There's First Party Isolation add-on[0] that allows you to enable it by default, and then disable it for a period of five minutes by clicking on an icon. That way, you could click on it when you're using JIRA and have first party

If I anticipated such action could occur, I would use an "X random words" passphrase pattern. It's long, it's random, you don't have to look at it, and is easily communicated to someone. Heck, I do the same for answ

Because the author starts a list and then hopes that other people will contribute to it. I currently have 2 repos with ~1k+ stars, and both of them are not code-related. The rest of the repos (most of which have code) receive <50 stars,

There is no ethical consumption, as in consuming only from ethical companies. But come on, almost each and every one of us has a company (online and offline) that we're desperately trying to avoid whenever possible. Reasons for that co

Net neutrality is not a law. Net neutrality is a principle implemented through different laws in different countries. As such, this practice would depend on how the concept of net neutrality is implemented into local laws.

Microsoft released products with opt-in tracking. Canonical sent an email to a public list asking for feedback . Your comment would stand if Ubuntu 18.04 was already out and this tracking was already in place, but it's not. It'

That's still tracking by default. A safe bet in this case would be a "double opt-in" approach, in which they have a checkmark during the installer, and then send an interactive notification asking you to verify your decision

I would say it's in between. Email by itself (as a protocol) is far from perfect, but you can have other mechanisms to improve on top of it where it falls short (while some other things, like metadata retention, are deal breakers). You

That's "data portability" section of the GDPR, coming late May. The idea behind it is that platforms should provide you with an option to export your data so that you could easily import it to a competing service if you have
