For security reasons, we keep JavaScript disabled even when browsing our own websites (which are ran on remote servers). If it was locally developed, it wouldn't be a problem to have JavaScript enabled. Also, as a side…
In a future release, I highly recommend keeping the simplicity by allowing people to browse the basic stats page without requiring JavaScript. Other than that, it is a great project.
Just a slight correction, he lived in Hong Kong when he founded Megaupload and moved to New Zealand later on. Pure speculation but I imagine he moved to Hong Kong to avoid German law after his past conviction there for…
Is there a guide on how to do this but in a completely isolated way? So that DNS leaks, accessing local networks, etc aren't possible, making it into a router condom for a non-trusted computer?
I'm sorry but that's just incorrect. I'm not going to provide my background info but I can say for sure that Russia is a very bad place to host now. Pre-2012 it was good but now they enforce copyright laws and…
Using Spreedy to act as a 'white' proxy to their API would make it an even harder job for Stripe to detect the fraudsters. What would be your solution to the problem?
Telegram is not based in Russia. Pavel Durov fled the country and is currently operating Telegram from Germany.
Did you read the previous articles? Allegedly Paul Le Roux created TrueCrypt (because a domain name is linked to him or something like that). Even if he didn't create TrueCrypt, he definitely created the pre-forked…
Hola doesn't route users through other users, it uses proxy servers. Users are turned into exit nodes for Luminati.io customers (servers/bots) only.
If the alternative DNS system allowed us to upgrade our current domain names to the decentralized protocol, then you're not fighting for everyone to start using new TLDs which would be a huge hurdle. Ideally, the…
For organic traffic pirate sites, the biggest blow was Google's algorithm change. For websites which used a freemium model, the biggest blow was PayPal, Visa and Mastercard banning file sharing websites from using them.…
On topic of LN, I feel that is the best approach from a privacy perspective. It's unnecessary to make every single transaction in the foreseeable future get appended to the blockchain and it sounds Orwellian.
> little Irish startup Are you the owner of Ezfile/Filecloud by any chance? If you are, I'm actually quite curious to discuss payment processors with you. Last I checked, you're using Amazon gift cards and Bitcoin. Have…
On note of the save files, I really hope we gain the ability to port PS3 gamesaves to PS4 and also the ability to use save files from the internet. It's madness that Sony doesn't let us do this. Also, I am somewhat…
You should tell Kimble that message, he's currently determined to launch MegaNet using mobiles to store data when they're idle in a p2p network.
I just want to launch websites to test an idea, see if it works. But with VAT MOSS I have to go through a mess just to ensure I'm doing everything legally, even though I might not even continue with the idea after 1…
Pure direct democracy, sure. But Switzerland is has a 'pause' from when the referendum collects signatures to when it actually happens. This gives the 'hive-mind' time to calm and to think more rationally over…
Am I the only one who prefers the current internet over IPFS? IPFS exposes my IP to anyone who wants to know about the websites I'm visiting. As seen with BitTorrent, that power gets abused significantly. I would prefer…
I had to stop working on a website which was soon to launch when I learned about VAT MOSS. Although, I was thinking whether a faucet-style (india/russia/romania workers) website could pay people $N per email to send the…
What would happen to transactions on Monero in a post-quantum world? Would all of the transactions become transparent to the 3/4 letter agencies? Does the 'mixing' of coins happen on a server (so you trust the server…
Sadly, GEMA is a stranglehold on internet freedom over there. > I like the way Germany is going Germany recently planned (or passed?) a law requiring mandatory data retention, that's Germany going the wrong way IMO.…
Can you elaborate on that claim? WorldPay is taking a percent of tax revenue, for what reason?
Iceland IMO would only be good if the Pirate Party actually wins the election, but at the moment I think it's too soon to consider that country an option for myself. Norway, Denmark, Germany & Belgium censor websites…
In a past HN thread someone posted the same conclusion, of just moving country. I feel the exact same as well, but utopia doesn't exist, so what country do people suggest? Finland, Switzerland, Czech Republic or South…
I also use Switzerland, but you should read up on BÜPF, they're wanting to go down the direction of the UK. Hopefully the direct democracy lets people throw the law out :\
