Privacy matters! But what if the tools meant to protect us are being misused? Our latest study (to appear ARES '24) reveals surprising facts about HTTP Client Hints (HTTP CHs) on the Web. [THREAD]
Nawet po wprowadzeniu synchronizacji zakładek w wersji mobilnej brakuje tej przeglądarce podstawowych funkcjonalności. Nawet wtyczki nie pomagają niestety. Co z tego, że jest ta synchronizacja, skoro jak coś otworzę na telefonie, to nie ma tego na laptopie? W Safari jest!
‘British newspaper groups have warned #Apple that any move to impose a so-called “web eraser” tool to block advertisements would put the financial sustainability of journalism at risk.
‘Apple is preparing to include an AI-based #privacy feature in the #Safari browser in the next #iOS 18 software update that will remove ads or other unwanted website content, according to reports.’ https://on.ft.com/4be4E5Y
My partner has just asked me the magic words I've never thought I'd hear in the years we've been together: "How do I set #Firefox as my default browser?". Bye #Safari and thank you <3
Bit of an odd one, but can any other #macOS#Safari users confirm the following behaviour?
If you pin a tab in a regular personal tab group, the tab will shrink to a small square, but if you pin a tab in a named tab group it’ll stay the same size as the others.
If this is expected behaviour, why?
I’ve tried with a Personal and a Work window, and it happens across both.
The Arte Museum in Dubai has an interactive exhibition that brings sketches to life. Visitor’s drawings are fed into a machine that digitizes them and animates them in a room-sized digital safari. They also fill the room with the scent of wet soil to amplify the experience.
I don't like that #Firefox has "Developer Edition" it only increases the bar for people to experiment.
For me, browsers have been the last bastion of hackability in the modern app ecosystem. I understand why Google #Chrome and Apple #Safari don't want people to make all kinds of extensions.
Firefox is the underdog at the moment, they should:
Aim to make the out-of-the-box experience familiar,
Be customizable so people can build wild ideas like Arc Browser is doing as an extension.
#EU#Cybersecurity#Antitrust#Apple#Safari: "Apple's grudging accommodation of European antitrust rules by allowing third-party app stores on iPhones has left users of its Safari browser exposed to potential web activity tracking.
Developers Talal Haj Bakry and Tommy Mysk looked into the way Apple implemented the installation process for third-party software marketplaces on iOS with Safari, and concluded Cupertino's approach is particularly shoddy.
"Our testing shows that Apple delivered this feature with catastrophic security and privacy flaws," wrote Bakry and Mysk in an advisory published over the weekend.
Apple – which advertises Safari as "incredibly private" – evidently has undermined privacy among European Union Safari users through a marketplace-kit: URI scheme that potentially allows approved third-party app stores to follow those users around the web."
In light of the EU's DMA and Apple's implementation of their Browser Choice screens, our CEO and Co-Founder, Jon von Tetzchner @jon, talks to @WIRED.
"It starts from you clicking Safari. Which, I think all of us agree, that's the wrong spot." Jon said he prefers Google's implementation of its new browser choice screen that guides Android users to select a default while setting up their phone.
Apple's implementation of installing marketplace apps from #Safari is heavily flawed and can allow a malicious marketplace to track #EU users across websites, even in private browsing mode. This blog details our findings:
The connection IS private. There IS certificate, and it IS valid. It's just self signed. Also, how could IP X be stealing data from IP X when THEY'RE THE SAME IP⁉️
Bonus. It doesn't matter how many times I tell it to "Always Trust" the certificate it REFUSES to remember AND it doesn't appear in Keychain Access.
just ARRRGH!
Every time i spend more than 5 minutes in Safari i come away wanting to yell at people.
