1.) All websites which are added under "Paypal alternatives" track and fingerprinting you.
2.) Some of them are wrongly added in HOSTS filter lists (like in my case Square was blocked, this is a false positive)
3.) Most if not all blocking VPN's (GeoIP) (same like PayPal)
4.) I only consider Monero as best crypto alternative
5.) Donation based systems are mostly to 99% depending on BitCoin or PayPal, I only added Liberapay (PayPal) as reference.
If you have better alternatives please do a pull request I'm searching for years for alternatives since Paypal basically gives everyone your data: https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/ua/third-parties-list
My recommendations:
- Monero
- Klarna
- LibrePay
... and that's already it. But as said I don't know every service.... Maybe I overlooked one.... which works in the US as well as in the EU.
Overview:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecosia
Nutshell:
- Bing based search engine without tracking
- Non-profit
- Based in Germany (Berlin)
- Less CAPTCHA bullshit (compared to SearX)
semi-tethered = You need to re-apply the jailbreak after a reboot.
The tool is currently for MacOS but it's promised that a Windows and Linux version comes soon.
- Added wi.to to "Music"
- Added "Sky" to it's own category
- Added "Xtream Codes", they won the copyright fight (the app is now back again in Google's Play Store)
- Moonwalk.cc down
Added:
- Added Nitter as secure Twitter alternative
- ipwndfu (iOS exploit/tool), see here for more info: https://nitter.net/axi0mX/status/1177542201670168576?s=20
Project is on hold now, I'll accept pull requests but the next step is to introduce the search.
- Megatools added, I did not linked to his GitHub repo because he moved (wise decision btw).
- ZippyShare.sh added (it's a duplicate because it's already listed in the scripts section) - I'm aware of it.
- Premium Link hoster updated, I added a "privacy concern" warning e.g. Mega.nz was sold to Chinese investors. While a "concern" (without any proof) is not a risk, Mega.nz stays on the list. I double-checked it since the Chinese investors took over it, there was no leak. However, there new account policy is something to criticize - sure thing.
- Plowshare added
- Leonflix
- r/TTVreborn (a place to talk about streaming apps)
- Checked the streaming apps section against: https://old.reddit.com/r/TTVreborn/comments/9xxng0/streaming_apps_official_links_how_to_use_trakt/ & added the missing ones + added the link itself because it also provides two small tutorials
- Removed Cinema (it wasn't a fake app but required to login into mobilism to get it + there is the new Cinema HD version)
- Added @piracylinks under the telegram section
- Anonembed, FilesLoop & ololo.to added into its own category "Video Streaming link search engines"
- Code of conduct mentioned under "project structure"
- Playstation section added (not only limited to PS4!). The (4) only indicates that this is the latest PS console, I'm not opening a section for PS 1, 2, etc. because there are only a handful pages which are reliable.
- MyImgur - Download/Upload imgur images
- DroidIris+ (Android only) added into image downloader section
- Tidal section added, we already have "audio" and other section but I decided to open sections for each big music streaming service because there are not really many alternatives/websites and the ones which exist are worth to be mentioned
- GomoStream has an .org URL too (abandoned/outdated), the official domain moved to .com. Make sure you (re)-check your bookmarks. It is not listed under banned because officially the .org domain is still "supported" and owned by the same owner (and not somehow altered/infected etc).
- Chegg added (academic papers), it's not entirely free (mostly paid) but offers a trial so you can create multiple accounts and get academic paper, school material, more or less for free.
- Footybite, Football streaming (no sign-up is required)
- Siptveu added, football / IPTV streaming
- PIPTV (IPTV) phython script added, it normally belongs to the tools section but the IPTV overall is a mess and I'll clean it among with other things (streaming section is a mess too)
- MachineGunnur/GOG-Games - link added
- Swiss Copyright Law: Downloading Stays Legal, No Site Blocking (torrentfreak) link added
- Fake generator section added (privacy protection, be careful some of such websites "track" you or doing the opposite by stealing your identity)
- Renamed "Archives to "Piracy archives"
About GOG Games (mirrors/releases e.g. MachineGunnur) & harassment (no rant - just my point of view)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stop harassing people, let people alone which are only trying to help. That dude (MachineGunnur) closed his support issue ticket on GitHub because of spam/trolls - according to his latest comment (as of yesterday) people even trolled him on his Tox channel - Just stop it, how bored must one individual be to troll and waste his freak'n lifetime just to prevent that someone uploads GOG mirror files?! Seriously, that's not cool. I usually don't comment on such things but abusing channels/platforms like GitHub just to show how stupid you are is nothing but a waste of all our spare lifetime. I have no respect for trolls/idiots or people which waste all our time for nothing, I report such people immediately (yes, call be a dick on this) because such people are on the wrong platform, GitHub or GitLab is not the place to harass or bully certain people. Feel free to spam in my Discord, I even give you your own room for this ... Jesus. This "Kindergarten", reminds be on the early 90s, just because some trolls want to "prevent" something. You simply can't, if someone wants to help, just let him and if you dislike it, ignore it and don't start a drama.
@MachineGunnur keep up your good work and ignore those trolls. :)
We ensure that (in case you come from another website like GitHub, CornHub & Co) the links you clicked here are "obfuscated" (I know it's the wrong word for it). This basically prevents third-parties and first-parties to back-track your site you came from. Theoretically this also answers the liability questions for the links here on this repository because the provider is responsible and if we "give" another provider the real link then he is responsible for the content. However, I'm not sure if that is the case here because github explicitly looks for https://.
There are also browser extensions to do that and some Browsers like Brave or Firefox (with some config tweaks) can do this without any extensions, but since I don't want to force anyone to install an extension or to enable blocking the referrer by default.
What is a soft ban?
- The removed websites with an insecure protocol are now listed under banned.md, however if the webmaster/owner decides to upgrade the website to a secure and better standard then I'm going to re-list them on the Overview page.
Why are some pages (which are insecure) marked/tagged with `insecure`?
- Some very popular websites are insecure, however they are not been removed for several reasons e.g. popularity, search reasons etc.
Website with "beta" https://?
Some websites can be reached via HTTPS-Everywhere & Co. to "upgrade" (redirect) the website to https://, however if the website does not naively support HTTPS by default then it's considerable a "beta" redirection which is not been tolerated. No one should be forced to use extensions/scripts/filters to reach a secure website. Welcome to 2019.
Minimum website standard?
TLS 2.0+. According to several stats pages only <5% of all encrypted pages using an outdated TLS version 1.0/1.1/1.2 etc. So welcome in Russia my friends... Just update your standard. It's not hard, if you can't do it then why should we trust your page/content?!
Why does it matter if the website only lists/links to other secure providers e.g. zippyshare (sharehoster) etc.?!
The reason is that Warez pages are been actively monitored and indexed, the risk is high that those pages are somehow compromised (XSS, MITM, etc) in order to find out who is going to click on link x or simply to track you down.
Wrong assumption (?)
I do not support or vouch for any https site here, but in my point of view in 2019 every freak'n page should be at least be in TLS 2.0 (or higher). I doubt every website owner/site or hoster which is not capable of providing a secure website/content, especially if it comes to Warez.
