Hilarious! It never occurs to the model that the user might be using a privacy-oriented browser (I tried it on several devices in several browsers). I like it even though it's drawing totally incorrect conclusions.

Brave just disables the cookie banners (they don't even load), while this fills such forms if I understood correctly. Somehow I get very targeted ads in other apps after using Brave, so I tend to use firefox-based browsers for personal

Thanks for sharing. By skimming through readme some stuff is still not clear to me: - Can it be used for rejecting consent and not just consenting to everything? - If so, do you maybe know what happens when it doesn't have a rule for r

Is there a good explanation why didn't gdpr "make websites obey do-not-track" (or a similar set of rules/whitelist/blacklist that can easily be set once in a browser) instead of prompting for manual consent every ti

Yes, and I'm glad I can at least now tell such sites from others. Not allowing such malicious compliance would be better, but this is still an improvement over websites stealing data with no way of telling it happens

I hope more companies start recycling their own products. It makes me sad to see so much valuable electronics, so many "totalled" cars just thrown away on the same heap as other rubbish (and old cars respectively). Such a waste of

In case you watch on an Android phone: Newpipe doesn't even use your account, so the possibility of getting banned for it is much smaller. You can make playlists in it and track your history (locally), so I don't think it's i

Knowing facts and applying algebraic formulas indeed doesn't seem to be doing much, but I guess education about logic, critical thinking, biases, fallacies and debate _would_ play a role _if such education was emphasized_.

Interesting. I had the impression that Chinese will likely become very useful during our lifetimes... With the momentum their economy has, I expect knowledge of both English and Chinese to become a very sought out skill

Ditto the first sentence. One imperfect, but applicable analogy: "emotions are a fuel, and reasoning should be the steering system" I think it would be useful to emphasize that not letting the emotions govern applies to regret as

If advertising is giving an expected edge over competition bigger than price decrease, then the advertising will be used in sort of an arms race that could have been a competition in giving the best product for the least money instead. Stil

I know it's just a figure of speech, but I'd also like to add a reminder if someone needs to see it: channeling that same rage into investing time and effort into making a change is the very reason why such an enraging show is mad

What a disingenous question, yuck. No, whether ads are relevant or not was never the core issue, so that alone wasn't the cause of his actions (btw, doesn't sound like much effort tbh). The relevance of ads is just a symptom of un
