TechnologyI wonder why they still haven’t had their domain taken away, as it is hard to believe they didn’t upset their local government too.
The worst thing the UK could do is sanction the country where responsible people live, though I consider this unlikely. The second worst thing they could do is just block it nationwide on a network level.
PrivacyTest
I would rather not.
Old Reddit’s logged-out experience is a significant source of abusive scraping and automated traffic on the platform. It’s also an important interface for many long-time mods and Redditors. To strike the right balance between preserving your access to Old Reddit while preventing abusive scraping and automated traffic, over the next month we will start requiring everyone to log in.

PrivacyCloudfare doesn’t let me through. 🙄
If the majority of people would be right, the world wouldn’t be where it is today. Also, I do not tolerate insults, get blocked.
And I told you it’s not, with an real example.
Check my profile.
You are completely wrong.
Based on what? You haven’t provided anything objective that contradicts my argument.
Minecraft has chat control enabled by default (…)
What chat control are you talking about?
Private servers are the only way to block that and create a chat that is safe to use (ironically)
You shouldn’t be talking about private content in Minecraft at all, as the chat is inherently insecure. Private server or not.
So in your definition a private company has to do with privacy? I recommend you take a dictionary and follow your own advice.
It is about the ESA misunderstanding Microsoft’s and Mojang’s license agreement, nothing more.
Not privacy related.
Edit: Some people are apparently very delusional. It’s sad, since having proper discussions in spaces like this one becomes almost impossible because of that. I will no longer reply to anything on this comment that fits the category of delusion.
They have false advertisement, which is illegal in some jurisdictions including Germany, wouldn’t recommend it.
I wouldn’t recommend NYM, I tested it for multiple months, it’s quite unreliable and had serious security issues (e.g. updates weren’t available through multiple repositories they publish to).
I’m not from Brazil, but thanks for opening this informed discussion, I think this matters.
You’re welcome, I encourage you to check out my latest reply.
But if you check the source you’ll notice that they don’t add any code themselves, they simply take Chromium and apply patches from Vanadium (Helium is commented for now) and build an apk.
Quote from the README from the repository it sources the Vanadium patches from:
It depends on hardening and compatibility fixes in GrapheneOS rather than reinventing the wheel inside Vanadium. For example, GrapheneOS already provides a hardened malloc implementation so there’s no need for Vanadium to replace it. Similarly, it can deploy security features causing breakage on other operating systems due to the ability to fix compatibility problems in the OS.
However, there may be other people like me out there who think it’s a good value proposition.
I’m sorry, but it’s an objectively bad recommendation. Vanadium is currently held intentionally exclusive to GrapheneOS by its team because of the reasons quoted above. Taking Chromium, applying Vanadium patches and extension support, and having one stranger maintain it is not a viable option. Even when he doesn’t write code himself, regular updates are a must, and if he discontinues or can’t keep up with updates for one of many possible reasons, all the people who relied on it will experience a massive security decrease if they don’t migrate to another browser. Real examples would be: Mull, Mulch and Bromite.
It’s something fun to check out and play around with, but no one should use it as a daily driver unless they fully understand all the risks and can act accordingly.
Would be nice if you could correct it in your original post too.

TL:DR: Yes. Long answer: It’s complicated.
