Also, on covering your camera, I had always heard that the camera indicator light is connect to the camera directly, so that the camera canNOT be turned on without you knowing it. There are caveats where it is theoretically possible to hack the camera for a split second, long enough to take a photo and transmit it to a remote server or attacker's computer, such that you wouldn't recognize the brief light turning on. That does not touch on remote microphone activations. While Little Snitch, in my opinion, is tedious unless you're an IT person who specializes in macOS and its processes, I recommend MicroSnitch, from the same developer. All it does is watermark your screen when either the camera or microphone is turned on. Tje watermark goes away when the device is turned off, but it also logs each event.

I don't even use mac but the fact they have an option to not allow certain programs to fetch files honestly puts it above Windows for privacy in my eyes, I just wish there was a "done way" to find out if Mac or Windows is better for privacy. I know in Michael Bazzell's book "What it takes to disappear" he mentions that he always recommends his clients to use Mac-OS even if its not on a native mac piece of hardware (Hackintosh) I wonder if that's because of the ease of use and more programs that Mac-OS has rather then Linux or if Mac-OS really is more private then Windows.

@STNKbone 2 жыл бұрын

macOS is absolutely more private than Windows. Windows is full of telemetry, Microsoft isn't much different than Google in regards to data collection.

@methe7738 9 ай бұрын

Why not just use Linux ? Mac OS is better than windows but definitely not private bc it’s closed source their hiding some from you but w Linux you can see everything it’s doing and best part it’s all free

Improvements to an OS is less effective if the machine you use has a micro OS (see Minix & Intel/AMD management engines) running at the hardware level negating many "Improvements".

Thank you for a very informative video! I have a problem I hope you can solve: I use MacOS, when I go to sharing, ‘remote login’ is always ON. When I try to turn it off, it says (approx., since mine is in Norwegian) "Remote login is terminated..." but it is not turned off. When I close System preferences and open it again, Remote login is on again! Is this due to virus or hacking, and what should I do to turn it off?

Hi I'm looking for a method of how to essentially have 2 independent working computers from my Mac mini. I need a 2nd for trading sports events so there can't be any sort of delay as split second timing is essential. I would need this to be anonymous from my Mac mini and my IP. Can you or anyone advise please? Thank you.

3:46, do you guys think MacOS has the "security by obscurity" model? like windows has 80% usage since forever, so there are naturally more attackers on windows cause there are more fish to fry on windows and this is why Mac's don't get virus, but then there are more general users(by general i mean not tech savy) on MacOS than in windows, so attackers should also try to attack Mac"s cause it'd be more easier, right? I guess what I'm trying to ask is do Mac's really have good security or do you think that its the "security by obscurity" at play here. I personally don't think Mac's have the best security cause they don't have the firewall enabled by default (3:12).

Cleared cache via terminal (mac 10.11). Also I cannot see the previews on Opera when you search videos. Like you know when you have a bunch of videos listed? I can't see the poster or the preview. Any ideas?

Make a video on how to protect Privacy( everything single thing can be surveilled if govt wishes) in India. Freedom of speech in danger. The new IT-Rules suck! They're providing back doors to almost every single service and Big boi companies have already agreed to that(twitter is arguing tho!) Democracy is already dead in India, and now Privacy. It really hurts to see nerds who get brainwashed everytime the Govt. shouts whatever it wishes in the asses of nerds in the name of national integrity/security even if their intention is not but surveillance.
