  • Search is working fast, which is nice. Unfortunately it seems to focus on articles in my language without possibility to switch to English, so 1. someone might argue this narrows down who is using it, and 2. sometimes I need to search for an article in other language.
    Also, from issues on github it seems that it can be a little buggy atm

    At the same time, on wikipedia, ublock sees only wikipedia and wikimedia domains. And the page even doesn’t need to ask about cookies. I don’t think wiki has a problem with privacy, per se. Of course in countries with stupid governments this might be a good idea




  • I think this article is so-so. For example

    • Display: Screen timeout: Shortest duration you are comfortable with
    • Wallpaper & style: Set your lock screen to something generic and non-personal (no family photos, etc)
      (…)
    • Security & Privacy: Device Unlock: Screen lock: Strong password preferred, followed by PIN, then Pattern.
    • Security & Privacy: Device Unlock: Screen lock settings: Enhanced PIN privacy: Enabled
    • Security & Privacy: Device Unlock: Screen lock settings: Lock after screen timeout: Shortest duration you are comfortable with

    These don’t affect “the amount of tracking and data collection these devices perform”. Might be good ideas in themselves, but bundling these with options that really diminish the amount of data broadcasted, washes the picture out IMO
