OONI Probe vs S3Crypt

Are websites and social media apps blocked? Is your network unusually slow? Run OONI Probe to find out! With this app, you will examine the blocking of websites and instant messaging apps, measure your network's speed and performance, and check whether systems that could be responsible for censorship and surveillance are in your network. OONI Probe is developed by the Open Observatory of Network Interference (OONI), a free software project (under The Tor Project) that aims to uncover internet censorship around the world. Since 2012, OONI’s global community has collected millions of network measurements from more than 200 countries, shedding light on multiple cases of network interference. ▶ Collect evidence of internet censorship You can check whether and how websites and instant messaging apps are blocked. The network measurement data you will collect may serve as evidence of internet censorship. ▶ Detect systems responsible for censorship and surveillance OONI Probe tests are also designed to uncover the presence of systems (middleboxes) that could be responsible for censorship and surveillance. ▶ Measure the speed and performance of your network You can measure the speed and performance of your network by running OONI's implementation of the Network Diagnostic Test (NDT). You can also measure video streaming performance with the Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) test. ▶ Open data OONI publishes network measurement data because open data allows third parties to verify OONI findings, conduct independent studies, and answer other research questions. Openly publishing OONI data also helps increase transparency of internet censorship around the world. You can explore and download OONI data here: https://ooni.io/data/ ▶ Free software All OONI Probe tests (including our NDT and DASH implementations), are based on free and open source software. You can find OONI software projects on GitHub: https://github.com/ooni. Curious to learn how OONI Probe tests work?

With S3Crypt you do not need to remember all your different and complex passwords, but instead you only need to remember two pieces of information. With those two pieces of information S3Crypt creates very secure and unique passwords. Use with or without a password manager. By using this app your secure passwords will be readily accessible even if your password manager is not available. The two pieces of information you need are very easy to remember: Master Key: Choose anything you want as long as it is known only to you, and remember your Master Key is always the same for every website! Unique Key: Choose any format that can be repeated for all your websites, and remember your Unique Key changes for each website! Examples: For Amazon: Master Key: ExampleMaster Unique Key: amazon For Costco: Master Key: ExampleMaster Unique Key: costco Notice in the examples that the Master Key was the same for both, but the Unique Key changed based on the website being used. Now that you have created a Master Key and a Unique Key format you are ready to use S3Crypt to create extremely secure passwords for each website.  To begin, type in your Master Key and Unique Key, then click Generate button. Next, copy the generated password to the clipboard by clicking the Copy button and then paste it in the password box on whatever website it was generated for. There is no need to memorize several passwords. You only need to remember your Master Key and your Unique Key format. The same website password can be recreated with the same Master Key and Unique Key pair. Key things to remember: 1) S3Crypt does not store or save any passwords. 2) You are the password manager. Only you can create your passwords. 3) Your Master Key never changes. 4) Your Unique Key "format" never changes. 5) Generated passwords are a derived from "both" the Master Key and Unique Key combination. Any difference results in a completely different password. 6) A generated password can never be used to determine the keys used to create it. 7) Both Master Key and Unique Key are case sensitive, in other words uppercase letters are different than lowercase letters and result in different passwords. Enjoy!
