That’s interesting. What IP address is netflix hardcoding?

No, you can block ads with a pihole. This is because Roku hard codes its dns server as 8.8.8.8. Pihole doesn’t handle IP addresses, only DNS.

I’m using the stable version of Brave. Not nightly or Beta.

No, I am on the stable version of Brave.

I get it. My privacy settings explicitly say do not send telemetry, analytics or whatever else you want to call it. But they ignore my request and try to capture the data anyway. Dunno why they call themselves a privacy focused browser. I already uninstalled it and put in the Mullvad browser.

If you use uBO on medium mode, you don’t see any notifications, consent banners or pop-ups.

Yes, I’d like to swap the drive which has the OS on it.

You’ll definitely want to run the prefsCleaner.sh script at the same time you’re running the updater.sh script. The cleanup.js is more of a nice to do, than a need to do.

Yeah, I do that too but every now and then I’ll run the cleanup.js script. It always clears away a couple of deprecated prefs. I guess there is no harm in having those older prefs around but clearing them away seems nice.

Mullvad is great for people who don’t want to tweak their browser settings very much. But lots of us see the tweaking as a feature, not a bug. I customize the heck out of my browser and appreciate that FF allows for the customization.

Also the decision to exempt business and teams makes no business sense. Companies derive the lion’s share of their revenue from enterprise. If a company wants to optimize their product offering, you’d do so with your most desireable, profitable segment in mind. This just seems like a backwards decision.

I think more probably, they’re dogfooding it on the consumer segment and then after they’ve worked out the “oops, we shouldn’t have collected that bit of data” errors, they’ll move to include enterprise. But I’d guess that consumers are the guinea pigs here.

main vault is a full offline database in keepassxc

I’m curious what your config looks like for this. How do you keep your db offline but accessible? Is it a restricted docker container? How do you access it when you’re not at home or on multiple machines (like a laptop)?
