stubby VS privacytools.io

Let's use patchelf to reduce the Docker image size for Stubby — a name resolver that supports DNS-over-TLS. We will use Debian as the base image but the process is specific neither to this Linux distribution nor to this application.

U used Stubby for a while, that worked but I've since switched to Unbound.

Overall, while DoT, DoH, and DNSCrypt are all far better than nothing in terms of privacy and security, I would say that DoH is probably the simplest and most effective choice for the average user, while DNSCrypt (or DoT with a flexible client like Stubby) are preferable for users who desire more robust configuration options, or have niche use cases. I tend toward DoH for devices that frequently travel with me, and DNSCrypt or DoT for devices that rarely leave my home.

For encrypted DNS, I suggest you to install Stubby. It can be used along with a VPN. The Arch wiki is very good as well as the official website to explain how to install it. But the best tutorial is from LinuxBabe.

You can also use any of three different encryption methods (DoT, DoH, or DNScrypt) to encrypt your query when you send it to us (look at Stubby as an example of how to do that).

FYI, Privacy Guides is a shitshow. It was formerly privacytools.io[1], and in 2019, the creator[2] of privacytools.io stopped contributing[3] and a new contributor[4] immediately focused on donations[5], became the admin[6] and took control[7] of most assets, including donations but excluding the domain and Twitter account[8]. In 2021, the creator of privacytools.io launched a new privacytools.io[9] and added affiliate links[10], and the Privacy Guides team shut down r/privacytoolsIO rather than return it[11] to the creator. Like I said, a shitshow.

Yes, we know you're still mad we won't add Threema. It was thoroughly discussed in our old organization.

en 2019: Signal has copious privacy issues making it unfit for privacytools.io endorsement.

Signal is just another walled garden and has a lot of other problems too: https://github.com/privacytools/privacytools.io/issues/779

Or the fork which is much more active these days https://docs.searxng.org/

Never heard of it. Fastmail apparently never made it on to the privacytools.io list for its geographical location. See here for some other recommendations. There are also malifence and posteo. I use posteo and mailbox.org. The main two weird things about posteo is that there is no spam folder (detected spam is rejected with no option to change this), and you can't use a custom domain (because they don't want to have any information on you/your name). Mailbox.org can optionally reject spam and lets you use your custom domain. I like it a lot so far.

Worth noting the "admins" of that site wrote the content for it, check for yourself https://github.com/privacytools/privacytools.io/commits/master BurungHantu hadn't written anything really since 2016.
