To me it looks like Ghidra ate their lunch. I kinda feel bad for them because it's a solid product with a pro-user business model (i.e not saas).

I am perfectly aware of the manifest V3 controversy, I just use FF on both phone and desktop. Meddling with the way doubleclick and google-analytics gets deployed on the web would effect all browsers.

Fingerprinting resistance should be more focused on feeding false information to these algorithms rather than crippling their functionality and thus sticking out from the crowd. To my knowledge, resistFingerprinting mostly does the latter.

advancement for the sake of advancement is not something to celebrate. I can't imagine a situation where more consolidation in this space is something beneficial for anyone except the company doing the acquisition.

I think it's the best search google has produced. Probably the most extreme example of how good it is: Search for "reebok or the nike" and "Corona - The Rhythm of the Night (Official Music Video)" is the 3rd result

M-DISC user here. I cannot attest the longevity claims as mine are around 5 years old but we'll see. Unless you want to crowd fund an lto tape reader with friends and family, you don't have any other option.

They could single-handedly make peertube 100x more popular by moving there. The only problem being money from ad revenue of course. Brave style micropayments are starting to make more and more sense as I think about it.

I sure hope not. BDrips, especially if done properly by a good scenegroup have an unparalleled bitrate. Unless streaming sites up their game, we'll see a drop in movie image quality everywhere except cinemas.
