How G.M. Tricked Millions of Drivers Into Being On (Including Me)

This reporter and her husband bought a Bolt in December. Two risk-profiling companies had been getting detailed data about their driving ever since.

cant quit third-party delays shut down for a third time

Ich frage mich, wieso Webseiten von Zeitungen immernoch nicht:

- ihre Daten selber hosten
- Tracker und Werbung einbinden
- unbenutzbare Webseiten bauen

Was ist da los
- zeit.de
- sz.de
- faz.net
- ...

Gegen berwachung wettern und die Besucher der Webseiten tracken lassen.

Abgesehen davon werden immernoch nicht Quellen von Recherchen genannt. Wie soll man diese Medien denn ernstnehmen

We fool ourselves if we think governments aren't spying on their citizens. It's one of those things that snuck in and stayed, and is not going away but expanding.

"Poland's prosecutor general says previous government used spyware against hundreds of people"

"Polands prosecutor general has told the parliament that powerful Pegasus spyware was used against hundreds of people during the former government in Poland"

In dem Link ist laut Developer-Console immerhin nur noch ein einziges Cookie von archive.is selber dabei.

Aber was mir jetzt aber trotzdem ein bisschen unangenehm auffllt (und von geblockt wurde): Warum dieses Zhlpixel nach Russland

Und warum wird fr meine externe IP Adresse (127.0.0.1 als Beispiel!) eine eindeutige Subdomain ala
"1.0.0.127.de.inc6.377500215.pixel.archive.is" von archive.is mit einem weiteren Zhlpixel angesurft

According to a study by (author of the app "Tracker Control")

" 85% of apps
from 2017 could send data to Alphabet/Google, compared to 89% in 2020. Apps
still widely send personal data to tracking companies based in a third-party country
without an adequate level of data protection, particularly to those in the US "

This study received the Stefano Rodot Award btw (see ) congrats to Konrad!

This guy made a tool that beeps every time a website sends data about you to Google. The beeps blur into a continuous buzz:

I use Privacy Badger (, blocks trackers), uBlock Origin (, adblocker), Firefox, and the SearXNG search engine ( or find instances at ), but it's annoying I have to.

It's not the browser sending data to trackers. It's the webpages that load these tracking URLs and force browsers to do this!

Cache is king

Earlier in the day than my previous articles! Latest entry in the A-to-Z of Blogging Challenge is titled "T is for 'Tracking'" in which I write about my disdain for tracking components in URLs.

I was sufficiently annoyed to write a tool to strip out tracking elements:

Feedback welcome (here, on the blog article, or via github)

New game. The rules are simple:

You send me an email that contains tracking links I unsubscribe. Can't be simpler really.

Tracking

A new assistant is being integrated into the search experience on Facebook and Instagram. Problem is, someone forgot to tell it what it can and cant do.

NextDNS or Pi-hole (self-hosted) are DNS level blockers that more people really should use.

GPS tracking reveals koalas Phascolarctos cinereus use mosaics of different forest ages after environmentally regulated timber harvesting

"We located koalas for capture using day searches, nocturnal spot-lighting, koala detection dogs and dawn drone flights. Once located, koalas were either captured by trapping or flagging by a tree climber using an extended pole. Animals were anesthetized to allow appropriate fitting of collars."

"The Next US President Will Have Troubling New Surveillance Powers"

"Over the weekend, President Joe Biden signed legislation not only reauthorizing a major FISA spy program but expanding it in ways that could have major implications for privacy rights in the US."

And then there's this GDPR warning in Webflow when you try and use a Google font. Google will track your end users' IP addresses.

Das und Bezahl-Sperre fr seine redaktionellen Artikeln anbietet ist nichts dagegen zu sagen, aber die Armada von tracking Anbietern auf Heise, die den Rest begleiten, empfinde ich als heftig. Muss das sein

Ich musste soeben den auf meinem Smartphone installieren, um eine digitale Fahrkarte nutzen zu knnen.

Hasse alles daran.

Hoffe, Blokada und /e/s advanced privacy verhindern den schlimmsten Datenabfluss. (Nehme gerne Alternative fr Digitale Tickets, falls es sowas gibt.)

praktisch gar nicht ... ich habe einen Router/Client mit Dachantenne plus einen Client fr unterwegs - war mal technisch interessant, ist ein faszinierendes Konzept, einen praktischen Nutzen sehr ich aber derzeit nicht.

Praktisch nutze ich im Bereich und rund um Haus und Grundstck mit 2 eigenen Gateways. GPS- klappt hier in der Region auch recht gut aufgrund passabler Coverage mit Gateways ...

Die macht Druck fr mehr im Internet.


Ist ja eine nette Idee, und ich htte auch gerne mitgeraten. Aber eine deutlich zweistellige Anzahl bler Domains, von denen Tracker und Werbung nachgeladen werden sollen Nein danke, mit ist schon schlecht.

The is quite flexible. I compiled a list of examples:

I am wondering how people use it. As I am not them on my hosted instance, I do not know. If you use it, please get in touch :)

Genial, ein Sampler als Plugin verfgbar fr Linux/Mac/Windows

Part3:

Multi-factor authentication / 2FA:
- I use Authy as an authenticator app, and enable 2FA on every site that offers it. But if you only use it for your e-mail provider, that'sa major improvement.

Extra indulgence:
- I've subscribe to Incogni for one year. They will try to get your e-mail address removed with as many data brokers as possible. Unfortunately only for one e-mail address.

I think that's everything, but I'm open for other tips and tricks. Sorry for the long post.

Part 2:

Disposable e-mail addresses:
I only use my real e-mail address for truly trusted recipients. What about all others Well...
- SimpleLogin.io will allow you to create as many e-mail addresses as you like (only about 5 in a free account though). I've added my own custom domain. Added bonus is that you can see which e-mail addresses generate spam. In that case disabling the address is simple.

Secure cloud storage:
I wanted to stop using Google Drive, because, well, Google
- pCloud will let you buy (not rent) cloud space, buy once and keep using it as long as you like. pCloud is a Swiss company, so protected by strict privacy law. It also integrates nicely with Linux, WIndows or MacOS

Passwords:
- Bitwarden does this pretty well and secure. I used to use LastPass, but in the end it leaked like a sieve

Just in case you're interested, this is how I try to stay secure and private online.
(multipart)

Ads and trackers:
Malware is dangerous, trcking kills your privacy and ads are simply annoying and slow down your browsing, so:
- NextDNS will filter out most ads, malware and trackers. Aditionally, you get encrypted DNS and if necessary some extra filters like gambling or porn
- The uBlock Origin browser plugin does the same blocking, I've added it in case NextDNS misses something
- The Trace Online Tracking Protection browser plugin will prevent browser fingerprinting, this only seems to work on Linux, not on my Chromebook. Just have a peek at ...
- Don't use Chrome browser (or Edge). I'm using Firefox on Linux and Kiwi on Android. Brave browser is also quite good.

Fascinating.

A and baseband is to be considered at all times, and even if people were to tunnel everything via / that won't avoid the and "" aspect.

Ideally we'd have stuff like the & ready to , but sadly I've to still work on getting the necessary done based upon / .

Granted, the best thing one can do is to bounce public WiFis with anonymized MAC addresses...

That works okay with Tor Bridges, but won't work in like where you only have a national intranet and the only options you have to get any access is through smuggled SIMs at the Chinese and Russian Border...
