By default, the ‘disable-publishing’ parameter in the [publish] section of avahi-daemon.conf is set to ‘no’, which can be seen in my opinion as a privacy issue as avahi broadcasts the hostname without the user’s consent even though this has been explicitly disabled in the settings of networkmanager.

As per a recent discovery, we should check if our deepin is affected by the CNZZ spyware in the AppStore.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v25Dy66AtNI

We also shouldn’t use the AppStore if it exists, due to non-free apps.

Known files:

As per a user report (https://forums.hyperbola.info/viewtopic.php?id=92), DDG is USA based search engine and is blocking Tor users (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/23648).
They are also using non-free JS on the default search.

It seems the best way to solve this is to use their “html” hidden service since it conceals the user IP, doesn’t block Tor users by default, and doesn’t need JS. https://3g2upl4pq6kufc4m.onion/html/

This will affect multiple applications that are currently using DuckDuckGo. The alternative is to remove it completely, but it still is a better option than Google et. all for privacy...

Description:

community/purple-facebook 0.9.3-1
    Facebook protocol plugin for libpurple

It is up to maintainers to decide of course. IMHO I would remove this one as it uses proprietary network Facebook, exclusively, and even mentioning the word in the package.

See:
https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html

A free system distribution must not steer users towards obtaining any nonfree information for practical use, or encourage them to do so.

purple-plugin-pack provides access to Napster which is only useful with a single company and sever (as far as I could tell).

According to their documentation:

In order to use LuaDNS service you’ll need a LuaDNS account and a Git repository.

Currently we are supporting the following Git hosting services:
> GitHub
> Bitbucket

GitHub, as everybody knows, was acquired by Microsoft last year (2018)
https://news.microsoft.com/2018/06/04/microsoft-to-acquire-github-for-7-5-billion/

And Bitbucket, like GitHub, is a centralized non-free git service.

There are other packages made for GitHub which haven’t been removed, but as you were deleting the certbot-dns-* packages that depended on a US-based DNS provider company, I thought you may wanted to know this.

We should check if the following packages run any non-free JS (like youtube-dl) or access a proprietary API:

- hub
- python-pygithub
- python2-pygithub

I haven’t check them, but they look fishy. Take it as a reminder, this is far from being urgent IMO.

The current version of BleachBit needs to be adapted so it can clean the new .cache/hyperbola/ directory.

Hi André, you could make an init for the searx search engine, it happens that
I want to launch it from local to avoid being in searx.me or
searx.riseup.net.

I have seen that there is a PKGBUILD in AUR [0]. I think it is necessary to make one with the init Openrc

Plymouth is an application that runs very early in the boot process (even before the root filesystem is mounted!) that provides a graphical boot animation while the boot process happens in the background.

Please implement plymouth as an optional package.
