Is Tor browser on Mullvad DNS a bad idea?
I set secure DNS to Mullvad DNS.
Since I can't afford a VPN, I do my web searches on Tor browser.
like this
No. It's fine.
Tor uses its own DNS system to my recollection. It's true there is DNS as part of fingerprinting and DNS leaks are a concern for VPNs (see for example dnsleaktest.com/) but Tor is not vulnerable to this and it's more a problem of you're using a VPN to appear to be in NYC but your DNS shows Phoenix so that's a big discrepancy that raises the uniqueness of your fingerprint on a VPN and even lets threat actors guesstimate where you actually are. As I said though this is not an issue on Tor.
So understand that the DNS from Mullvad will only affect other programs not Tor. It will prevent say your ISP's DNS from seeing your video games calling their domains that way. Your ISP can still see you're connecting to infrastructure for as an example Genshin Impact when you launch the game because they can see where your traffic is flowing and the IP addresses as well as traffic patterns, ports, etc. It somewhat limits the data and visibility they get but there is something called SNI snooping as well as of course the fact they know the IP addresses where your connections go. So it's perhaps better than nothing but understand the limits of it as they still have a lot of visibility though they shouldn't be able to see your web searches regardless just that you're accessing google or bing or duckduckgo as those sites use HTTPS.
DNS leak test
DNSleaktest.com offers a simple test to determine if you DNS requests are being leaked which may represent a critical privacy threat. The test takes only a few seconds and we show you how you can simply fix the problem.www.dnsleaktest.com
More context please. Where did you set the DNS? Smartphone, desktop? In browser or on system settings?
Assuming the following: You set the general DNS on your AOSP based smartphone to Mullvad and use Tor bowser simultaneously.
This is perfectly fine as Tor browser uses its own DNS. They won't interfere.
Epstein scandal broadens as trove of letters from famous figures published
The letters, written to Epstein by a number of high-profile individuals, were reportedly compiled as a birthday gift for Epstein’s 63rd birthday in 2016.
In one letter, former prime minister of Israel Ehud Barak and his wife wrote “there is no limit to your curiosity.”
“You are like a closed book to many of them but you know everything about everyone,” they wrote, describing Epstein as “A COLLECTOR OF PEOPLE”. They continued: “May you enjoy long and healthy life and may all of us, your friends, enjoy your table for many more years to come.”

Chomsky tells WSJ his meetings with Jeffrey Epstein are "none of your business"
Noam Chomsky met multiple times with Jeffrey Epstein, long after a court ordered the disgraced financier to register as a sex offender.Katie Balevic (Business Insider)
"What was known about Jeffrey Epstein was that he had been convicted of a crime and had served his sentence," Chomsky told the Journal about his meetings. "According to U.S. laws and norms, that yields a clean slate."
For a propaganda expert that's an incredibly bad comeback from Chomsky.
Domain names for catch all email aliases
I'm looking into getting some domains for email, so I don't need to use the same few addresses for everything. In doing this, the domain name itself becomes the identity, but it's also entirely arbitrary.
What is a good method to choose domain names so that they look more or less normal? Catch all addresses can of course be detected in SMTP, but the idea is just to not look suspicious. Would anyone be comfortable sharing the constructions they use? (though not the domains themselves, for obvious reasons) Should I use subdomains for the things that can safely be correlated, (as spam defense) or is it better to only use different mailboxes on one domain?
Something you can remember...
Catch alls are most useful when you are away and you need to give an email out. If you can't remember the domain that becomes a pain.
I’m looking into getting some domains for email, so I don’t need to use the same few addresses for everything.
Getting a custom domain for email is smart. It’s a necessary step given how data is treated these days. The domain becomes your identifier, but it's essentially arbitrary. I switched from sharing a single email address (which predictably led to breaches and spam) to creating dedicated emails for each service. Now, when an account gets compromised, I just redirect that email to oblivion. It’s a clean break, and a strangely revealing look at how online identities get resold and repurposed. Worth considering.
It's literally in the book. Harry becomes a wizard CIA agent. They still have slaves at the end. The book ends with Harry wondering if his chattel slave will bring him food. They don't help the muggles, they don't rectify the injustice of their tiered society.
I think the anti fascist angle is a nice thing to get from it but it's not really supported by the text. Riddle is ontologically evil for no reason, he's bad Dumbledore. Dumbledore controls the entire society and can act with impunity. I don't even think all this stuff is intentional. It's just not that deep.
For sure, there's an unhealthy internet thing of just hating stuff, I hope it's obvious I'm not doing that. I actually think the books for younger kids are overall better and a lot of the worst stuff could have been avoided if she just stuck to writing fun mysteries for children. She was pretty good at snarky irreverent kid stuff.
The biggest fans in my life hate the epilogue too, so you're in good company there.

German club backs out of signing Israel striker after fan backlash
Bundesliga 2 side Fortuna Dusseldorf has pulled out of signing Israel striker Shon Weissman in response to fan anger about his social media posts on the Gaza war, German tabloid Bild has reported.
Fan furore erupted online on Monday when news emerged that Weissman was on the cusp of joining Dusseldorf from Spanish side Granada FC.
Bild reported that Weissman called for Israel to “wipe Gaza off the map” and to “drop 200 tons of bombs on it”.
The 29-year-old had also liked posts saying “there are no innocents [in Gaza], they don’t need to be warned”.

From Gaza: A Student’s Story of Loss, Resilience, and Hope
cross-posted from: hexbear.net/post/5757723
My name is Soliman — a young man and student from Gaza, carrying a burden far heavier than my age. Between my studies and the hardships of life, I try to be the backbone of my family in the most difficult of times.We once had a small farm — olive and citrus trees, and a greenhouse where we planted not just crops, but dreams.
That farm was our only source of income, and more than that, it was a place full of memories, of hope, and of the laughter that once made life a little easier.
But in a single moment, everything was gone.
A fire reduced our years of effort to ashes.
We lost our source of living, our stability — and with it, a part of our souls.
Now, despite the pain, I’m trying to start over. I’m doing everything I can to keep my family standing, to find even the smallest light of hope that might restore our strength, dignity, and sense of humanity.
On top of all this, I’m also struggling with serious health issues.
I suffer from a urinary tract infection caused by the lack of access to clean drinking water.
Here in Gaza, we’re forced to drink water mixed with sand and other contaminants — there’s simply no other choice.
It’s affecting my health badly, and I need treatment I can’t afford in these conditions.
I’m sharing my story with honesty and hope, praying it reaches a kind heart — someone who can help, or even just share it with others who might be able to.
If you’re able to support us in any way, here’s my GoFundMe link:
Every share, every kind word, and every small donation could be a lifeline for us.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for taking a moment to read my story.
I completely understand your doubt — the world is full of scams, and it’s your right to question things.
But my story is real, and unfortunately, what my family and I are living through in Gaza is beyond words.
The photo is real, the account is real, and the GoFundMe link was created by a friend in Germany because I’m unable to create one from Gaza.
All I ask is for you to consider sharing it if possible — or even just a prayer.
Thank you for your compassion, even if you’re still unsure.
Thank you for replying, and I’m sorry that bad actors on the internet make people like me have to be a little suspicious of posts like this.
Have you considered providing photographic proof that you are the person in the picture, such as providing a photo of you holding a piece of paper that says “Hello Lemmy” with the current date and time on it? Things like that are usually typical when you are proving your identity in a post like this because it allows people to analyze it for signs of photo manipulation. With nothing but a few photos of you in Gaza, it is impossible to tell if it is really you or if someone has stolen those photos and is impersonating you for money.
Assuming that you are the man in the photo, I do want to say how horrible I feel about the genocide happening in your country. Nobody deserves that, and most of the world sees the crimes happening against your people, even if those in power are too cowardly to do anything.

I'm sure this is the first of a long list of necessary public sector cuts that we're going to see. Not necessary because the program or the cause aren't justifiable. Necessary because a) we have a budget problem that existed well before the current tariff and soveriegnty crisis, and b) this government is about to commit to a whole bunch of new spending on infrastructure and national defence. We can't have it all and still reasonably pay for it. Hell, we may still not be able to pay for it.
But that said, consider priorities: Is women and gender equality better served by this program, or by having a safe, secure, and prosperous nation? Look south to consider the alternative.
I'd love to see WAGE stick around. Hell, I'd like to see it expanded. In the meantime, Canadians, especially the menfolk, can commit to equality each and every day to rightfully improve the conditions of women.

US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’
As two masked men dragged her into an unmarked SUV, Andrea Velez tried to focus on details she might later remember – one man’s red shirt, the car’s leather seats, a black backpack inside.
At 9.20am on 24 June in downtown Los Angeles, the 32-year-old was heading into work at a footwear company when the men in gator masks jumped out of their car and started chasing vendors and other people on the street, she recalled. As people fled, Velez froze and held on to her bag.
Suddenly, she recalled, one of the men slammed her to the ground and placed her into his car. The men had “Police” vests, but otherwise were in plainclothes and didn’t identify themselves. She didn’t know why they had taken her.
The men, it turned out, were Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) deportation officers. They were looking to question people about “whether they were lawfully present” in the US, an agent later wrote. Velez is a US citizen who grew up in downtown, not far from the incident.
“They just came out ready to attack anyone,” said Velez, in her first interview since her arrest. “I thought they were kidnapping me.”
A day after her arrest, the Department of Justice charged Velez with assaulting an officer, which could carry a 20-year sentence. The claim was shocking to Velez, who is 4ft 11in and said she had not laid hands on anyone.

Exclusive: UK pushed Arab states to condemn Hamas in UN conference statement
A UN conference in New York last week, attended by more than 100 countries and co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, aimed to advance momentum for a two-state solution.
Numerous diplomatic sources told MEE the UK was pivotal in pushing for these demands to be included in the statement, as well as the inclusion of strong language condemning the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023.
It was described as "both historic and unprecedented" by French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot.
He hailed that for "the first time" Arab and Middle Eastern countries "condemn Hamas, condemn 7 October, call for its disarmament, call for its exclusion from any form of participation in the governance of Palestine, and clearly express their intention to maintain normalised relations with Israel in the future and to join Israel and the future state of Palestine in a regional organisation".

Israel is ‘on the precipice of defeat’ in Gaza, ex-officials say — as Netanyahu believes only military victory can free hostages
Nineteen former Israeli military, intelligence and police chiefs warned that the Jewish state is “on the precipice of defeat” in Gaza, calling for an end to the war to save the hostages.
The retired Israeli leaders, including former prime minister and IDF chief Ehud Barak, said in a video released Sunday that Israel has accumulated too many losses in Gaza with no clear end in sight, with the officials accusing Netanyahu of keeping the war alive for the sole purpose of preserving the fragile right-wing coalition that controls his government.
“We are on the precipice of defeat,” said former Mossad director Tamir Pardo, referencing the mass backlash against Israel over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

in reply to Samsuma • • •Namely the first two. The premise of R2P or "responsibility to protect" has been heavily promoted and one of the major arguments for it was "the UN did nothing to stop genocide in Rawanda". Of course when R2P was applied it was to justify completely destroying Libya in service of US empire.
In truth, in Rawanda, the most heinous crimes were carried out by the RPF led by US puppet Paul Kagame on behalf of US interests.
The same issue in Sudan today is the US-israel-UAE arming RSF militants to throw the country into a perpetual civilian war. This is in line with the decades long zionist-American plot to fracture Sudan.
In Myanmar, again, the imperialists are heavily invested in propagating lies to justify various types of intervention in the name of human rights but really to expand their empire.
People dont just wake up one day and decide to exterminate their neighbors. Such genocidal campaigns are precipitated by imperialist schemes. And in cases when multi-lateral "human rights" interventions occur it has always turned out worse rather than better.
The world doesnt need more UN intervention it needs death to America.

Thanks for the sources, I've learned a lot more new material from this than I care to admit..

in reply to Samsuma • • •There is an interesting relevant history. Regarding the UN resolution 678 which justified the imperialist destruction and genocide of Iraq in the 90's, the US pressured all members on the security council to support it. Even non-permanent members.
Thankfully the US has much less leverage against Russia and China today compared to 35 years ago but I think its readily apparent that the UN "peacekeepers" are generally just used as cudgels on behalf of US-led NATO domination. Examples from Haiti to Lebanon to Mali
I would much prefer a UN that is utterly powerless than one that is used to justify genocidal sanctions on Iraq or Iran for instance.
Always glad to share when I have time. We are all always learning new things together 🫡
