    I only torrent video, audio and epub files. For those as long as your player is up to date you should be fine, nobody is going to burn a 0day on you.

    Now if you torrent executable files it is a different matter. Mac and Linux malwares exist, they are just a lot less common. You should try to find a trusted source, public trackers are not one. And you could restrict and monitor the program to see if it tries to do suspicious things. By running it in a sandbox like firejail or preventing it to access the internet with your firewall, you could use a tool like opensnitch to see where it tries to connect.

    There are plenty of sites that use more than one parameters. It’s true that a lot of sites now use the history API instead of url parameters but you can still find plenty, and you have no garante about the parameters order. Any site with a search page that have a few options will probably use url parameters instead of the history API. It’s easier to parse and will end up being shorter most of the time.

    Well for youtube it’s quite easy, there are only 4 useful parameters that I can think of, the video id v, the playlist id list and index if it’s a playlist and the time t if you’re sending a specific time in the video. Everything else can be removed. Here’s what uBlock Origin with the AdGuard URL Tracking filter list:

    ! Youtube
    $removeparam=embeds_referring_euri,domain=youtubekids.com|youtube-nocookie.com|youtube.com
    $removeparam=embeds_referring_origin,domain=youtubekids.com|youtube-nocookie.com|youtube.com
    $removeparam=source_ve_path,domain=youtubekids.com|youtube-nocookie.com|youtube.com
    ||youtube.com^$removeparam=pp

    Ce ne sont pas des conseils propre à la degooglisation (ou un mot comme ça) mais juste des trucs généraux auxquels je pense et qu’il est plus facile d’intégrer au moment d’une transition :

    Pour les emails je conseil de prendre un nom de domaine perso. La plupart des services mails permettent d’utiliser un domaine perso (mais souvent derrière une option payante). Ainsi ton email serait guillaume@super-domaine.fr et pas guillaume@posteo.de. Comme ça l’adresse email est indépendante du service utilisé. Si tu dois changer plus tard tu aura juste à configurer ton domaine pour pointer vers le nouveau service. Pas besoin de changer ton email sur tout plein de site et de donner une nouvelle adresse à tous tes contacts.

    Au passage les relay mail c’est très bien pour ne pas donner sa vrai adresse à tous les sites sur lesquels on s’inscrit. Ça limite le tracking, le spam et les problèmes en cas de fuite d’un de ses sites. J’utilise Firefox Relay mais il y en a d’autres (simplelogin…).


  • This means putting your trust in Obscura, since they’re the 1st hop, receiving your data without additional encryption, a new player, who yet has to prove that they’re trustworthy.

    I’ve not checked but the whole claim is to use additional encryption, between you and the 2nd hop.

    With our 2-party setup, Obscura operates the 1st hop, and we’re proud to partner with Mullvad who operates the 2nd (exit) hop. As the WireGuard packets are end-to-end encrypted to Mullvad’s servers, we never see any parts of your packet in plaintext (not even SNI). In fact, you can check your connected server’s public key in the Obscura App against those listed on Mullvad’s server page!
