RE: Bug Bounty Programs and Funding for Programs/bugs
@dobey This was an idea, i saw 4 diffrent platforums with fees totalling 10%. This is a debate, nothing is set in stone, this is an idea able to change on a wim. As this would be to fix issues the main devs do not have time for. Ubports I think pays the main devs, not freelancers as far as im aware. My idea also would give more to the UT devs.
The crowdfunding would be for each Bug or Issue. Maybe a agps will have a pot of $150 for the person or team implements it.
Do you have sugestions?
Like a platform, reasons against, reason for?Thier is crowdfunding and bugbountys two diffrent things. I was just trying to start a conversation on them. Trying to figure out what would work, and drive the comunity.

RE: Mobile data usage monitoring (dataMonitor app)
Replacing your wifi card and giving it a good dust off may be a good ideah.
Found this tear down:
https://youtu.be/o3iM0oRGWdc
Wifi card repacement
https://www.amazon.com/Dell-Inspiron-Wireless-Half-Height-K2GW5/dp/B01GOHNBLCThis should only take 10 min.
Ground yourself- touch a door knob.
Take out screws for back cover
Locate wifi card and disconnect wifi antennas
Unscrew card and slide up and then out
Then fallow this backwards to install.I would check that your card did not go out due to a change in kernel, this has happened to me, my card worked fine, but linux did not play well.
If you plan on getting a usb wifi card, just know you may have to return a couple until you find one that works out of the box with linux.

RE: Bug Bounty Programs and Funding for Programs/bugs
@keneda My point is we can draw in developers, by crowd funding and bug bountys. It would be nice for devs to make a little side cash for work. Open source is free speach, not free beer. I think we should by our devs beer, and a bug bounty as thousands of companies have would expose UT to hundreds of devs, and more work could be done, alowing our main devs to stay focused on the large projects and have a day or two off. Think of all the side projects they cant get to because they are over loaded with the new port to 20.04... agps, mms issues the list goes on. I do support via patreon already, but i think it would help to 1. Give apriciation to the dev who solves the issue. 2. Free up more time of the main devs. 3. Expose UT to a large group of highly skilled ethical hackers/coders/devs 4. Maybe speed up the development of ut in a controled fashion with out moving to payed or propitary software.
Everything has motivation behind it. We should add some motivation. Ask any person on the street why should they code for UT? Find me reasons.
P.S. Its thrid/fourth of july. Sorry for the typos and bad speach.

Bug Bounty Programs and Funding for Programs/bugs
I have seen in several threads and on the Q&A that some people has looked in to bug bounty programs. I wanted to start a thread to get the community talking about it, and search for a solution. What challenges do we face with taxe's? What is a way we can pay for bugs to be fixed buy people out side the community, maybe it can bring people to the community. What programs are easy to use? What features do we need and are looking for?
I had a simple Idea for a bug bounty program and that is to use a crowed funding campaign for the bug, when the bug is fixed. 75% would go to the team/individual who fixed the bug/application request, 15% would go to the UT team to help support the project and time spent maintaining. the rest for the platform fees and misc.
This would allow the community to decided how much a bug is worth, the only issue I see is if their are multiple teams working on the same project, their would be fierce competition to get your fix in first. Then if there is a tie, who wins the better secure code? This could lead to infighting... We would need a way to delegate bugs.
I put this is support, because I want the community support finding a solution and support to ad hock bug bounty at the moment.

Why is morph built in to the OS, and cant be uninstalled though the store? What if their is a CVE, can we push an update to it with out a whole version change of the os? Do other parts of the OS depened on a web browser? In the future can we see an alternative?

@flohack A little off topic but is their plans in the future for flatpacks or snaps? Like Firefox snap? That would have all dependenceys built in.
