Mullvad or IVPN. Some VPNs like Perfect Privacy do leak your IP via DHT and other torrent features, even when full lockdown mode is on. You can search ‘torrent leak test’ to verify yours doesn’t. I found out with a 2nd DMCA warning from my ISP.
Almost every single VPN site I’ve ever come across is just shilling referral links for the highest paying VPNs. Even the privacy sites with old good articles, their new articles for the best VPNs/most secure/ETC are all the best paying referrals.
VPNs are not good for anonymity. They are good for public networks, and stopping companies that are heavy on piracy to not send you DCMA warnings when you torrent. That’s it. If you are actually doing criminal things (or are in a country where you’re treated as a criminal) they can traffic shape and find out who you are quick. Even multihop VPN providers aren’t much better.
Funny eh? If you select show only mullvad-owned servers (pretty sure those are the only ones with encrypted RAM drives) then they’re all 5eyes and a couple other 14eyes countries. No USA though. They also disconnect constantly and are slow.
Obviously anecdotes
That’s the understatement of the cenozoic era.
Nothing, if you want. You can disable network permissions on play services. Google DDG first to make sure that won’t break the game. Depends on what the game uses play services for… if it’s some local functionality it will be fine, if it’s remote functionality then it will break.
That’s my point. Neither is Putin. Netanyahu’s approval ratings are rock bottom.
It’s the Mongols who allowed Ghengis Khan to commit his shit.
Uh oh, now you should be worried considering his lineage is in most of us. Those damn Mongol ancestors of yours. Why were your ancestors so complicit in the rape and pillage of continents? I think that makes you complicit, too, by your logic.
Pitchforks at the ready everyone.
Funny how everyone picked up on and quotes the single instance news story. Like litter boxes in school bathrooms, left-leaning edition. Let the hate flow through you
It may be a conversation worth having in a 1 to 1, but internet denizens crave hate and hate as much as they can when they can.
Usually I get downvoted for “let’s come together” comments that say things like all Israelis and Russians shouldn’t die in a fire, because they are not all bad, when people are calling for culling them. The internet is weird.

Ironically, GrapheneOS is pretty much that (minus the hardware) unless you want to get an iPhone or Windows phone. You’ll have to have Play Services to play the games you want to play; may as well use the only sandboxed version afaik. The reason the Pixel line was chosen is because it’s essentially what iPhone is for Apple… There will be no vendor add-ons or modifications, just stock android which can be modified into things like GrapheneOS. But it’s more for security and privacy than it sounds like you need. Just keep in mind whatever you choose, cracked apps have a much higher chance of containing malware unless you learn to crack them yourself, but then you’d have no time to game.

Since the Play services apps are simply regular apps on GrapheneOS, you install them within a specific user or work profile and they’re only available within that profile. Only apps within the same profile can use it and they need to explicitly choose to use it. It works the same way as any other app and has no special capabilities. As with any other app, it can’t access data of other apps and requires explicit user consent to gain access to profile data or the standard permissions. Apps within the same profile can communicate with mutual consent and it’s no different for sandboxed Play services.
ETA: It looks like there is a modified open source Play Services client called MicroG, which is basically a rewrite of Play Services that allows things to work, but things requiring payments or payments via NFC etc may not work.
I think you just want to play games without play services, not actually learn apk reverse engineering (which is a very complex skill), so MicroG is probably what you want. https://microg.org/
GeapheneOS (Pixel only) has sandboxed play services by default, with controls over location data, etc. Not sure if that’s what you’re after but I thought I’d mention it.
She used her car wreck claim from the year prior as a way to get disability payments. It’s right there in the short article.
Car wreck in 2017. Tree throwing contest in 2018.
The court had previously been told that the married mother-of-two, from Ennis in Co Clare, had spoken to doctors days after winning the Christmas tree-throwing contest.
She had claimed that she could no longer lift a heavy bag without suffering a shooting pain. Grabska quit her job and received disability payments, the court heard.
Thank you for that tip! I’ll scratch out my Tesla battery idea, this seems much cheaper than that, and much easier ignition than my nanothermite FireSuit™ idea. Much easier to obtain raw components from AliExpress as well.
Also various source confirmed that he is no more.
Thank all the Gods. I can’t imagine self-immolating for a cause, only to be extinguished.
I don’t need to read someone’s both-sides (or single-sided anger baiting) comment history to see the propa glow (or the drunken red chubby cheeks of useful idiocy).
Edit: but now that I have, it’s random American pop culture with vile hatefilth every few posts. I always should give the usual idiots the benefit of the doubt, because it turns out it was you that was posting “traitorous Republican filth” all over which prompted my original comment. How nice.
Republican traitor filth - 1 result, on a site that looks like it belongs shelved away in an astroturf network. I’ll check that search result again in a week.
Edit:
Russia saves the day, for once! Thanks Yandex. Astroturfing campaign confirmed.
90% of Republicans are “Republican” in the same way that 90% of people who celebrate Christmas are Christian.
There was a minority (as far as total number of Republicans) of extremists at the capital as there are extremists in every group. But it’s funny that every one of those people seemed to be consuming and sharing Russian propaganda on social media. And Fox/Tucker Carlson and other complicit news agencies with the buildup.
It’s laughable the older I get seeing how many useful idiots there are. Including comrade cabron up there ^ either working for them, or chasing their carrot.
I say we execute all extremists in Minecraft. Problem solved for at least one generation.
I kid, violence against extremists creates even bigger violence. But soon the internet will be sectioned off by country or countries. Russia, China, Iran and many other middle eastern countries are already doing it. And everyone will be happier… for a while.
Or something comrade, or something.

It’s crazy to me to see so many people recommending these. I remember thinking ed2k was old when Kazaa and Morpheus came out.
I was looking at this page and it brought so much nostalgia. The days of viruses, “proggys” in Yahoo chat (I missed the AOL train), being a young teenage script kiddy on the Internet… That was the best time of the Internet for me. You could do and say anything and never felt like there was a panopticon watching you to slip up at any time.
