Would there be an opt-out? Can those privacy violations be mitigated, or should we all just go back to using landlines? Where could I research this matter further?

I would guess based on aspect ratio and OS info you would definitely stick out from an already "small" crowd of tor users.

If such would be inevitable, I will not buy a new gen Android device.

Tldr: Unless your phone is running Lineage, Graphene or similar, without Google/Facebook and such spyware you do not have privacy nor security.

The long explanation is that it depends on the phone and what operating system is running, a stock Android experience is not private nor secure by design so if you're doing something that could get you in trouble with the government you will want to do such on a proper computer running Linux. On the latest and upcoming phones surveillance is gonna get worse than merely big tech getting some telemetry data and profiling shenanigans, upcoming phones will have hardware acceleration to make LLMs and AI power efficient, they definitely can and will snoop through your shit 24/7, taking screenshots or even screen recording, piping them through the algorithm and sending the digested data directly to their servers, with high accuracy and bypassing computational constraints because your phone's hardware will be doing the heavy lifting.

yea use what you're gonna be most productive with. i2p+ has a good throttle/filter system that helps a lot, not a lot of problems because of that, but like if you try to host a wordpress site here with i2pd you're gonna have a bad time

sort of fun challenge for me to try doing stuff without js, depends what you wanna do though, but get pretty far using some combination of frames refresh and cookies. http://simp.i2p/chat is jank, no doubt, but, no js needed lmao. possibly relevant to your security outfit, the chat page http://simp.i2p/botcheck attempts to do a bot challenge with css. unless you're specifically worried about bot spam that's completely unnecessary, just giving some ideas for stuff that can be done without js

lots of neat css tricks out there, like http://simp.i2p/search the styled dropdown is a checkbox, and http://gatheryourparty.i2p has a star rating on the posts but the stars are radio buttons. snex has that one setup with a ruby backend

not so familiar with those ecosystems, but think it's a little slower getting started like this but once you've got some templates it gets faster ;)

Interesting

Are you sure this JSX template not gonna generate any JS on client side? I have a doubt about it :)

i forgot to mention this in the first post but i recommended hono because you can use jsx for templating https://hono.dev/docs/guides/jsx for hosting you should deno or bun instead of node. you might get better performence

You can install i2pd over Termux, and then tweak and edit the config files using nano or vim from Termux as well so I assume adding keyrings must be trivial, you technically could even host an eepsite if you use i2pd running on top of Termux. I have no idea if the Java implementation can run over Termux as I never tried but it probably can.

After the massive embarrassment they've made of themselves releasing a desktop machine that has no modular RAM I wouldn't have much hopes on them.

Framework always seemed like a big nothingburger, they get more credit and praise than they deserve, they're not that much into right to repair (as proven with the desktop they released) and they do the bare minimum to not get in the way to make machines serviceable, a barebones laptop design with I/O modules is just the bare minimum user-serviceable-friendly thing to do. Besides these machines use the latests CPUs and tons of spooky mystery proprietary software, I wish they started talking less about mimicking consumer slop tech like smartphones and more about alternative and open hardware such as RISCV.

Seems like PHP the way for darknet. As you mention, even I am using JS blockers on my browser while surfing on darknet. I never work with C# ecosystem but I heard about Blazor. Looks fine for darknet as long as not creating any JS on client side.

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Flask also good option on backend but it's been a while I don't use python, and don't feel productive the syntax :) Thank you for sending me scanners tools tho, I will definitely gonna check it out before publishing it.

Seems like PHP + HTML + CSS still solid option for my case. I still wanna figure out how can I find a way to become more productive on PHP. I like the Laravel ecosystem but seems like most of the frontend from JS tech which is not suitable for me. I checked the symfony but seems like they are also continue with some other JS tech on frontend.

Thanks for your comment and good projects

Looks promising but looks like cloudflare backed, in documentation they showing cloudflare and other cloud providers deployment ways. If I would create something on hidden service or i2p, i probably would host myself, i mean managing on linux server with Nginx. I assume you can do it with pm2 but still not like strong way to manage. In the other hand, I didn't find any template engine like pug on node.js, maybe I couldn't find it. Thanks for writing it tho, learned a new tech on JS ecosystem :)

Waiting for Framework to launch that modular smartphone google was "making"

What's stopping you from using Tails as a basis? Making your own from scratch sounds difficult for just a simple addition

I'm guessing the best backend would be anything that does serverside rendering (SSR), like PHP. This means the HTML page is built on the server dynamically before it is sent to your web browser. Many people on the darkweb use javascript blockers so any sort of interactivity will likely be broken, so no React or whatever people use nowadays. PHP is a great choice because of how old it is and how easy it is to set up, though anything is fair game. I personally use Blazor (C#) for my website and it lets me create reusable components and easy integration with databases through EF Core

Very true, the solution is to ditch smartphones which are shit anyway and stick to standard and reliable computers running Linux or OpenBSD or whatever, if they're from 2016 or older even better.

It can run 24/7 on a ramdisk. Plus it could be convenient if you have nothing else and you want to get in touch with someone over I2P, much like Tails does with Tor for a similar purpose.

A good bonus might be to include a couple of shell scripts to automate deploying a few things as well, and even keep those maintained as stand-alone, I surely wouldn't mind using those on virtual servers and contributing to such thing to automate deploying something like an FTP server or an email server for easy and convenient data exchange and communication.

hono looks pretty interesting for building a website without client javascirpt.

Cool project, but a live OS seems a little antithetical for I2P which is supposed to run like a router (24/7)

You might spend your best years on children and get nothing but ingratitude and selfishness in return. Not always, but often enough to be a real risk — especially when parents don’t really raise their kids. And nowadays, that neglect has practically become a norm.

this qualifier is key.

You’re a distorted reflection of those who raised you and those who influenced you socially.

everybody has free will. yes, offspring can go off and become failures whether or not their family and friends and environment treated them right. more often than not, it is not the case. if your concern is the risk factor for awful parents, i agree 100%. it is incredibly easy to conceive a child, built into every human being's body. being a smart, good, decent parent? that requires work. if you go into it worrying about the risk of having a kid, but you do nothing to prepare it for life, then you have already failed. and should not be surprised when things turn out poorly.

Best way to protest it is getting more people on i2p so the network becomes better and faster, get that i2p propaganda torrent and start spreading :]

I hope we will reach a point where people fork away from android and we get something similar with Linux on desktops.

How, did you read the article, this is the whole problem with GrapheneOS it runs on Google Pixel and google wants to prevent you from running Graphene on it
