In today's video, I decided to take a look at some tools and applications you can use to improve your #privacy and #security on #linux

From internet connection monitoring tools, system wide ad and tracker blockers, sandboxing tools, or permission control apps, to file shredders, and encryption, I think it should help expand your Linux toolbox, with #OpenSource tools to keep control on what your system and apps can do!

many thanks for the video!

I still dont like ecryptfs, first of all you can attack the key if you have a file stored on it and you have the cleartext portion of it. Secondly they once had a bug open for at least 4 years where you could read out an unsalted checksum of your password as regular user, add a bit of computing power and boom!
