Proton.me: "We will be adding Monero as a payment option for our VPN plans by the end of Summer 2025. Source: https://x.com/davidgpeterson/status/1941500514803548636" https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/935538-accounts-payments/suggestions/33188971-monero-payment-option

For example cryptocurrency wallet seed phrase. One can add it to the notes field (password field is occupied by my wallet password).

I can also add new field of type "hidden" to the login entry, where i need to click eye icon in order to reveal the content.

Beside login items, there are also Notes items, which does not seems to feature hidden field.

I assume that in terms of security all field types (password, note) and all entries (login, note) are equally secured.

But the field which is not password or a hidden note of the login item, are more vulnerable due to someone look behind your back or due to a computer client-side scanning (spyware third party or built in OS made to screenshot ones screen)?

What is your suggestion on storage of a super-sensitive data like crypto. wallet seeds?

When I am following a person A on social network X and person B retweets person A post, it means that on my timeline is that post 2 times, a duplicity. How can i fix this issue in X settings, if that is possible?

On my years old free X account, I have been active in last days posting replies to other people (important politicians which gets many replies to their posts) comments (I mean politician posts, other person reply it and I reply to this reply), me adding around 30 replies in maybe 36 hours.

Interesting is that after these few days, when I go to https://x.com/me/likes I can not see a single like or a reply, yet my replies were thoughtful and opposing other people opinion. I have used secondary browser where I am not logged-in (Tor browser) to check couple posts if I can see my replies and I could see it. When I have been last active on X, before around 7 months, I see that I have got a reply to my comment.

On my recent comments, I can see a button with a vertical bars (like an analytics), yet it says that something went wrong, when I click it. Maybe some of my browser extensions blocks it.

In recent days, I have changed my account important/security settings and X not allowed me to ch

https://unstoppableswap.net/ / https://github.com/UnstoppableSwap/core makers (i do not mean a SW developers, but swap providers) seems to have swap markup (assuming a fee) of around 3% which is too expensive and along with the limits on amount of traded coin pretty unusable IMO. Am I missing any makers or source for it which allows near zero fees/markup? Why such makers are not available (by default)?

I am currently using RetoSwap https://github.com/retoaccess1/haveno-reto which allowed me to place and complete the BTC and ETH exchange to XMR at 0% fee. (only paying regular Monero tx fee for a temporary custody)

How to setup an UnstoppableSwap maker? Is it this https://github.com/UnstoppableSwap/core/blob/master/dev-docs/asb/README.md . I do not see any easy to understand tutorial for layman which would tell me the requirements (evaluate the cost) + be easily understandable.

Some feedback regarding Proton VPN documentation and some confusion regarding Firefox DNS configuration:

https://protonvpn.com/support/browser-extensions#firefox says:

"By default, Firefox does not route DNS queries through the HTTPS connection to our VPN servers" and then is mentioned a workaround to fix it.

That suggest alarming thing, that ProtonVPN Firefox user has to do some custom workaround in order to be private (prevent a DNS leak).

On another hand, https://protonvpn.com/support/dns-leaks-privacy says:

"DNS queries are routed through the VPN tunnel to be resolved on our servers"

these statements are a bit confusing/contradicting (though Proton later explains that this latest statement does not apply on a browser extension VPN apps) and Proton further adds at https://protonvpn.com/support/dns-leaks-privacy/#dns-over-https that the DNS leak can happen also due to enabled DoH feature in web browser.

Solution: ProtonVPN browser extension should (if possible) warn user i

On my desktop computer, I have tried to use Syncthing WebUI to add my remote headless server (no GUI/display, only CLI), which was established by just running ./syncthing command. I have got the ID from the CLI output.

Yet my WebUI tells me "connection refused" and "context deadline exceeded" and the headless server output shows "rejected: unknown device" next to my connection attempt.

In a "syncthing --help" output, I am unable to find any command which would add mine defined remote machine ID and allow its connections.

I have tried to access http://headless/ server IP:8384/ but it timeout. I am unable to find any firewall blocking, another service on a different port is accessible.

Any idea how to proceed interconnecting the two devices simplest way?

I have been told, that when entering foreign country address, I may be asked to verify passport details, I am unsure how it is when i enter russian address. I guess that when entering invalid address, I may be unable to claim my domain in case my domain registar bankrupt. Thank you in advance.

.SU registry asks that companies provide a copy of the registering company's Certificate of Registration or an excerpt from the Commercial Register. Individuals are requested to provide their ID card or passport number.

Here is how to report bad site, in case you find any clearnet traces on the .onion site, incl. email address.

In this particular case, I have been able to spot the ODER/BUY NOW link which lead to a clearnet site. Within a second, it then redirected to a onion site, where I have found an e-mail address. So i had 2 ways to report this (clearnet website and an e-mail).

So run whois lookup (for example at https://who.is/whois/ for mentioned clearnet redirect domain name) and inside the output, discover which nameservers/hosting company it is using. Since it has been using Cloud

1. Recognize the common signs

• Urgent or emotionally appealing language • Requests to send personal or financial information • Unexpected attachments • Untrusted shortened URLs • Email addresses that do not match the supposed sender • Poor writing/misspellings (less common)

2. Resist and report Report suspicious messages by using the “report spam” feature. If the message is designed to resemble an organization you trust, report the message by alerting the organization using their contact information found on their webpage.

I have found also these phishing reporting pages:

If anyone wants to check, here is a video showing a Firefox dev. console (F12 key) and errors occured on https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=Oslo#map=8/59.973/10.723

I would like to find the causing extension without the need of disabling extensions randomly or by disabling half of extensions, then if issue solved, disable half of that half etc..

Sometimes it helps to hover over the link near the error on dev. console (F12 key), Console tab, to see the moz-extension://somestring and find first characters of the string at page about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox Though this time, it does not show that IMO (per the linked video).

If I should click something particular in a FF dev. console (F12), please guide me. Thank you.

Hello,

Feather wallet Monero synchronization (that happens after startign the Feather wallet) which is not done over Tor is enough anonymous?

After removing all passwords under three dots/kebab menu in the top corner of the page "about:logins", i wanted to import passwords from a Proton Pass to see how it works. Yet there is no import menu entry. After researching, I have found a solution that I want to share:

go to "about:config" page, and search for "signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled". Set it to true by double clicking on "false". Reload "about:logins" page to see the import menu entry under three dots corner menu.
