What does a world without Airbnb look like?
  • Yes, rentals existed before Airbnb but they were not monopolized by a foreign multinational company that is causing housing crises across the planet and that operates outside of legality

  • Both are equally important for the GNU/Linux world. Torvalds is more inclined to the "tech" side and Stallman is more like a "philosopher" the man who showed us the importance of free software.They are body and soul of the GNU/Linux. Long live to them.

  • Mullvad app without multihop x WireGuard official app

    Hi guys!

    Today I use Mullvad VPN on my Pixel 8 but unfortunately Mullvad team didn't enable multihop feature to use on Android app.

    Use WireGuard official app and importing wireguard key file is a good approach to have multihop feature enable on Android?

    ELI5: What kind of security mechanisms do software companies use to ensure that the source code of their products will be practically impossible to discover?

    Exemple: How does Apple guarantee that the iOS source code will not be discovered by an adversary?

    Is there any type of different encryption for this case?

    www.ivpn.net Your VPN provider won't go to jail for you for 5 dollars

    The phrase in the title is a common trope that comes up when VPN services are discussed.

    GL.iNet routers are trustworthy?

    I'm looking to replace my portable modem with a GL.iNet router because I saw that they claim to use OpenWRT which is a open source firmware.

    My question is:

    Is their OpenWRT version actually reliable?

    Set up OpenWRT as Bridge mode (main router)

    Hi folks!

    I have a modem/router from my ISP and an OpenWRT router that I would like to use as my main router. Would anyone have any tips on how to configure my OpenWRT router to work as my main router? I watched some videos on YouTube about Bridge Mode but it wasn't very clear to me.

    Every help is welcome.
