Re: How much anonymity does a VPN really provide? Hardware and Software Information Security by Liam91 A VPN is a tool that keeps your internet connection safe and private. It stops others from seeing what you do online. But a VPN doesn’t make you completely anonymous.

Programming Software Development by kearawill GitHub is generally very secure for hosting code, especially with features like 2FA, security alerts, and private repositories. However, like any platform, it's only as secure as how you use it. I’d never recommend storing sensitive information like passwords, private keys, or database credentials—even with .gitignore. Instead, use environment … Re: How secure is Github? Programming Software Development by Dani > I’d never recommend storing sensitive information like passwords, private keys, or database credentials—even with .gitignore. Instead Why not, though? Doesn't .gitignore just completely *ignore* the files to where they never touch Github's servers?

It turned out that the variable was *not* meant to store a fully-formed URI but actually only part of one, and therefore always failed the check. Re: How much anonymity does a VPN really provide? Hardware and Software Information Security by TurisVPN A VPN helps hide your IP and encrypt your internet, so others (like your ISP) can’t see what you do online. But it doesn’t make you totally anonymous. The VPN company can still see your traffic (if they keep logs). Websites can track you with cookies, and if you log in with your real info, they know who you are. So, a VPN is good for privacy … Re: Are Cross-Platform Apps Slower Than Native?
