I really disappointed with Boxcryptor and Dropbox

Thu, 22 Dec 2022 17:36:13 +0800

I have been using boxcryptor almost 2 years and I really like it because of some features like:

It is free for personal use
It is cross platform (Windows, Android)
It is easy to use (setup, backup, restore, manage, update)
It is easy to sync / share (with some limitation for personal use plan)
It is easy to encrypt / decrypt

I use boxcryptor to encrypt my Onedrive folder and I really like it. It encrypts my files and folders one bye one per file(s) without need to scramble files like how crytomator works.

Delete / purge data from 3rd party social media periodically

Wed, 25 Aug 2021 08:51:32 +0800

Have you ever thought about deleting your old content? Especially on centralize social media such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and many more.. which we are well aware that they will track, analyze and use your metadata and content for a certain purpose that only benefit for them self.

Social network is not likely same as when you start register on they website. This is what you should expect anyway. They put you on free trial mode and let you lurk around and catch you connection, likes, post and more. After a certain period, you won’t notice they does not care much about us connecting with friends, it just want us to consume content as much as possible on their platform - while generating ad revenue. No matter what social media you use, they want you to be addict to they social network.

Privacy and Free Speech (Edward Snowden)

Arguing that you don’t care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say
