    A. Device part of a business infrastructure:
    Just don’t change anything; those policy are there for a reason!

    B. Consumer device:
    1/ If we’re talking about proprietary hardware/software forcing your network to use a specific DNS, then you need to provide more details because you should be able to change it.

    2/ There is also the case for a malware:
    A fresh start is preferable.
    Disinfect the system while offline, then back up the needed files.
    Reinstall the system on a new/old formatted drive.
    With the exception of taking your privacy/security seriously this time.

    Sorry for the delay, haven’t checked Lemmy for a while, The pattern isn’t repeated with me, if I could easily share a screenshot of the app I would have shared it.

    I always reverse engineer troublesome apps (To put it lightly) to disable the ability of screenshot, among other changes (don’t rely on internal feature).

    Mozilla opposes a proposal because it goes against their principles and vision for the Web.
    They believe that any browser, server, or publisher that follows common standards should be considered part of the Web.
    Standards are designed to be independent of specific hardware or software, allowing for a wide range of devices, operating systems, and browsers to access the Web.
    This diversity of choices promotes accessibility and overcomes personal obstacles.
    Mechanisms that restrict these choices harm the openness of the Web and are not beneficial for users.

    The proposal’s use cases rely on the ability to detect non-human traffic, which could hinder assistive technologies, automatic testing, and archiving and search engine spiders.
    These tools require access to content intended for humans in order to transform, test, index, and summarize it.
    The proposed safeguards are unlikely to be effective and fail to address these concerns adequately.

    Mozilla acknowledges the importance of addressing fraud and invalid traffic but finds the proposal lacking in practical progress for the listed use cases and highlights clear downsides to its adoption.
