you want. https://mullvad.net/en/pricing

    Not exactly security related But!

    AFAIK systemd is a suite of tools which you can choose to use or not use: service manager, dns resolver, scheduled tasks, journal, bootloader, etc. But I'm guessing you mean that you want to be able to install them separately as Unix tools and not have to have to install the entire systemd tool...

    firefox "server not found" problem

    Your default gateway was different then my guess, so run the following and share the output with a picture? ping -c3 192.168.1.13

    firefox "server not found" problem

    Is 192.168.1.1 your actual default gateway, I can't be sure since you blacked it out?

    firefox "server not found" problem

    Your wireless interface has an ip adress, what happens when you ping your default gateway? That would probably be this? ping -c3 192.168.1.1 Can you take a picture of that and share the output of that?

    firefox "server not found" problem

    Can you take a picture and post that, I want to see what it shows exactly not what it partially shows from a description in words?

    firefox "server not found" problem

    That means you don't have an active network connection on that computer. Are you posting on the forum here with your phone or another device? Can you run the following three commands in the terminal and share the output, so share the what you get when you run that here? lspci |grep -i network...

    firefox "server not found" problem

    that's fine, thanks for explaining what you did. What you need to do is open a terminal. You can find this in the menu, it's usually a black icon with a white > displayed. Then you need to type the following and press enter. ping -c3 ping google.com And then after you do that also type the...

    firefox "server not found" problem

    You are coming here for help, so I don't get why you quoted me without actually replying? And this: is not a helpful answer when you are coming here for help, when someone ask you to ping "google.com" or "8.8.8.8". The answer expected was for you to share the output because that would have...
