  • Yes, because you wrote the config and she didn’t need anything fancy. Could she write or update the config by herself, or even upgrade?

    Between channels and flakes, the old and new CLI, the lack of documentation of a lot of options…

    I mean I love it and wouldn’t go back but it was a difficult journey, at leat at the beginning. Even today I sometimes find myself having to go read the code because the documentation is lacking.

    There are plenty of sites that use more than one parameters. It’s true that a lot of sites now use the history API instead of url parameters but you can still find plenty, and you have no garante about the parameters order. Any site with a search page that have a few options will probably use url parameters instead of the history API. It’s easier to parse and will end up being shorter most of the time.

    Well for youtube it’s quite easy, there are only 4 useful parameters that I can think of, the video id v, the playlist id list and index if it’s a playlist and the time t if you’re sending a specific time in the video. Everything else can be removed. Here’s what uBlock Origin with the AdGuard URL Tracking filter list:

    ! Youtube
    $removeparam=embeds_referring_euri,domain=youtubekids.com|youtube-nocookie.com|youtube.com
    $removeparam=embeds_referring_origin,domain=youtubekids.com|youtube-nocookie.com|youtube.com
    $removeparam=source_ve_path,domain=youtubekids.com|youtube-nocookie.com|youtube.com
    ||youtube.com^$removeparam=pp
    


  • This means putting your trust in Obscura, since they’re the 1st hop, receiving your data without additional encryption, a new player, who yet has to prove that they’re trustworthy.

    I’ve not checked but the whole claim is to use additional encryption, between you and the 2nd hop.

    With our 2-party setup, Obscura operates the 1st hop, and we’re proud to partner with Mullvad who operates the 2nd (exit) hop. As the WireGuard packets are end-to-end encrypted to Mullvad’s servers, we never see any parts of your packet in plaintext (not even SNI). In fact, you can check your connected server’s public key in the Obscura App against those listed on Mullvad’s server page!
