The problem is that without the beep, these devices are no different than your standard GPS tracker that you could use to track someone without their consent. So it beeps so indemnify Apple from that use case. And for good reason. These d

You're talking about the Amazon app. Technically, the fact that you can add your credit card to pay for things violates the TOS. You never see anyone put up a fight against a giant.

That "dumb" infrastructure still exists. You can host your own file server, either on your own hardware, or in the cloud. Use of these consumer-grade cloud services comes with pitfalls. I see no utility in pretending that altern

So you stopped using 1.1.1.1, because the owner of archive.is deliberately broke his domain so it wouldn't work on Cloudflare, specifically so he could mine your geolocation? You do you, I guess.

The only thing that would lead it to being successful is if people are convinced that the attempt itself isn't alarming, and don't act aggressively to do something about it.

I know this thread is a week old, but the nonsense about the arrested-courier-for-hire was entirely the product of your imagination, not mine. I don't even know how you logically arrived at that conclusion.

There is literally nothing dishonest in this report, and yet you seem very eager to call it propaganda. The Delta variant does change things a lot over the past two months, but that's a different story that will warrant additional stud
