Mullvad VPN: Introducing Defense against AI-guided Traffic Analysis (DAITA) (mullvad.net)

Even if you have encrypted your traffic with a VPN (or the Tor Network), advanced traffic analysis is a growing threat against your privacy. Therefore, we now introduce DAITA.

Through constant packet sizes, random background traffic and data pattern distortion we are taking the first step in our battle against sophisticated traffic analysis.

I “blocked” hexbear, because a mod didn’t take the time to use their brain, labeled me a “pedophile apologist” and banned me from the entire instance. If they moderate based on “I don’t care what actually happened, I’m mad” then I’m not going to bother interacting with them.

Hexbear mods are paid to spread propaganda, not use their brain, two fairly exclusive activities.

And that's the problem from both sides. You both need to continue talking. I got banned from Reddit subs too for literally asking questions or wrong think.

People need to grow skin

I literally can’t. Even when an interaction would have happened outside of hexbear, their users can’t see my messages.

My blocking them was just to prevent me from seeing content I couldn’t interact with.

Being blocked and censured under false pretenses is not a "both sides problem" lol.

Yeah it is.
