Looking to set up a basic static website. What domain registrar should I go with? Would prefer something that has more privacy obviously. Any recommendations on hosting services (cannot host on own hardware right now)?

I would need something that has reasonable security, can work with LetsEncrypt SSL certs, and preferably has either privacy respecting analytics or no analytics. Don't want google to bother me or my website visitors.

Are there any robot vacuums/mops that respect privacy; that don't map your house and phone home with the information?

what is Lemmy.one's stance on Meta engagement with the Fediverse? by unfazedbeaver in c/privacyguides@lemmy.one

It seems meta wants "off the record" meetings with instance admins, such as Fosstodon https://fosstodon.org/@kev/110592625692688836

1Password: Rolling out telemetry this summer by unfazedbeaver in c/privacyguides@lemmy.one

In that case, assuming I read you correctly, I have to disagree. Privacy and security companies cannot rely on advertising or telemetry to be profitable; doing so is counter and paradoxical to their standing as a security/privacy company.

Bitwarden seems to be doing just fine. 1Password should be taking cues from them, not advertising revenue

Nah. Its just a tried and true step of enshitification. Fingers crossed that bitwarden is already profitable so we still have a good cloud password manager...

Genuinely cannot tell if you are sarcastic or not.

Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides? by unfazedbeaver in c/privacyguides@lemmy.one

I'm not sure its a good idea to recommend in privacy guides if it is a security issue or it breaks things...

Honestly, we don't deserve some of these good developer folks. We are super lucky to have them.

Just wanna take a moment to let people know about a very, very good and reputable tool for privacy and windows. I personally think it should be recommended on the main Privacy Guides site if you use windows. This is not a substitute for using Linux, however.

Linux is better, but if you have to use Windows, the Chris Titus Tech tool is quite easy to use, extremely powerful, and has been actively developed for a long time. You can set power-user privacy options easily, massively debloat your windows installation, install programs, and easily set your update settings to security only, if that is what you want.

Just wondering about the communty's and mod's thoughts (like Jonah). I've used the tool for a long time and I am always impressed with it, especially as it comes from somebody who has a sterling reputation on computer and Linux know-how

It's also freaky easy to use, and comes from one of the foremost minds in the tech world today.

I'm considering using Power Delete Suite to delete my account, overwrite my previous comments, and maybe leaving a couple of my top comments up regarding tech support so people can still find information on troubleshooting
