Damn, that indeed looks interesting. Could someone give here a Factor vs Forth tl;dr? Forth appears to be tailored for embedded systems, but the velociraptor is growing quick on me.

This isn't just programmers trying to "solve" a "problem" though, although many are indeed very confused about what constitutes a problem, let alone a solution. There is (or was, at least, prior to covid and the var

Hah, I also once had a technician come home to diagnose connectivity issues and in the process try to convince me that the shitty Internet speed I had was just fine for my needs, and how my needs were supposedly just as his. Do your goddamn

You're not suggesting to use Google Fi to reduce tracking, right? In any case, multiplexing wouldn't stop the tracking, and they might as well figure out just as much about you.

Yeah. I don't understand the point then. I can get two completely unrelated variables and show that there is correlation between them.

Phone companies track you by virtue of your phone talking to cell towers, and they do sell your data. What OS or software you run on the phone is irrelevant. Recent versions of Android do not allow user-level applications to read the IMEI&#

The phone company is still tracking your IMSI/IMEI, and they sell data too. The former is directly linked to your identity; the latter also trivially so for most people.

The OS is just part of what enables tracking; the cell company can track you just as easily regardless of OS. Apple's privacy claims are sheer marketing; their business is not so directly tied to mass surveillance like Google's, s
