The article didn't necessarily clarify what type of data was being reported back, which I think is key. It mentions diagnostic data (I'm assuming crash logs and such), but it says "personal data" without specifying. I th

Yes, I'm experiencing the same thing! I recently switched to Brave beta, and thought maybe it was something there, but I opened up Chrome for another task and was hit with the same issue. I've got a couple common extensions runnin

Silly, but putting up a no-fog mirror in the shower for shaving has been amazing for me. I used to shave after the shower, but now I can take care of it while still in the shower which means it takes less time and there's less cleanup

It's a bit of a relic from back when bank transfers only happened via paper, but I wouldn't call it a scam. Megacorps give each other the same terms all the time, so it's more about tradition and inertia than market power. Th

You can "follow" accounts without becoming a follower in normal mode too. I frequently do this just to keep timelines clear. All you have to do is add an account to a private list (without following them) and then view the timelin
