I am all in for that and believe that Apple and others should ban these trackers or at least display a warning on what sdks are being used directly in the app store. that would be a good starting point.

A hell of a taxi company with that many engineers and research and development areas. But I agree on WeWork as a real estate company. They are not creating anything.

Many sites do that nowadays. The Information seems to be pretty nice, but it's super expensive. At least to me.

This entire system is just borked. And part of it, is why fake-news spread so easily, since people can't read on newspapers without having to pay for it (which should be fine) but in poor countries, people are not paying for this and e

companies that care about that have email gateways that will store all messages, regardless of you saving/deleting them. this is not something they do at individuals inbox, to prevent what you do with the HR emails.

We are seeing more and more news and speeches like that recently. While I agree with a lot of them, in terms that these big players are really bad for society, I keep thinking, what is making all of this to be published now? Who is actually

DDG is a great search engine. I missed the lack of personalized search that Google gets you, but once you get used and learn how to search properly, you start loving it. And I moved from Google on my phone due to the AMP crap.

It seems that more and more, people just ignore everything in transit to make that turn. Even if it means crossing a 4 lane road to turn left or right in less than 30m..

to me, the very fact that I can die if I don't pay attention to what I am doing (and others around) me, I can get into an accident. We are driving these powerful machines that can do a lot of damage. Its enough to keep me aware. I use

Everyday I read these type of messages I get more worried about buying stuff that needs to 'phone-home' or connect to some remote service to function. And the sad thing is that this is becoming more and more common.

Yes. I was out for 2 years, but during this time, I pretty much lost contact with everyone not in my work circle. Even some family members on different cities. So I got back. I rarely browse the timeline. My phone only has the Messenger ins
