Was browsing on the GrapheneOS website and came across a new thing called WebUSB, which is essentially a JS API through which GrapheneOS web installer worked.
This got me wondering, if website could read what’s plugged into my computer like my phone or disks, isn’t that a huge risk to privacy? I don’t know how this works (haven’t used it) so I would like to know about its privacy.
AFAIK Firefox doesn’t allow this API, so that’s a relief (I use librefox), but what about other browsers? I am getting a bit paranoid.
[Also, are there other APIs like these; which are a privacy nightmare that websites could use?]
How van you do that? Im using fedora and Android om phone.
I manually set the ntp server of my device to match with the location of my VPN server and use an pp to see the time of my real location.
Im a noob, where to find NTP server and what is pp? I’m using fedora🙂
You don’t need to change your ntp server exactly you can just set the time zone settings of your device (android)to match the same region of your VPN server. if you want to go a step further you have the option (not mandatorily) to change the NTP server of your device.
Okay. Thank you. I’m learning everyday 😄
