That wasn't the article. It was in some lesser-known magazine (maybe even a blog) and it wasn't about ISIS or the terrorists we know today. It was written specifically about the guy who created the program and his connection to drug cartels, if I remember correctly.
To explain, I read about this many years ago. It's about a journalist who tried to find out what was happening with TrueCrypt, and it turned out it was apparently connected to serious criminals who were killing people, etc. The story is actually really interesting, and I'd love to find the original piece. I have nothing against TrueCrypt, and in fact, I used it back then and still use it now (VeraCrypt).
Are you sure that the investment will be recouped so quickly? I'm not a local here and I'm not familiar with all the rules, but I've been told that I can't put anything on the balcony that will change the appearance of the building until I get permission from the Rathaus.
Obviously, you don't live in Germany or the EU, and it's questionable whether you've ever paid a single bill. Because the electricity bill is always separate from other bills and is a special contract.
It sounds strange, but that's how it is, and it's Ökostrom. Luckily, I can change my provider when they raise the price, so it won't increase that much for me, but it will still go up, and I'm not the only one in my area because some friends of mine received the same 'greeting.' (To those who give dislikes, that won't change the facts no matter how much you would like it to.)
Of course, I also use LibreWolf, Mull... but we expose ourselves to security risks this way (as is currently happening with Firefox and Mull), and besides that, you have to trust projects more and more whose code is not reviewed as thoroughly.
It seems that many people here are not aware of how much Mozilla depends on Google, so switching to them is a small consolation. Maybe it's time to support the development of new engines like Servo and Ladybird more. Servo even recently released an Android version (currently not very usable, but I downloaded it just to show support).
Exactly. In my opinion, that's Google's biggest mistake, and I can't believe some people are okay with it. Everyone attacks YouTube as if they are the biggest villains, but let's not forget that without them, most creators would be nothing. Most people here are aware of how difficult it is to maintain such a platform, yet they are unrealistic with their attacks. And yes, I am someone who has LineageOS installed, which says enough about what I think of Google, but sometimes you have to be fair. If they banned creators from having ads within their videos, I might even consider paying for premium.
