Netflix: Piracy is Difficult to Compete Against and Growing Rapidly in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Netflix is getting worse month after month. Same for the streaming market as a whole. Much worse service than before, no accountability for failures on their part. I would gladly pay >15€ every month if I had at least FHD, no ads, all series / animes (excluding very nice ones ). Some months ago I did an experiment: subscribe to Netflix + Disney + hbo. I still had to torrent in order to get some content (not niche stuff) and good quality. If piracy is increasing, the culpability is also on streaming services. People are fed up of being stomped on

If it has anything to do with the ghostery addon that was bought by ad company, keep away from it

[es] Spanish government is working in a digital certificate to identify adults and avoid minors to access porn sites in c/[email protected]

So the biggest issues in Spain over the last years is kids watching porn? Really? Spain has been through a shitstorm and this is what they think of. This is just an excuse to generalise the use of digital identity certificates for all the stuff they want.

  • this isn’t even a left or right thing, since its government is an amalgamation of left parties

Hello! I have some experience on that as a user(cpap) and as someone that checked the IT system for an health provider that used resmed.

  • it’s super late here already so I’ll in greater detail what usually happens with resmed equipment as well as what the company may be receiving in their systems

Need To Change Privacy Strategy - Recommendations and BlackFriday (lemmy.world)
 

Hello everyone,

There are a few basic things in my current setup that I'm not very comfortable with. Since we're on blackfriday -> cybermonday I think it would be a nice season to make some changes [cloud - e-mail - calendar - cloud - DNS] Here's the deal:

E-mail / Calendar Strategy

  • Using tuta for more than 2 years but I still rely on my gmail address for many things; issues with Tuta:
  • troublesome to export/make backups (worse since I have many folders, would be folder by folder)
  • not a fan of not having an e-mail client on my desktop (not issue in mobile phone), also don't love the calendar

What would be ideal:

  • a nice mail provider, possibility of easy backups, possibility of using e-mail client (this one is not a hard requirement)
  • Calendar, end-to-end encrypted: a hard requirement since I store some sensitive data there. Should be easy to see on mobile (e.g.: dedicated app); for desktop it does not matter much to me I guess the calendar requirement excludes nextcloud and most providers, as well as calDav stuff and similar
  • I wouldn't mind if it would be 2 products working side by side if no alternatives are available (calendar and e-mail, but not ideal)

Backups and Cloud Storage (for redundancy)

  • I have 1 cold backup at home, another at someone else's home (both encrypted) but to be safe I'd like to also have a trustworthy cloud Cloud: -end-to-end encrypted or -> next bullet
  • compatibility with cryptomator is a big plus (though I want to avoid Apple/Google/MS/Dropbox)
  • possibility of mounting the cloud storage as drive on my computer (not hard requirement this one)
  • could be 2 products side by side (not ideal though): a storage solution for entire backup (wasabis and stuff) and a cloud solution (day to day usage)

DNS for filtering

I'd like a solution to have all traffic filtered (malware, ads) system wide on my laptop/desktop I have used adguard in the past; open to all other possibilities. I also have mullvadVPN; wouldn't using a different DNS defeat the purpose of the VPN? Or when VPN is on, the DNS is always the one of the VPN? Possibilities:

  • controlD (i have seen people vouching for it)
  • NextDNS (system settings)
  • MullvadDNS (system settings)
  • adguard desktop app

Malware / Virus / etc

I have a linux desktop and macOS laptop. My doubts are regarding macOS. I've seen so many new antivirus ads that it almost makes me think that I should have one. I have malwarebytes installed for occasional runs and CleanMyMacX (I have doubts regarding its security claims - I use more for system management)

  • Should I opt for an antivirus program? If so, which would be advised intego is showing up all the time weirdly)

This time of the year is when I can gear up, since financially I haven't been at the top.

For those that will answer, thank you so much in advance!!!!
