Does fastmail let you use your own domain?
$5/month and an afternoon to set up unlimited email accounts on unlimited domains on one server. There are a few scripts/services out there that limit the pain.
This makes sense. Possibly the value of increased corporate sales of G Suite is worth more than the loss of the information gained from reading diminishing numbers of personal emails, as people turn more and more to…
HEADLINE: Consolidation of Documentation; Removal of Outdated Documentation DESCRIPTION: Any time you do a web search for anything regarding Debian, the search results include a huge amount of official but outdated…
I like the idea of genius as derived from genus, and meaning something like a particular kind of excellence, an exemplar of its kind, something's characteristic disposition. One can think of there being not one class of…
No doubt Google considers it a best practice, because they are in the business of knowing what people do on the internet. How often will a browser get the jquery for a particular website or check with the CDN? There are…
It depends on what you do with that blob; if you use it to request some required encrypted content, for example, users won't be able to do much about that.
My point is that anyone can use an adblocker or Squid proxy filtering to block GoogleAnalytics, but if the site uses jquery from a Google CDN to render content, that cannot be blocked without making the site unusable.…
Yes, why does a private website needs 10 trackers/data-miners? For the ad revenue?
Please, web developers, as a minimum, set up your websites so that they do not depend on Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon or Apple for their functionality. That means, for example, use DoubleClick or AdSense or…
Someday, there will be a topic on HN about which I too am knowledgeable... someday.
In addition, the blog post uses Google Fonts and jquery from a Google CDN. Could people please consider using a non-Google CDN for things that affect webpage functionality? Those of us that block HTTP requests to Google…
I read the Share Lab metadata report, based on an examination of the metadata in the headers of the emails exchanged between Hacking Team members. The level of detail this provides on the network and on the individual…
My vote doesn't mean anything either.
This is probably an unusual opinion, but for me privacy is similar to freedom. Freedom is usually defined as a negative: people are free of oppression, have freedom of speech (freedom from speech being constrained),…
It would be better if scripts like jquery were not encrypted. This forces users to use e.g. a google service instead of caching/hosting the scripts themselves or getting them from another CDN. I do not understand why so…
The "Year of the Linux Desktop" has been a running joke for a long time, but perhaps it's no longer a joke. Not wanting to lose control as far as updates and privacy is concerned, I switched to Linux when Windows 10…
