Mozilla's "*privacy not included" page is honestly quite useless to me.

It seems like everything passes their "this product meets our minimum security standards".

PS4 for example. Everything passes yet PlayStation can view your unencrypted messages at anytime. That doesn't sound very PRIVATE to me.

The Tor Project: "If you donate $100 or more before 23:59 UTC (7pm ET) Nov 27, you'll be entered to win a Tor swag pack with a hoodie, t-shirts, and stickers."

Also The Tor Project: "valued over $650"

There is no way in hell 1 hoodie, 2 t-shirts, and some stickers is worth over $650.

@jerrrrrrrard AnonAddy doesn't look bad. At least not as bad as 33mail. 33main contains many trackers on their website that im no fan of.

@nikolal @error @mister_monster -_- I had a feeling it was odd when they said it wasn't. Those Reddit people are something else.

@error @nikolal @mister_monster I've tried to start replying to people, but there are so many smart asses that want to act like they know it all and when they reply to me.

Also, the /r/privacy 's rules are over the top for me. I'm scared that one of the moderators will get all pissy for no reason since their rules are dumb but understanding.

I can't recommend so many things, like Cryptomator for example, because its not open source, and they don't like that.

Ill press the limits if I have to.

I finally got my Keybase account back. They wouldn't let me reset my account at first (even with a verified email). But after waiting 7 days, my account was reset and I got it back.

RIP to all my chats I never got to check.

There are so many questions I see on /r/privacy that I have answers to, but I just stay away from Reddit.

I even see the people get bad replies and terrible advice from others.

@dreamerx The download is hosted on Github. Make sure you can visit github.com

@bidetaggle Do you use any DNS or possibly have something that would be getting in the way of your secure connection?

This can happen if your traffic is being monitored or changed.

Make sure your device is free from any virus as well.

If you have custom network settings such as a DNS or VPN on, turn it all off amd try to visit the websites.
