Hidden Photos available via USB
  • As an added layer of security, you can set the phone to self-destruct by going to Settings > FaceID & Passcode > Erase Data. If someone enters the incorrect passcode more than 10 times, the phone will erase itself. Assuming a 6 digit passcode, there are 1 million possible combinations. An attacker would have an effective 1 in 100,000 chance (.001%) of guessing your passcode correctly

  • Hidden Photos available via USB
  • Personally I like the way that this is implemented; makes it easy to download hidden media files onto my Mac. Anyways, if you’re worried about nudes/pr0n being seen by unauthorized parties, I wouldn’t recommend stashing them in your photos library anyways. There are vault-type apps in the App Store that masquerade as note/calculator apps (Calculator# comes to mind) which are more suited to addressing OP’s use case.

    Can subdomains using Cloudflare Tunnels be enumerated?

    I've been using Cloudflare tunnels in my homelab. I'm wondering how well they resist subdomain discovery/enumeration by bots/malicious actors. I’m aware that security through obscurity isn’t a real strategy, but I am curious about this from a purely academic standpoint. Aside from brute force guessing, are there any other strategies that could be used to find the subdomains of services tunneled through cloudflare?

    For anyone using Ghostery on their devices
  • It would appear that this is indeed the same ghostery that sold its users out to the highest bidder.

    I recommend using AdGuard which is free and doesn’t have such serious privacy issues:

    also there’s no need to pay, the free tier is more than sufficient

    Gluetun: The Little VPN Client That Could
  • gluetun bundles a control server on port 8000 which you can query for the port number (don't worry about openvpn being in the url path, it still works with Wireguard). In my bash script (running on the host system), I use curl to retrieve the forwarded port number and then do a POST with that data to the API of my qbt client which is running in another container on port 8080.

  • Gluetun: The Little VPN Client That Could
  • There’s a reason why most providers don’t allow that feature anymore

    Yes, cheese pizza

    It’s said that port forwarding is a security risk

    Says who? Assuming a fully patched system/client and a properly configured firewall/network, I'd love to hear more about these "risks".

    Also, qBitTorrent works just fine without it.

    Only if you don't care about seeding

    Apple calls 128GB 'lots of storage' in new iPhone 15 ad | AppleInsider
  • Maybe I'm in the minority, but I treat my phone like an old school digital camera. I routinely use Image Capture to export my photos/videos to my computer and/or external HDD. I've got a 256GB phone, but I'm never using more than 1/5 of its storage space at any given time

  • Transfer cash from Apple account?
  • Assuming you’re referring to Apple Store credit, I’ve run into this exact scenario before in a somewhat related way. Accidentally claimed a gift card I meant to send to someone else (be careful with that redeem button in the email lol, it’ll instantly apply the balance to your account with one click, so don’t fat finger it like me 🥲). Apple support wouldn’t (or couldn’t) undo that action. In other words, it’s a one way street. Once the credits enter your account, they can’t be used anywhere other than the Apple Store/icloud/App Store/etc
