[gentoo-user] [OT] Being Facebook member: How to anon?
Hi, for its invasive nature and its data gathering I really dont like facebook. And now it seems that I cant with out it: There is a HUGE user group for the Creality CR-10 3D printer there and veryone and everything is referencing it. My question is: Are there ways (and which ones) to become member of facebook just to read and write to this user grout (like a mailinglist) and keep the impact on privacy an personal fingerprinting as small as ever possible? Every help is very appreciated! Cheers Meino

Yes, I've just tried setting up Claws to connect to y Zen account and it just worked. Then I looked at your screenshot and see you are using a different host.

I deleted ~/.claws-mail and the mail folder and started again. It worked for me too this time - Just Like That (tm). I'm using claws now. The next thing is to work out how to use filters. Thanks Neil. -- Regards, Peter.

The latter. Unless you are seriously paranoid and the NSA really is out to get you, then use the former and more. But in that case you have much bigger problems than wondering if the spammers will find you from facebook -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com

I think I get where Joost is coming from. Another thought, what about using Tor to make it so it can't track IPs as well? Joost, you have a thought on that? Also, I've read where some people have had to prove who they are. Facebook requests the info and if it is not provided, they suspend the account until it is provided. It's never happened to me but I've talked to people who it did happen too. How does one get around it if that happens? Dale :-) :-)

The network performance is too slow to be usable for something like Facebook. -- Joost -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

If you run it from a seperate account (ssh -Y facebookuser@localhost ) you can stay with firefox. Just keep that one for facebook only. -- Joost -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.

Look at actions too, I do most of my filtering server side, but I couldn't do without Actions. -- Neil Bothwick Don't put all your hypes in one home page. pgpnbnirobeTH.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature
