Actually police (and governments) don’t need to purchase your data. They can gather anything and everything from what people share publicly and constantly on social media. Countless numbers of people have been arrested because of what they shared publicly and the metadata included with that share.

If they need criminal info they have immediate access to it.

The concern isn’t that you do something wrong, it’s that the data that you put out there can be used against you in countless ways. Marketing, sales, and so on are the least of your worries. If anyone wants to threaten you, your loved one’s, or even trick you into thinking they are in a threat situation, most people don’t realize how easy that could be with the data they give away daily.

This! If you can get them for UK voltages and plow style. They are inexpensive and handle 15A, and give the power consumption data as well.

This! You have it set to “Allow”, so it’s allowing it. You need to set it to Deny.

As much as I would love this to kick MS in the backside, it won’t. The public at large has no idea what this is or why it’s bad and evil. They will buy a computer, it will come with Windows, and they’ll use it like they always have. Companies and Govts will gripe initially, but give in because their ancient VB enterprise apps only run on Windows.

I have been using purelymail with my own domains, and at $10 a year with no limit on domains or users under those domains, it’s amazing value.

Been using Purelymail, full email, but SMTP as well, and love the service thus far.

NetBird- tail scale but fully open source with web hi, built in or bring your own auth, clients for pretty much everything, and really powerful network separation and segregation functions, along with posture checks and tons more.

Headscale server, open source, self hosted, with the open source tailscale clients are the way to go.

Short answer, yes, you can forward port 11500 to port 443, but it means you’ll have to go to www.yourdomain.com:11500 and this may or may not work great with you applications inside the network depending on how they are set to run.

I used to use one years ago called yEd graph editor. Supremely amazing. It is free to use, but I don’t think it’s open source.

To the title of this article /post, all I can say is Duh.

90% of people who say they cant switch really mean they don’t want to. It’s really not about application availability, capability, or otherwise. It’s about it not being the same as what they have always done. NOTE: 97% of statistics are made up anyway.
