How can I get access to my connect.mozilla.org account back? (lemmy.world)
 

I changed emails on my Mozilla account, and then trying to log in again with it, it prompted me to create a new account. I made a Firefox support post 2 weeks ago but got no responses.

What should I do when I see headlines about personal data getting breached? How do I keep such info off the internet? in c/[email protected]

Can you kindly tell me the difference between a leak and a breach?

Like when I read 3 Billion National Public Data Records with SSNs, Addresses Dumped Online, am I supposed to access that data dump or something to see if I got pwned? Are there equivalents to haveibeenpwned.com for this type of stuff? Any guides on what to do when these happen? I feel like I'm doomscrolling or watching the news, and feeling depressed about the world as a result because I should be doing something but I can't or it seems like I can't.

Even though I know better than to put such personal info online, but that doesn't eliminate the odds of them getting into breaches like these, and having started to be careful about digital privacy has opened my eyes to the sad state of privacy.

That seems to only be available for Android.

I just learned about The Work Number, what are other methods of employee, medical, or financial data collection can I opt out of? in c/[email protected]

Did Obama do anything relating to this?

I tried looking for lists but didn't find any.

The Work Number is US-specific and where your employers input your salary data for future employers to see. You can opt out here: https://employees.theworknumber.com/employee-data-freeze/.

If you use Simplelogin with your iCloud email, how has your mileage been? in c/[email protected]

No I did end up changing my studentaid email to an SL alias, though I might wanna change it back if it keeps having issues. The issue is that icloud bounced the email, and SimpleLogin itself gave me an email each time one got bounced, with to go to simplelogin.com and see the bounced email. This is the title for each one

An email sent to your alias redacted@simplelogin.com from [email protected] was bounced by your mailbox redacted@icloud.com

Can this app work without a server, like just log my location on-device?

I want an app that can track it automatically, and without having to open it to do so, Google maps on iOS does so. You can allow apps to always access your location to do so.

Monorepo of all Pocket App Typescript Backend Sevices in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I guess there are still users for it.

Personally I moved on from it 4 years ago since I was using it for bookmarking and raindrop.io is designed for that and much better, though I've been planning on switching to something self-hosted.

I think Omnivore is a much better read it later app now.
