The sad thing is that this has been possible for decades using convolutional autoencoders, but with LLMs we forgot that AI architectures other than transformers still exist.
There are no advantages for WhatsApp, it just happened to exist before Signal. The only selling point is the user lock in. WhatsApp could show a 30 second ad for every sent message and let an AI crawl all your chats and it would stay the most used messenger in countries where it currently is.
People don't use WhatsApp because they like it so much, but because not using it means loosing friends and excludes from hobbies.
I use WhatsApp without any Android rights other than foreground data usage. I still check my messages once a day, but if someone wants to reach me now, they have to use signal. It also makes it at least less bad for privacy.
My close circle of friends and family do use signal for me and I only get relevant messages every few days on WhatsApp, but getting rid of it still isn't possible in my situation.
I like opentune as a music client, but I use it logged in, which isn't the best for privacy. In my situation, I'm fine with google tracking what music I hear as long as that's the only thing the client shares with google.
If you are actually targeted, your phone should not contain any apps that are not truely required.
But as you mentioned mental health, anxiety often makes people misjudge their digital risks and taking more extreme measures that make their devices less usable to protect against nonexistent threats. You could talk about that with someone you trust who understands your situation if you struggle with finding a balance between privacy and usability.
As the database is encrypted in your device, you dont really need to self host. A keepass database in the Google cloud is not really problematic, although you should still choose a more private cloud provider.

Probably AI translated. troet.social is a german instance, there's a link to the original text at the top.
Edit: The German text also has some AI-like features.
In the current political climate, this isn't merely a privacy risk, it threatens the savety of the LGBT guests of these locations.

In this context probably people that did not get testosterone therapy.
He makes crypto sound way cooler than it is
Meta vs NSO is one of the few situations where they are the less evil company.
Sounds like a good candidate for an Ig Nobel Price.
Kinda funny seeing the pope promoting decentralized systems, with the catholcatholic church being one of the most centralized hirachical systems.
Cookie autodelete has whitelists, optionally different per container.
Cookie autodelete works great together with Firefox containers. Then add I don't care about cookies and the Internet becomes usable again.

Mullvad also has some blocking DNS servers, for just ads, malware, or also social media and adult content.

And Im fairly confident that they don't track.
You can add new WiFi/Bluetooth connections to a locked device on normal android???
Its all the AI safety peoples fault, stop expressing your concerns and start blindly trusting us already. /s
