It worked perfectly well. It still works. Companies can transfer the data and no one gets sued. Legal enough.

It doesn't support syncing properly, if you use it on desktop + Android + iOS you have to trust three different app vendors, browser integration isn't nearly as good as 1Password, custom fields are badly integrated.

Bitwarden is subscription-based too. Or are you on the free tier with almost no features?

They had massive problems with their main database cluster (MySQL). If you read through their engineering blog, most of the outages were related to their growth and the main database cluster. They moved workloads for some features to differ

It's funny you say that because kids today don't really have files either, since all the content is confined in apps.

And that's why we shouldn't fix bugs anymore? https://xkcd.com/1172/ Fixing this would only affect users who send emails "from" other users email addresses, basically users who commit fraud.

That's not true. SPF and DKIM were explicitly made to prevent email forging by authenticating the server, and the server is responsible for authenticating the user. Please name even a single major mail provider that allows to send emai

No, they don't do that check, that is the problem.

by 15characterslon 5y ago
As others said, DKIM always includes "from". And almost none of the emails I get are S/MIME or PGP signed. Like you said: SPF and DMARC only authenticate the server. It's up to the server to authenticate the user. Scenar

AFAIK they still refuse to acknowledge the problem. But since they deleted the forum thread, how would I know. What they said in the forum doesn't make much sense. Yes, anyone in the wold can send emails with any address as "from&

Be aware that Mailbox.org allows any user to send emails as ("from") any other user via SMTP and these emails will look legit since they pass SPF and DKIM checks. Many consider this a security issue. There was a quite lengthy disc

But what alternatives are there? I just need a solution for the usual stuff: mail, contacts, calendar, notes, tasks, files and meetings. Microsoft? Haha, hell no (they never did free anyway). Also using multiple services (e.g. Fastmail for

According to statista, the UK has about 14 million residents younger than 20 years, so they're just counting everyone as a potential victim. https://www.statista.com/statistics/281208/population-of-the...

Maybe deliver high quality results for adblock users only. Lower server costs for adblock users while maximizing ad-revenue for users without adblock. Win-win.

You can set your own passphrase in sync settings. This will enable end-to-end encryption and Google won't be able to read your synced data (not just passwords but also history and other synced data).

I didn't mean to insult you. I think it's great if you're experimenting and I fully support that. It's just that the headline set high expectations and the article reads like this is being used in production, which I wou

The README could be improved here. I didn't know about Nitter, Invidious, ... It wasn't clear to me that these are just different frontends for the same services when I read the README.

That would be my point too. DNS-based content blocking is very ineffective and can be outsmarted very easily. DNS filters might be very easy to set up but if they become more major they can be outsmarted very easily - what if Google starts

Most major public (non-ISP) DNS resolvers support DNS-over-TLS today. (This includes Google, Cloudflare and Quad9.) The problem for the ISP is that switching to those resolvers would mean users would no longer use their DNS resolvers. I gue

It would be nice if it would support custom sync servers. I'm using a custom sync server with Firefox and therefore Lockbox does does not show any of my passwords after login.
