This is the way to do it. Very glad to see that you value these important facts. I need a new Iranian provider, could you recommend one? I'd settle for similar if that is not available.

With Wireguard, the listening port does change each time you connect.

I see quite a lot of people here talking about Mullvad. While I do trust their intentions as being good, the fact that they are so large, and based in a country that does in fact answer to some USA demands, I would not use them. I'm not positive, but I think I remember someone mentioning that Wireguard configs are generated client-side but with JS, where you would then have to implicitly trust Mullvad not to store your private key. The providers I use, the generation is done completely locally, and you only upload them your public and PSK.

This is HN. I'm surprised people haven't mentioned some of the really privacy conscience providers based off shore. They do exist, and surely do not cooperate with shitty demands for your info.

Or simply to be used as sites for non-violent demonstration?

Let us hope for the good of humanity that all the nasty secrets about truly terrifying Intel ME is.

That is the point I was trying to make when I replied to another poster. There is no room for a central information gatekeeper.

I'm so glad I never signed up to use any social media, look at what it has done to society.

We literally cannot do anything because then someone would then be the gatekeeper in charge of information. Just as an example for how that is currently working, look to FB or Snopes with their labeling of certain, actual facts, "misinformation" due to it only not being of a particular political leaning.

Of course. Sensible bills are quashed rather swiftly. Especially these days.

One must always stand up for freedom, no matter how wrong you may think the other view point is.

What they are doing to this man is criminal.

Very nice. When the government calls us a terrorist for wanting privacy and using VPN's, then it's time to embrace the label. I have no problem with what ever name they throw at me.

I have not bought Apple in ages due to them not being power user friendly any longer, and now this seals the deal to never buy their products again.

A decentralized registry is badly needed.

More decentralized technologies are desperately needed.

What is the recommended way to find out the hosting company of a website, and then the upstream ISP's, when contacting the offending site host does no good?

Thanks in advance.

What do you advise is the correct way to setup to shield from networks before VPN is active?

Could you please inform me how the requirement or use of a TPM increases surveillance? I am not too informed in this area.

If you have not already, please check out the wonderful alternatives to iOS/Android that do not trample over your privacy, see https://grapheneos.org or Debian for mobile (which is still very much a WIP).

It is simply unacceptable for a company or government to scan your property that you not allow.

Is there a way to check Android devices for infections yet?

Exactly. 'Bad' and 'terrorist' is just the word play decision of some politician who surely does not have your best interest at heart.

People are really getting fed up with being lied to on a constant, grand scale.

There are programmes doing this in the West as well.

Was a time I long to go back to. I would certainly only own a landline if other factors didn't require me maintaining a mobile phone.
