Looked up to see who owns Volvo, just out of interest. Ford purchased in 1999 and sold to a Chinese firm in 2010.

I should have closed the tab when I saw the boast of Facebook/Google/Microsoft logos and the words "trusted by". But I thought I'd join the waiting list to see the product in action. So I give my email, I'm the

Oof, that’s not a pretty read for DDG. So now what!? Often I look at people around me who are blissfully unaware of data mining etc. and feel envious. It’s tiring.

It has been reinstated, as per the youtuber’s comment. I couldn’t listen to the video so I can’t comment on the reason.

:) BTW, 2 hours ago I recevied the initial email from Satellite to add ETH to my wallet. I clicked the link and confirmed. The message said it would be a few minutes until I receive ETH (I forget the exact message). Is a few hours to be exp

What's the identity/signatures you mentioned for Satellite? It doesn't require an email address, for example, so what's associating an account to the actual real life me. Genuine question.

Many thanks for the info. Love the site design/build BTW. May I suggest advising mobile users to use a desktop to sign up, if you are going to continue to hide the sign up from mobile users. The barrier to entry is high enough with the

If you don't mind me asking, where do you play these digital board games?
