My wife (a technophobe) has a Samsung phone and uses Chrome. She is very concerned about her online browsing privacy and security. Any thoughts on the best privacy-focused Android browser / search engine for her? It needs to not have a steep learning curve. Not that she's dumb; just very impatient with technology! #android #privacy #security #web #internet

You may have heard that #mozilla introduced an #AI kill switch into #Firefox.

If you would rather use a browser that is less interested in #LLM technologies, @Waterfox has been your companion for over a decade.

I had a chance to ask the founder and developer some questions about Waterfox's history, operations, and their take on AI.

Enjoy and and share!

Canadians!

Bill S-209 is due for a section by section consideration in the Senate this Thursday (i.e. the equivalent of a full committee markup to Americans)!

Reminder: This bill would mandate privacy invasive Age Verification as well as give the Canadian government the ability to block ANY website that isn't compliant (search engines, Wikipedia, social media, etc.), not just "commercial pornographic websites" like the bill claims! One of the bills' sponsors essentially admitted this!

If this bill passes, it would be massively chilling to privacy and free speech in Canada! The Canadian government would control what you're allowed to see!

VPNs are, at best, a temporary solution here.

Call your Senators and House of Commons Representatives ASAP!
