But only for customers.

Great, I didn't know that. They 'ban' the Russian news channels that way as well.

mihor ,

That would likely trigger some sort of 'protection' and they would d̶e̶m̶o̶n̶e̶t̶i̶z̶e̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ steal your ad revenue.

They're playing the long game here. First they assimilated browser space with Chrome, then they disabled manifest v2, and the next step will probably be some reincarnation of WEI just like you said, in order to close down the open internet for good.

If you look at the state of the web right now, most of the interactions and traffic go through the dedicated apps of the big tech (spyware, basically) who are vendor-locking the experience. I figure it will divide the web even further into two entities, one being the addictive big-tech apartheid spyware gardens, and the other being the free fediverse-like FOSS-natured web for privacy and tech enthusiasts, with severely limited interaction between the two. I'll always choose the latter, thank you very much.

Sadly it looks to me a much better experience than the current state of the ad space...

He's the bastard that ran the Chrome project!

I have a 17 year old car with ESP (electronic stability) and without any 'smart' stuff. I'll run it until its last breath.

Your honor, it was not a rape, it was my legitimate interest in sex.

mihor ,

They will call it legal and we will like it.

Bu that's the general view of executives pretty much in all big companies. I mean about the users being cash cows. It's irrelevant what executives think about LGBTQ+ community, they know very well that pecunia non olet (cash doesn't stink) so they ignore their own views, whichever they may be.

  • Hold them?! * chuckles * No, sir, we will not hold you... Certainly not for longer than this crematorium takes to process you. 😵‍💫

But I reckon there's not that much support for most trackers, and most need to first be registered with the official app, defeating the privacy. Is there a reasonably good product that works on gadgetbridge without vendor registration?

mihor ,

Anything that works, really.

As an anecdote I once tracked down a person who threatened me. The only things I had were their likeness (whilst wearing a mask!), the car and plates (which were only useful to positively identify the person was correct when I called the phone number and asked 'do you own such and such car with such and such plates') and the fact that the person worked for a law firm (not specific) using only osint.

mihor ,

RIP battery.

Finally deleted my LinkedIn account!

After putting my account into "hibernation" for the past few weeks, I finally closed it. But I'm still looking for work. Thankfully I can still find positions (SRE and software dev) by just going directly to the company's site and finding a Jobs page.

Good luck to everyone else out there looking for work!

mihor ,

Shit, I got almost half of my jobs through that site, though. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. 😆

mihor ,

Now, where might one find those? For science, of course...

mihor ,

Doesn't Ghostery do that for us?

mihor ,

Thanks, I'll look into that!!!

mihor ,

That's me checking the frozen pizza oven temp and duration. Every. Single. Time.

mihor ,

Dillon, you SOB! 🥲
