Updated Personal Infosec Post

Been awhile since I've had one of these posts part deus: but I figure with all that's going on in the world it's time to make another one and get some stuff out there for people. A lot of the information I'm going to go over you can find here:

https://www.privacyguides.org/en/tools/

So if you'd like to just click the link and ignore the rest of the post that's fine, I strongly recommend checking out the Privacy Guides. Browsers: There's a number to go with but for this post going forward I'm going to recommend Firefox. I know that the Privacy Guides lists Brave and Safari as possible options but Brave is Chrome based now and Safari has ties to Apple. Mullvad is also an option but that's for your more experienced users so I'll leave that up to them to work out. Browser Extensions:

uBlock Origin: content blocker that blocks ads, trackers, and fingerprinting scripts. Notable for being the only ad blocker that still works on Youtube.

Privacy Badger: Content blocker that specifically blocks trackers and fingerprinting scripts. This one will catch things that uBlock doesn't catch but does not work for ads.

Facebook Container: "but I don't have facebook" you might say. Doesn't matter, Meta/Facebook still has trackers out there in EVERYTHING and this containerizes them off away from everything else.

Bitwarden: Password vaulting software, don't trust the password saving features of your browsers, this has multiple layers of security to prevent your passwords from being stolen.

ClearURLs: Allows you to copy and paste URL's without any trackers attached to them.

VPN: Note: VPN software doesn't make you anonymous, no matter what your favorite youtuber tells you, but it does make it harder for your data to be tracked and it makes it less open for whatever public network you're presently connected to.

Mozilla VPN: If you get the annual subscription it's ~$60/year and it comes with an extension that you can install into Firefox.

Mullvad VPN: Is a fast and inexpensive VPN with a serious focus on transparency and security. They have been in operation since 2009. Mullvad is based in Sweden and offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for payment methods that allow it.

Email Provider: Note: By now you've probably realized that Gmail, Outlook, and basically all of the major "free" e-mail service providers are scraping your e-mail data to use for ad data. There are more secure services that can get you away from that but if you'd like the same storage levels you have on Gmail/Ol utlook.com you'll need to pay.

Tuta: Secure, end-to-end encrypted, been around a very long time, and offers a free option up to 1gb.

Mailbox.org: Is an email service with a focus on being secure, ad-free, and privately powered by 100% eco-friendly energy. They have been in operation since 2014. Mailbox.org is based in Berlin, Germany. Accounts start with up to 2GB storage, which can be upgraded as needed.

Email Client:

Thunderbird: a free, open-source, cross-platform email, newsgroup, news feed, and chat (XMPP, IRC, Matrix) client developed by the Thunderbird community, and previously by the Mozilla Foundation.

FairMail (Android Only): minimal, open-source email app which uses open standards (IMAP, SMTP, OpenPGP), has several out of the box privacy features, and minimizes data and battery usage.

Cloud Storage:

Tresorit: Encrypted cloud storage owned by the national postal service of Switzerland. Received MULTIPLE awards for their security stats.

Peergos: decentralized and open-source, allows for you to set up your own cloud storage, but will require a certain level of expertise.

Microsoft Office Replacements:

LibreOffice: free and open-source, updates regularly, and has the majority of the same functions as base level Microsoft Office.

OnlyOffice: cloud-based, free

FreeOffice: Personal licenses are free, probably the closest to a fully office suite replacement.

Chat Clients: Note: As you've heard SMS and even WhatsApp and some other popular chat clients are basically open season right now. These are a couple of options to replace those. Note2: Signal has had some reports of security flaws, the service it was built on was originally built for the US Government, and it is based within the CONUS thus is susceptible to US subpoenas. Take that as you will.

Signal: Provides IM and calling securely and encrypted, has multiple layers of data hardening to prevent intrusion and exfil of data.

Molly (Android OS only): Alternative client to Signal. Routes communications through the TOR Network.

Briar: Encrypted IM client that connects to other clients through the TOR Network, can also chat via wifi or bluetooth.

SimpleX: Truly anonymous account creation, fully encrypted end to end, available for Android and iOS.

Now for the last bit, I know that the majority of people are on Windows or macOS, but if you can get on Linux I would strongly recommend it. pop_OS, Ubuntu, and Mint are super easy distros to use and install. They all have very easy to follow instructions on how to install them on your PC and if you'd like to just test them out all you need is a thumb drive to boot off of to run in demo mode. For more secure distributions for the more advanced users the options are: Whonix, Tails (Live USB only), and Qubes OS.

On a personal note I use Arch Linux, but I WOULD NOT recommend this be anyone's first distro as it requires at least a base level understanding of Linux and liberal use of the Arch Linux Wiki. If you game through Steam their Proton emulator in compatibility mode works wonders, I'm presently playing a major studio game that released in 2024 with no Linux support on it and once I got my drivers installed it's looked great. There are some learning curves to get around, but the benefit of the Linux community is that there's always people out there willing to help. I hope some of this information helps you and look out for yourself, it's starting to look scarier than normal out there.

Taking another look at Mastodon

I talked a bit about Mastodon last year, right as the big migration from Twitter was underway. There's a lot that has changed since then, including some of my own opinions.

First, I'm getting the definitions out of the way. Mastodon is an open-source and federated social media network. "Federated" means it's made up of a bunch of independent but interconnected servers. Those servers use a protocol called ActivityPub to talk to each other, like how Gmail and Yahoo can send and receive emails between each other with IMAP. Other social media platforms use ActivityPub too, like PixelFed, which are collectively referred to as "the Fediverse."

According to FediDB, a service set up by PixelFed developer Daniel Supernault (dansup), there are somewhere around 7.5 million Mastodon accounts spread across over 12,000 servers. Roughly 1.2 million of those accounts are active users (have posted in the past month), which is down slightly from the start of the year. The last peak was in February 2023, when the platform was around 1.68 million active users.

That's only part of the puzzle, though. Other software like Misskey, PeerTube, Calckey, and PixelFed are part of the same larger Fediverse network, adding more users into the mix.

The most significant event this year so far for Mastodon and other Fediverse platforms has been Reddit's collapse, as it pushed through similar API lockdowns as Twitter. Reddit isn't quite as terrible as Twitter yet, but Reddit's CEO continuously saying the dumbest shit possible is not helping. Several Reddit communities are migrating to Lemmy and Kbin, both of which support ActivityPub, which means they are intercompatible with Mastodon and other Fediverse software.

If we look at FediDB again, Lemmy and Kbin are getting close to 100,000 active users, an increase of roughly 10x since the start of the month. That's pretty remarkable, especially considering both projects are far less mature than Mastodon and options for mobile apps are limited. It remains to be seen if we'll see Reddit app developers embrace these new platforms in the same way that some popular Twitter client developers did -- the only example I've seen so far is the Sync for Reddit developer working on a Lemmy client.

The next big event will likely be the launch of Meta's Twitter clone, which will probably be called "Threads," and is expected to use ActivityPub at some point. Whenever that happens, Meta's service will probably very quickly become the top server in the Fediverse ecosystem. Most of the responses to this have been in one of three camps: "this is a good thing because the Fediverse will have more users", "we should be cautious about this", and "Meta will ruin everything we've built and we're blocking them."

To be clear, that last option is usually referring to defederation: when a Mastodon/Fediverse server completely blocks all communication with a specific other server. If you're following someone on a server, and your admin defederates the server, you don't follow them anymore and can't re-follow them. This is a pretty frequent action with servers hosting illegal content or no user moderation. When the far-right social media platform Gab introduced ActivityPub support, pretty much every Mastodon server defederated with it.

I don't really know where I stand on defederating Meta's service, because we don't have all the details yet, but I can understand where people are coming from with an outright block. The Fediverse is full of people who have been pushed away or suddenly banned from Meta-owned platforms or other big social networks (LGBTQ+ people, journalists, sex workers, etc.), and those companies generally have moderation policies that are farther to the right of most Mastodon servers. It's not difficult to see a reality where user reports about posts and users on Meta's server might overwhelm Mastodon moderators, who then simply ban Meta's server instead of continuing to deal with its users. Meta also now officially allows COVID-19 misinformation, and isn't pushing back on election interference lies.

The discourse around Meta's platform, some other Fediverse drama, and the continued onboarding issues with Mastodon do make me think that Mastodon and other Fediverse platforms probably won't ever "go mainstream," which seemed more likely to me at the end of last year. There's a lot of people who completely zone out when you have to explain how servers work, or why you can't favorite a post without copying and pasting a link, or something else like that. I do still think a lot of the people raising those points are being disingenuous, and they aren't entirely the fault of the projects (you're working against years of learned behavior about centralized platforms), but that doesn't make them invalid.

However, I do think Mastodon and other Fediverse platforms are now set up for long-term success. The big migration from Twitter gave it more name recognition, a lot more apps, and support from mainstream social media tools like Buffer and WordPress Jetpack. If I'm a big company, organization, or news site, it's now so much easier to maintain a presence on Mastodon (and thus, the rest of the Fediverse) than it was a year ago. With tools like Buffer, Mastodon is just another button you click, right next to the Twitter and Facebook buttons. That's huge.

Right now, the Fediverse is basically the desktop Linux of social media. It's not mainstream, and probably won't ever be, but it's grown enough now that it can't be completely ignored anymore. Just like the Linux userbase, the Fediverse community leans more towards tech people, but there are also a lot of guys, gals, and non-binary pals on Mastodon who have other interests and are there because they just like the experience.

I'll miss the Twitter of the past, and I will miss a few very specific and small parts of Reddit, but it's so exciting to watch Mastodon and other federated social media adapt to the failure of centralized platforms. There's still a lot more work to be done, but if Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook are any indication, "going mainstream" isn't the right goal.

Effective Strategies for Monitoring Your Gmail Messages Without Hassle Gmail is a powerful tool, and one of its advantages is the ability to monitor the flow of messages without the need for complex external programs. If you want to monitor your messages for security, productivity, or curiosity, there are several strategies you can easily implement.

One of the most effective is to use automatic labels and filters. You can configure them so that all emails that meet certain criteria—such as sender, subject, or keywords—are automatically flagged, archived, or forwarded. This allows you to follow specific conversations or topics more easily.

Another way to monitor them is to enable automatic forwarding to another account. From Gmail settings, in the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" section, you can add another address that will receive a copy of each incoming message onlyfans. This feature is useful if you want to read emails from different accounts or share them with someone else.

You can also use the advanced search feature to review old messages by date, size, recipient, or specific keywords. This helps you keep a more detailed track without wasting time checking email after email.

For those looking for more specific statistics, there are tools like Clean Email or Gmelius, which offer analysis of your email habits, peak activity times, and alerts when there are unanswered messages. Although some of these features require a fee, they also offer free versions with basic monitoring options.

Don't forget to periodically review your Google account's security activity. There you can see which devices have logged in and what changes have been made. If you detect any activity you don't recognize, it's important to change your password immediately.

Gmail offers many ways to actively monitor your inbox. With a little organization and the right tools, you can monitor your messages and protect your information effectively and easily.

Free Methods to Convert OLM Files to PST for MS Outlook in Easy Steps

Method 1: Manual Export Using an IMAP Account

This method requires configuring an IMAP account, such as Gmail, to act as an intermediary between Mac Outlook (OLM) and Windows Outlook (PST).

Step-by-Step Process:

Set Up an IMAP Account:

Open Gmail, go to Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP, and enable IMAP.

Open Mac Outlook, navigate to Outlook > Preferences > Accounts.

Add a new account by entering the IMAP account credentials.

Synchronize OLM Data with IMAP:

Create a new folder within the IMAP account in Mac Outlook.

Drag and drop your emails from Mac Outlook to this IMAP folder to start syncing.

Access Data from Windows Outlook:

After the sync is complete, open Windows Outlook.

Add the same IMAP account to Windows Outlook. You should now see all your emails synced.

Move emails from the IMAP folder to a new PST file by navigating to File > Open & Export > Import/Export and selecting Export to a file.

Method 2: Export Methods Using Microsoft 365

If you have a Microsoft 365 subscription, you can use it to transfer emails between Mac Outlook and Windows Outlook.

Steps to Follow:

Configure Mac Outlook with Microsoft 365:

Open Mac Outlook and set up Microsoft 365 as a new account under Preferences > Accounts.

Drag and drop OLM data into the Microsoft 365 mailbox.

Access Data on Windows Outlook:

Log into your Microsoft 365 account in Windows Outlook. All OLM data should now be available in the Microsoft 365 mailbox.

Copy these emails to a PST file in Windows Outlook to complete the conversion.

Method 3: Exporting via Apple Mail and Importing to Windows Outlook

To migrate Apple Mail to Windows Outlook, first export emails from Apple Mail as MBOX files. Then, use an MBOX to PST converter to convert the files.

This method is more involved and ideal if you need to convert only a few emails or folders.

Instructions:

Export Emails from Mac Outlook: Open Mac Outlook, select the emails or folders you want to export, and export them to .mbox format.

Import MBOX to Apple Mail: Open Apple Mail, go to File > Import Mailboxes, and select the MBOX file. This will load your Mac Outlook emails in Apple Mail.

Use EML Format to Save Emails: Drag each email from Apple Mail to a new folder to save them as .eml files.

Import EML Files into Windows Outlook: Open Windows Outlook, and use a third-party tool to import EML files into PST format, as Outlook does not natively support EML to PST conversion.

Method 4: Using an OLM to PST Converter Tool

Many professional OLM to PST converter tools offer free demo versions, which can be used to convert a limited number of emails or files.

Download a Free OLM to PST Converter: I have explain some best OLM to PST converter tool that offers a demo version (e.g., SysVita OLM to PST Converter, ATS OLM To PST Converter & Vartika OLM to PST Converter).

Select the Destination Folder:

Specify where you’d like the converted PST file to be saved on your system.

Begin the Conversion Process:

Click Convert or Export to start the process. The time required will depend on the size of the OLM file and the speed of your system.

Open the Converted PST File in Windows Outlook:

Once conversion is complete, open Microsoft Outlook on your Windows system.

Go to File > Open & Export > Open Outlook Data File, locate your newly converted PST file, and import it.

Conclusion

Converting OLM to PST manually can be a time-consuming process, especially for larger files. While free methods are available, they require multiple steps and some technical knowledge. If you regularly need to convert OLM files to PST, investing in a professional OLM to PST converter might be worth considering for a seamless experience.

Several days later, all 20 years of emails — 117,006 messages at 11 gb — have been imported to iCloud. After setting up mail forwarding, I no longer need to keep Gmail in Mail via IMAP because it’s all searchable. Delayed retrieval is also solved by forwarding. Perhaps the most boring post ever.

1877(698)-1665- How do I fix my Gmail not receiving emails? 

Gmail is one of those things that almost everyone has in common; Whether you use a Mac, PC, iPhone, or Android, work from home, or go to a corporate office, there's a good chance you have at least one Gmail account. And that means you almost certainly encountered some kind of glitch that caused Gmail to not work properly.

There are many possible reasons why Gmail might have stopped your morning email check, but the good news is that there are some simple things you can do to reduce the problem and get you back up and running.

How to fix Gmail not receiving emails?

Are you connected to the internet?

Anything in the junk folder?

Is it in the trash?

Check all mail

How’s your storage limit?

Go over your filter settings

Check email forwarding

Is Google down?

Send a test email to yourself

Are you using an email client?

Check POP/IMAP

Change browser or device

Gmail update?

Try logging out and logging back in

Let’s do that together:

How to Fix It When Gmail Isn't Working on Android

Follow these steps in the order below, starting with the easiest and most relevant solutions first 1877(698)-1665.

Close and reopen Gmail

If Gmail isn't working, often all you need to do is simply close your Gmail instance and reopen it. If you're in a web browser, close it, reopen it, and return to the Gmail website. If you are on a mobile device, close the app and restart it.

Try Gmail in another browser

The next easiest way to fix the problem is to try Gmail in another browser. If you usually use Chrome, for example, open Gmail in Firefox and see if it works there. If so, figuring out why it's not working in Chrome may be something you'll have to figure out another time, but at least you'll be able to get on with your day. Likewise, if it doesn't work on the mobile app, switch to a browser and see if you have a better experience there.

Check if Gmail is down

The problem may not be with your computer or browser, but rather the Gmail service may be offline. To find out, you can check Gmail's network status on Downdetector or search for "Is Gmail down" in a Google search? If there is a service interruption, you will need to wait for it to be resolved.

You might run into some issues with Gmail if you also run out of storage space on your Google Drive account, since Google Drive is where your Gmail is stored. Check if you are running out of space and free up space if necessary.

Make sure you have a solid internet connection

This may seem obvious, but also make sure you have a reliable internet connection, whether via WiFi or cellular. For example, your home Internet connection may be disconnected, but the WiFi is still strong. Your mobile device may be trying to connect via WiFi, but no data is being transmitted. To check, see if other apps or websites are not working correctly. If you're on a mobile device, you can also turn off WiFi and force your device to use a cellular signal.

Restart your computer

If you still don't succeed, turn off your device, whether it's a computer, Android phone, or iPhone, and then restart it. Then try Gmail again. Sometimes restarting your device is what is needed to fix problems in memory or with an app or browser.

Disable your browser plugins

If the problem with Gmail seems to be limited to a particular web browser, there is a good chance that you are using a browser extension or add-on that conflicts with Gmail. The good news is that it's easy to disable your extensions and see if that solves the problem. Disable all your extensions (here's how to disable extensions in Chrome) and see if that fixed the problem. If so, you can try to turn them back on, one at a time, until you find the problematic extension that conflicts with Gmail.

Clear your browser cache

Lastly, your browser's cache may also be preventing Gmail from working properly. To test this, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies. Here's how to clear the cache and cookies in Chrome, for example, and if you're using an iPhone, uninstall the Gmail app and then reinstall it from the App Store. If you are using an Android device, the steps may vary depending on the phone and version of Android you are running, but this is the general procedure:

1. Start the Settings app.

2. Tap Apps & Notifications.

3. Go to the list of apps (you might need to tap See all apps) and tap Gmail.

4. Tap Storage & cache.

5. Tap Clear cache.

Conclusion

There can be several reasons why Gmail is not receiving emails.
