A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

can't anyone who runs a lemmy instance script all that in the db? alternately, can't anyone who claims to do so just not do it in the db? it's not like you would ever know.
A sketchy instance operator isn’t really a solid defense against implementation of better privacy features in the source code.
No, but it's important with privacy features for people to actually understand how they function and what their limitations are.
Lots of people think that incognito mode hides their activity from their ISPs. Last thing we want are people using Lemmy and thinking they can e.g. use it for secure communication, and getting caught by the feds.
