Fijxu@programming.devto Technology•Websites Are Tracking You Via Browser FingerprintingEnglish8·2 months ago+1. Mullvad browser is the best when it comes to browse the clearnet (not Tor). Also, if anyone reading this, do not compile Mullvad browser yourself, only use the official binary from the Mullvad site (or the -bin variant if you use Arch Linux AUR) since from my testing, different compiled versions of Mullvad browsers come with different fingerprints.
Using an optimized build from CachyOS and using it on CreepJS will give you a low amount of visits, same goes with the Flatpak build, but the binary from the Mullvad site gives around 2k views, which means that at least 2k people have the exact same fingerprint as you, but of course, it counts the people that have visited CreepJS to test their fingerprint. There is also fingerprint.com which seems to be wayyy more advanced.
Fijxu@programming.devto Technology•Websites Are Tracking You Via Browser FingerprintingEnglish21·2 months agoSoooo, how do I access the full article? I have to pay? Lol
JS should have never leaved the Browser side. Now you can use this thing for Backend and is just awful
Fijxu@programming.devto Technology•Inappropriate Ads on Child-Directed Websites: Weight Loss Pills and Depression Tests for Kids.English5·3 months agoAds on child focused apps should be banned. Because big tech literally doesn’t care about the content of the ads and they don’t regulate them. They are full of malware and there was even an ad on YouTube recommending people to install an Adblock.

Fijxu@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•I have used Windows all my life, and I have some questions.2·3 months agoJust as a note, NVIDIA on Linux is not bad, BUT IS REALLY ANNOYING because you will get some random bugs that are only exclusive to NVIDIA cards. Like this one: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/non-existent-shared-vram-on-nvidia-linux-drivers/260304
If you have a low VRAM NVIDIA GPU and you want to play a modern game, you will have a bad time. (However, AMD and Intel should work just fine lolol)
Ubuntu lol
RECURSION!!!
Thanks meow
Fijxu@programming.devto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Does using Cloudflare's cdnjs compromise privacy?3·3 months agoI don’t trust cloudflare. That is just a JS CDN that pulls a file, but is still gathered from an external server. In my case, when I have to use CDNs to use a JS library, I just download the file and host it locally.
You don’t own the CDN, is controlled by other people, which means that of course is less private to the end user, and more insecure since you rely on the people running the CDN and the author or the library. What would happen if the library author/authors get hacked and they add malicious code to the library? (Asumming it doesn’t contain a
integrity
attribute like the one on your example).Is better to trust yourself, it doesn’t cost you anything to download a few kB of a JS file and serve it directly from your server. The page is not going to load 2s faster if you use a JS CDN
And no one wants this to occur to their websites: https://fossa.com/blog/polyfill-supply-chain-attack-details-fixes/

Fijxu@programming.devto Technology•There’s AI Inside Windows Paint and Notepad NowEnglish39·4 months agoMan, does ANYONE needs this? Probably no one. This addition is just another way to force people to use AI so they can gather more personal information about that person. Specially with Notepad.
Will people be able to do thing without AI on the future if it’s being pushed so hard on everything? Like, they want to make our brains smoother and dumber lol
I was going to say this. Linus took some months to think about the design of Git before even writing it.
I don’t think taking screenshots of everything you do every few seconds is telemetry.
