Nah once they know you can be fleeced for $50 per month, they also know there is much more money to extract from you. Their advertisers would be mad if they remove this juicy cohort of moneybags from their audience.

It's about explicitly deciding to allow certain capabilities on a per-website basis. No major browser allows defense-in-depth via fine-grained website permissions. Even simply changing the user agent was sabotaged at Firefox, and choos

Firefox has so much built-in tracking it seems they want to push me to build my own browser. For example every time you open the settings there are several ways they are sending out pings to certain extensions. Also by default addons.mozill

It happened many times to me, especially on H1 but also from senior FAANG engineers on their mailing lists. If your job is to pretend all is fine it is easy to discard valid reports.

There's documents that show Trump's father searching for a boat captain who can ship goods from Florida to New York. I have a feeling that black folks living in the Trump-owned low-income areas were the final destination for the w

I take a very large grain of salt if a researcher is literally based in California and they produce "findings" in support of a California-based megacorp such as Facebook. And then the headline is "lacks evidence" and &qu

One thing is old money, another is telling everyone you are selfmade when in fact you are a nepo kid. If you are old money you tend towards intelligence roles because they give you diplomatic passport and make you immune to the law. It is m

Well done. Would be nice to remove a bit more five eyes tracking from your stack, e.g. remove includes from 3rd party domains such as unpkg / tailwindcss.com and of course get rid of cloudflare.

I guess it's storage, sensors and microwave links. On one corner you can see a concrete pad where a small boat can land unseen from the mainland. There are some official helicopter flyby videos but all of them fail to capture this one
