  • Start with the basics:

    • Harden SSH by only allowing public key authentication and use strong keys to authenticate instead of passwords.
    • Setup fail2ban (lots of online resources, check Linode guides) to block malicious IPs temporarily.
    • If the data you store is something only you should see, then it should not ever be connected to the internet, airgap wherever possible.
    • And finally, keep your shit updated.





  • The issue is that easily unlockable bootloaders exist, it’s just that they exist on [Shady Company] Pixels. So you either move on to a privacy focused OS and lose a bunch of basic ass features because [Shady Company] slowly removed them from the main OS, or you end up using the least privacy focused device ever made in the history of humanity. So if you’re just in it for the basics, iOS is the way to go. I’m telling you this as someone who has been rooting, buying and selling Android devices for about 9 years.

    The internet is forever and there is no privacy on the internet.
