I don't understand the appeal of updating software at all. Once a piece of code becomes feature complete for my purposes I don't ever want it to change. Change just means more things break, features disappear, or the app becomes bloated, and now apparently, may start injecting ads.
I uninstalled noscript years ago when it started updating twice a week with apparently miniscule changes just to pop up its ad filled landing page. Its a fucking javascript blacklist/whitelist app, why on earth does it need to update? If I wanted a "browser security suite" (what noscript currently bills itself as) I'd download that specifically.
- esrauch 13y agoEvery piece of software I use is broken in some way. Auto updates allow me to hope that they are a little less broken each day.
- hackinthebochs 13y agoMy philosophy is it's not broken if I don't notice it.
- esrauch 13y agoMy point was that I notice broken things roughly every day.
