   > Why on earth would you want to load JS before content is loaded but not after? apparently, single-page-apps is an unstoppable trend. I tried to disable JS and 99% site won't work. But for content sites, after the article is loaded

   why not disable javascript once and for all. Most site shouldn't run any js after content is loaded. I hope there's something like <body onload="js.disable()"> I can only do it manually in DevTool.

    If phones were totally banned for kids, where would the kid get to know the world? TVs? Newspapers? Magazines? Well those are on-way, with limited feedbacks. What's the better alternative except phones?

    I feel End-to-end is over marketed. Yes it protects your data from transmission pipes, but data on both your "ends" can be easily controlled and duplicated. Your picture on your device can be accessed by 3rd party, so does your da

    You don't need other carrier's permission if the direct-to-cell satellite allows anyone to receive data.

    Datacenters in space have one asymmetrical advantage: FBI cant physically raid them. And with Direct-To-Cell, content delivery satellites in space are unstoppable.

    you don't need invisible chars. Just use a different text direction. e.g. decipher this message as its written bottom-to-top, RTL ``` t_____s s_____i e___s_h t_a_i_T ``` (swap underscore with a space)

    Wechat does not reveal "user location", it only applies to "public account". It's not what you'd imagine for an "account", it's more like an "news feed" where org can publish articles.

    In the past every company had strict control to prevent source code from been leaked to a third party. And yet here we are.

    I believe it partially works, the `warp-cli` command changed a lot in recent versions. My impression it either setup a socks5 proxy or generate a wireguard config and connect to CF.
