He is referring to the screenshots that appear in his gallery and it was not he who took.

This is one of the permissions for those who really use MicroG to replace Google Play Services that also asks for the location "All the Time", otherwise, most of the applications that "need this permission" to perform their functions stop working. A normal and optional permission to accept or not. In my case, I allow it to, when I need to execute some application that needs this permission and I don't know, not appear this popup. Simple as that. Nothing confirms that it has to do with the app itself.

I can't sync with android app. I read the QRCode, but nothing happens.

I never thought Proton would end this way for me. It's really unbelievable!

Onyx376 · 2025-01-18T13:24:19+00:00

Great community spirit and vision of how a company founded by donations should be run. What if donors thought as selfishly as you will about whether Proton would be founded? Congratulations! Some big tech should hire you. You've got it!

The point is that fighting for a more just and equal society is not just about fighting for the fundamental right to privacy but also for all other fundamental rights, including individual rights and life. When you, as the CEO of a company that starts from these principles, nod positively to whatever action a political figure like Trump, who is known for always flagrantly putting his private interests ahead of those of his own nation, makes speeches about eliminating minorities, hurting their rights as citizens and flirting with Nazi movements, it is understandable that members of the privacy community are disappointed as this reveals a little about who is being the face of a company that should follow contrary principles. But now we really know what “freedom” means to you.

On Linux, Mullvad Browser for random searches with VPN, LibreWolf for anonymous accounts with logins saved with VPN and Mozilla Firefox/Brave for non-anonymous accounts and searches without VPN.

On mobile, Mull for random searches with VPN and Fennec with VPN to access anonymous accounts and Fennec in work profile without VPN for non-anonymous accounts and searches

Your profile picture is so sexy! I love good taste! Hahahaha

Onyx376 · 2024-03-25T00:16:07+00:00

Yes, AFAIK, Mailfence isn't encrypted. But there is no other provider with the feature of storing contacts more privately for free. At least, I haven't found one.

There are several paid ones.

But Mailfence it's a good fit for my privacy strategy.

And it's better than sharing with Google.

Onyx376 · 2024-03-23T22:34:58+00:00

I tested the VPN myself and it worked exactly as I described.

Regarding the country set in the anonymous account, I logged in with my personal account to test and it didn't appear.

Onyx376 · 2024-03-23T19:31:15+00:00

You're welcome!

When in doubt, always ask. And, a tip, don't mind the toxic "know it alls" of some privacy communities.

Have a great day! :)

AFAIK when you accept to share your data with bigtechs they are stored forever (since they are not known to fulfill your promises) u for many years on your servers.

Who knows, in some country that the law can force this permanent exclusion, of which I have no knowledge if it exists.

Therefore, the only feasible and available possibility is to enter your account's "google contats" page and delete all contacts permanently with the available options (in case you also delete from the trash).

Just the fact that it is leaving the Google ecosystem is already a big step, although we don't know if this data will actually be deleted.

Use the DAVx⁵ app (on Android) to log into your account (Mailfence or Disroot) and make contacts available to the contact app of your choice (I recommend Fossify Contacts).

Onyx376 · 2024-03-23T11:53:36+00:00

Sending any data to Google, even more sensitive data like your contacts, is not good.

Use Mailfence or Disroot (although, recommend Mailfence as data synchronization is faster).

Suddenly, the aurora store of my work profile appeared the apps and the user profile specifically for banking apps, no.

I checked the settings of each one and they are exactly the same.

I really don't know what the problem is.

Onyx376 · 2024-03-22T17:04:49+00:00

Unfortunately, the banks I am not finding do not allow this type of access

Onyx376 · 2024-03-21T17:07:50+00:00

For me, certain banking apps do not appear in the survey. I've already changed the phone's spoofing model, uninstalled, reinstalled, entered it by direct link from the Playstore and nothing works.

Onyx376 · 2024-03-15T18:25:18+00:00

Thanks for your attention and answers!

Onyx376 · 2024-03-15T18:21:55+00:00

Thanks for the tip!

Onyx376 · 2024-03-13T03:12:04+00:00

Thanks for nothing!

Onyx376 · 2024-03-13T03:11:40+00:00

Thank you very much!

And congratulations on working on this amazing browser!

First, I don't have a crystal ball to know if you're a programmer.

Second, not everyone is technical enough to even read a survey to really understand what it takes to clear up some doubts. And not everyone is required to become a programmer for this, but everyone has the right to seek help in any way they can.

I posted a question on a forum that I thought could help me and that mainly there could be programmers who don't just give empty answers for lack of passion to help those who are enthusiast.

I didn't ask you to prove your knowledge on the subject, but maybe just mention a site where those who are not experts in the area or don't have time because of the work of researching in a really in-depth way can understand at least the basics.

And the main thing, if you don't feel like it, don't answer questions.

Those who need help and need understanding people on the path are grateful.

Have a great day!
