  • Thank you for that I have been testing it right now and trying to get the full articles at once through the rules if any, unable to find a solution yet, will search further if I could get the full articles at once for offline reading

    Update: Unable to get the full article. other than the original page view

    Followed the following info, it doesn’t always work

    Convert Partial Articles in Feeds to Full-Text Articles
    
    Feedbro has built-in engine for transforming partial text feed articles
     to full-text articles. This feature is not automatically on for all feeds 
    and must be enabled per feed. 
    To do that, right-click the feed in the feed tree and select 
    Properties. Then use "Feed Entry Content" for adjusting full text 
    extraction settings. Click "Preview" button to check that 
    you get desired results and then press "Save".
    
    Note that obviously full-text option should not be used 
    if the feed already 
    provides full articles. Also the full-text conversion doesn't 
    work for all feeds and sites but it works pretty well 
    for majority of sites. 
    

    so far the only one which has been suggested is Chaski is the one I like ,

    but you need to be online to retrieve the full article one by one first, then it lets you read the full article offline

    Nothing like a podcast player which always downloads the full article, to be read offline














  • Not directly the state actors really more to do with the consequences ie common hacks into state actors resources make the data open to misuse and the state actors do not take any responsibility if they are hacked, right!

    When an AI system is given access to it , it can uncover hidden patterns or vulnerabilities that humans might miss. This ability can lead to consequences, such as exposing sensitive information or breaking security measures, especially if the data is encrypted or anonymized. AI might also exploit weaknesses in the data, resulting in data breaches, privacy violations, or malicious manipulation. AI could leak personal details or confidential information, leading to significant risks like reputational damage or financial loss. AI to operate beyond traditional oversight makes these risks harder to predict and control.







  • I have tried to post my thank you message but “hanging” after clicking the reply button has continued for 3 days or so.

    I sincerely thank you for your incredibly thoughtful and detailed response. Not only did you take the time to explain everything so clearly, but the way you included your personal experience really made a difference.

    It’s rare to come across someone who is willing to share such in-depth insight, and I truly appreciate how much effort you put into helping me understand things from a practical standpoint. Your advice has been extremely helpful,

    Thank you again for being so generous with your time and knowledge!

    I agree that I have to to rely on the encryption for what I have for the films online/cloud, and that seems acceptable.

    However, when it comes to personal family photos and videos, I’m facing a dilemma.

    • If they’re stored online, they’re vulnerable to potential compromises (PRIVACY CONCERN) -maybe not now, but in the future, especially with the risks posed by AI training.

    • On the other hand, if they’re kept offline, I’m still at risk of losing them due to physical factors, especially since I live in an earthquake-prone area


  • Thank you everyone so much for your responses. You’ve truly opened my eyes to so many aspects I hadn’t even considered before.

    Your insights were not only thoughtful but also incredibly helpful. It’s rare to come across such comprehensive answers that cover so many angles, and I really appreciate the time and effort you took to share them.

    Each of you has given me a lot to think about, and

    I’m grateful for the depth of understanding you provided. Thanks again!

    As a first step, I’d like to pick one of the programs to start with:

    Cryptomator

    gocryptfs (not so Windows-friendly)

    GnuPG

    VeraCrypt (slower than TrueCrypt, and since it’s offered as a replacement, it makes me suspicious, especially since TrueCrypt mysteriously vanished without providing any explanation. Some people believe VeraCrypt might have backdoors, whereas TrueCrypt’s abandonment perhaps didn’t provide any backdoors.)

    TrueCrypt (I have used it occasionally on my Windows PC, although it is no longer updated)
