Therr was spying concerns ever since they introduced intel management engine to their chips - which cant be easily disabled - but this arricle is not about that

pegasus

Yes thanks for correction

These things you are experiancing are not normal. A spyware may have got to your phone somehow and if you dont know how did that happen it will likely happen again with your new android phone. What I would do if I was in your place is taking the phone to apple and ask if they coukd scan it for me.

are you someone politically important? Someone in comments mentioned israeli spyware called pigasaus and it can target both iphone and android

Redlib

Thanks will be very handy when I get reddit llink in search result and can not open it

I get it on reddit :/

I’d check https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search because most browsers including mozilla firefox rely on google safe browsing.

The other thing to point out is that if an attacker somehow got root access, they could install a so called “rootkit” and what it does it replacing some of the basic commands like top, ps, … with altered ones in order to hide the malware activities

few years ago I was contacted by digital ocean because they got reports about myserver being involved in ssh attack or something like that. Turns out my old drupal website had unpatched vulnersbilities that allowed attacker to access my system and use it for attacking others.

am not saying that to defend your provider they should have at least give you a warning. I an saying that to check yiur server as it may have been compromised

Thanks TIL about fennec fox

Given that they dont offer firefox, I dont see why they would offer thunderbird

This all started when US banned google from doing business with huwawi. They could no longer use google products including good play services - which many apps depend on - and google play store. They had to come with an alternative or go out of business

How is that legal? Could u buy a dishwasher then 3 months later it starts asking for a small fee per wash?

I know these things happen but usually you are informed in advance and bought the product at a big discount

Firefox french translation, not perfect but usable.

Why was he under threat of a research mandate?

The Justice considers that the lack of moderation, cooperation with the forces of law and order and the tools offered by Telegram (disposable number, cryptocurrencies, etc.) makes it complicit in drug trafficking, paedo criminal offences and fraud.

This research mandate ran if, and only if, Pavel Durov were in the national territory. “He made a pellet tonight. We don’t know why… Was this theft just one step? In any case, it is ready-made”, slips a source close to the investigation to TF1/LCI. Ever since he knew himself persona non grata in France, Pavel Durov used to travel to the Emirates, to the countries of the former USSR, to South America … He had travelled very little in Europe and avoided the countries where Telegram is under surveillance.

What now?

Investigators from the National Anti-Fraud Office attached to the Customs Directorate (ONAF) notified him and held him in police custody. He should be presented to an investigating judge this Saturday evening before a possible indictment on Sunday for a multitude of offences: terrorism, narcotics, complicity, fraud, money laundering, concealment, child-criminal content…

Detectportal I think is for knowing if your internet connection requires some sort of login. Like is that case in some hotels and airports

First mentioned by linus techtip.

i had fun arguing with chatgpt about this

It also means no AMD server could be resold because there is no way to know if it was previously infected

There is always a catch.

in this case I’ll bet its the price

Whats wrong with regular firefox?

Why wont we have viable alternative ? We already have
