Whether for IT support, remote work, or personal use, RustDesk offers a transparent and customizable remote desktop experience backed by a vibrant open-source community
@tron yes, and in essence all it needs is to be a more convenient version if @tails_live / @tails / #Tails with like @nextcloud / #Nextcloud integration for seamless sync (with like an encrypted /home
for caching and convenience...
Maybe add #Dayon as convenient #RemoteDesktop solution and a basic #AutoUpdater (& Terminal) to it.
@datenritter @mrmasterkeyboard I hope folks who do have missing features did open them up as issues towards the #Wayland developers.
@hodyroff @ml Again: I don't deny that featureset nor that they ain't a compelling offer...
I just need a basic remote desktop at most, because anything else works with #SSH for me...
Seriously, if I was #LinusSebastian of #LinusTechTips I'd literally choose to #donate the cost of a #TeamViewer #subscription to #FLOSS #RemoteDesktop projects like #Dayon instead and sue TeamViewer into upholding their contract or a full refund with interest as if it was a loan because clearly they chose violate that contract on their own terms and initiative!

And yes, Dayon! is awesome and I can fully recommend this as an alternative to TeamViewer, #AnyDesk, etc.

So yeah, TeamViewer literally shot themselves in the foot here by deciding to shaft paying customers who were able and willing to pay the absurd prices you asked for for a one-time license.
That's traffic in the single-digit megabytes per year and client, as there's not much between as clients pinging their server and basically boing some simple handshakes.
Also if I'm on a #LAN why would I want to use TeamViewer and not any #VNC (or god forbid #RDP) server? THE WHOLE POINT OF USING TeamViewer, AnyDesk, etc. IS TO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT NATs, FIREWALLS AND IP-ADDRESSES AND JUST GET CONNECTED FFS!!!
Definitely my recommendation because it also allows for any use-cases and doesn't nag one to "buy a license!"
Ooo lookie, accessibility is not planned. Lol. As usual. Cause foss is just a toy that no one actually depends on.
Microsoft: We insist that you sign onto your personal Windows PC with an online Microsoft account.
Also Microsoft: Windows App Mobile has replaced Remote Desktop Mobile, and no longer supports signing onto your personal Windows PC with an online Microsoft account.
#Microsoft #RemoteDesktop #RDP
@mshelton @freedomofpress @eff I did prepare peoples' devices for that in the past.
My suggestions:
0.
Never assume you'll have any #HumanRights or #CivilRights. Always assume #TSA staff is looking for a reason to jail, deport, deny entry or shoot one on the spot.
1.
Do not have data on them! #CPB will seize any storage media under threat of lethal violence! Use a #ThinClient-like device without any persistent storage. Keep anything important in your head or don't keep it at all.
2.
Have someone to setup a #RemoteDesktop for you post-entry and enshure you've got a #SafeWord to indicate you're acting under duress, so they can redirect stuff to a inconspicuous system.
3.
Have a #decoy system ready. CPB have full, unrestricted bulk access to all data from companies that are located, do business in or have an office within the #USA as per #CloudAct. So much so that they consider it "suspicious" if one doesn't have an #NSABook account.
4.
Make shure all your devices are #clean. Get yourself new throwaway devices and don't trust them if you ever let them out of sight for a second!
5.
Test your setup before you travel to the #US on a different system.
6.
This applies to every single device from #SimCard to #Laptop. Assume that if authorities plug anything in them, they are irredeemably compromised!
7.
Practise proper #ITsec, #InfoSec, #OpSec & #ComSec. Have proper contingencies and emergency contacts in place.
