I think big tech helps Palantir and similars. So if a website has javascript from Google, which most websites have, then you are at risk when visiting that website. One could be hacked this way easily if the operating system is not secure
Unfortunately I’m not tech savy but you can watch these: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ooNmubCA680&pp=ygUMU2FtIGJlbnQgdG9y0gcJCUkMAYcqIYzv

Tor is shady as Sam Bent stated. They don’t take the necessary precautions to anonymize you the best way they can.
You can believe in whatever you want
My Pixel 6 with Graphene OS was acting very weird like overheating out of nowhere, disconnecting vpn over and over. I stopped using it
It may well be the most secure, but it’s not enough. Palantir is watching people from all over the world
But Linux is far from secure. Although Graphene OS is also not very secure. We need an operating system written in Rust and with micro kernel I guess
It is suggested by youtuber the hated one. The owner is anarchist and he has developed mixnet to prevent surveillance. Mixnet is very hard to track (with 5nodes) and adds random traffic to prevent ai analysis
Here is the past discussion: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/31505779
He sees through flesh and rock. He is straining on human kind.
Nym pays users to be a relay as far as I know. There are 5 relays or 2 relays with your preference (depends on the speed and security you want). Maybe they own some servers that I don’t know but their encryption techniques are quite advanced. There are articles on their websites that they cannot log anything.
Sorry, you are right. But what I meant was it is very hard to deanonymize and monitor users of NymVPN. Tor network can be however monitored by NSA although chances are small that you will be deanonymized. And unlike Tor, NymVPN can offer 5 relays, which makes the chances that nodes can collaborate to deanonymize you to almost zero. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Why don’t you use a decentralized VPN like NymVPN? It’s impossible for the company or anyone to take logs because your traffic is routed over several nodes. It’s like Tor but also adds noise to data and harder to deanonymize
Can you please elaborate on dependencies part? How to analyze them and how to know which package does exactly what in a quick way? Does one need any coding knowledge? Thank you
I have LineageOS installed on my phone. Without the app InviZible Pro from F-Droid, my phone connects to Google servers for connectivity checks, system webview and time adjustments. The disadvantage in terms of privacy of /e/OS would be the default presence of micro g, which is proprietary. In LineageOS it’s not present by default.
Sonalder explained it very well. I just want to emphasize that it’s much more private than any other vpn because its impossible for Nym to keep logs.
I also want to add to his comment that it’s like Tor network but adds noise to data and harder to deanonymize. As there aren’t as many and as fast nodes as in Tor, it’s slower. Here is the owners conversation with the Youtuber The Hated One: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVtw-4Eox2E
LineageOS sends connectivity checks, time adjustment requests and system webview (chromium by default and not easy to change) data to google servers as far as I know. Are you sure it doesn’t send anything to google? On the other hand, there is an app Invizible Pro on FDroid, which is perfect to prevent such connections. Maybe you assume the user will install it?

I wish I could bring it to an expert. Do you know how to find one? Here is the file: https://paste.centos.org/view/5df16fbe Sorry for the delay
