The Privacy Iceberg

This is original content. AI was not used anywhere except for the bottom right image, simply because I could not find one similar enough to what I needed. This took around 6 hours to make.

Transcription (for the visually impaired)

(I tried my best)

The background is an iceberg with 6 levels, denoting 6 different levels of privacy.

The tip of the iceberg is titled "The Brainwashed" with a quote beside it that says "I have nothing to hide". The logos depicted in this section are:

The surface section of the iceberg is titled "As seen on TV" with a quote beside it that says "This video is sponsored by...". The logos depicted in this section are:

An underwater section of the iceberg is titled "The Beginner" with a quote beside it that says "I don't like hackers and spying". The logos depicted in this section are:

A lower section of the iceberg is titled "The Privacy Enthusiast" with a quote beside it that says "I have nothing I want to show". The logos depicted in this section are:

An even lower section of the iceberg is titled "The Privacy Activist" with a quote beside it that says "Privacy is a human right". The logos depicted in this section are:

The lowest portion of the iceberg is titled "The Ghost". There is a quote beside it that has been intentionally redacted. The images depicted in this section are:

  • A cancel sign over a mobile phone, symbolizing "no electronics"
  • An illustration of a log cabin, symbolizing "living in a log cabin in the woods"
  • A picture of gold bars, symbolizing "paying only in gold"
  • A picture of a death certificate, symbolizing "faking your own death"
  • An AI generated picture of a person wearing a black hoodie, a baseball cap, a face mask, and reflective sunglasses, symbolizing "hiding ones identity in public"

End of transcription.

Pretty good!! I agree with 95%.

Loved the "As seen on TV" category!

I agree that Tuta is more secure than ProtonMail.

Some are blended like Tor, that should be in Activist if used in secured computer.

~~Was not aware of the existence of Coincarp (logo by GrapheneOS). Is a crypto price tracker used by Activists? I left crypto a couple of years ago but though Activists just don´t trade much and stick for the long haul and use Monero for purchases.~~

The problem with mullvad is a lot of its IPs are flagged as bots or denied around the web. Is there a good VPN that will still give access to most of the web?

[-] neon_nova@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 days ago

I’ve never had that issue with Mullvad unless it was for a streaming app.

Sometimes I get detected and it makes me do a cloud flare “I’m not a robot” page.

I use Keepass but mostly for convenience and I don't understand why it's in the 5th category. If I have 50 different accounts with 50 different passwords but they can all be had with one keepass password, how is that different than having 50 different accounts all using the same password?

[-] refutablewife@reddthat.com 5 points 1 day ago

If you use an easy password for your password manager, it's trivial to crack with a few word lists and hashcat, just as any other account.

Websites get hacked all the time, and your login details (and PII) ARE available for sale from shady people right now. It's important that, the next time one of the sites you use gets hacked, you don't have to scramble to update all your other logins.

I feel that I2P is missing somewhere in here too.

On the 5th layer I'd add NitroKey or YubiKey to remind people that in addition to software you can have physical tokens too.
