    How do you use them if you don't decrypt them? At some point you have to see them in plaintext. Even if they are sensitive and not shown in the UI you can still start an app and cu…

    Blending in with the crowd doesn't work. If you use Chrome on Windows you're part of a very large group and "don't stick out". But it's also very easy to fingerprint so you're also…
