git-annex? I know there's a Windows port but I've never set it up, and I've 
used it before successfully on android. Everything is encrypted on the backends 
using gpg and setup is pretty easy.

Re: persistent private browsing ?

2015-11-17 Thread Rabin Yasharzadehe
In my case for each new Chrome session I install `ublock origin` , which
allow you to backup your setting to a file.
but you may find where the plugin save it configuration and re-apply them
after chrome start.

I also now about `proxy switchysharp` which allow you to export it
configurations.

Re: portable encypted filesystem

2015-11-17 Thread Rabin Yasharzadehe
VeraCrypt is fork which continue the TrueCrypt legacy,
TrueCrypt had some audit (crowd source founded) on the encryption part
(algorithm and stuff), the boot loader,  and the windows kernel driver
(IIRC).

they found few  vulnerabilities at first (3 I think), but nothing critical,
and they were patched in VeraCrypt.

next was a bug in the windows driver which allowed a user/process to gain
SYSTEM privileges.
which also was patched.

and i do not need all this functionality

what i liked about ecryptfs is that it is the default ubuntu encryption

Re: persistent private browsing ?

2015-11-17 Thread Erez D
you are correct

however, it is  needed to re-configire each and every profile - plugins,
master password etc

would be nice to have different profiles with some common settings, on
different tabs on same window ...

btw, i found that even 'private browsing' is not so private as if you open
multiple tabs or windows of private browsing, they all share the same
cookies.
the only thing different about private browsing is that the cookies are
deleted when all the private browsing sessions end.

portable encypted filesystem

2015-11-17 Thread Erez D
Hello

It is very nice to hold some data on the cloud accessible from everywhere
however if i do not want the cloud to have access to it, it requires
encryption

i could mount gdrive, dropbox or other cloud fs localy
and mount ecryptfs on it so i have transparent encryption

my only problem is that it works on linux only

does anyone knows a way of having a portable transparent encryption
which will support linux, and windows ?

Hi,

I have a itch with Chrome I'd like to scratch but don't have time to learn
how to program a Chrome extension.

Does anyone here know how to program Chrome extensions and is interested in
a small project?

It's about controlling which of multiple parallel logged in Chrome users
(think - workplace Google Apps login in paralel to a personal Google login)
will be used when opening a link from another app (in my case - on OSX)
based on URL matching.

Thanks.

Re: persistent private browsing ?

2015-11-17 Thread Rabin Yasharzadehe
That's right, Incognito/Privet Browsing mode share the same session.
this is why you need to create a new profile for each case.

Chrome & Firefox can be configure to run with pre-installed addons,
but you may need to configure them if needed.
but there some extension which allow you to export there settings (so maybe
you can automate the import ?).

 you are correct

 however, it is  needed to re-configire each and every profile - plugins,
 master password etc

 would be nice to have different profiles with some common settings, on
 different tabs on same window ...

 btw, i found that even 'private browsing' is not so private as if you
 open multiple tabs or windows of private browsing, they all share the same
 cookies.
 the only thing different about private browsing is that the cookies are
 deleted when all the private browsing sessions end.
