Except their results are still sub par, which is the whole point of the case - Google has abused it's position to make competition difficult to impossible.

Adblock doesn't hide search results, child comment gave an example but in many cases it's worse, worthless SEO crap is annoying but not quite as bad as the ones that clone genuine content to obtain higher rankings and then attempt

Demonstrably terrible results for the simplest of queries, returning drive by malware as preferred results etc, there is nothing subjective about that.

I mean, it should be a pretty easy case, Google search is objectively terrible and their other practices are extremely shady as shown repeatedly. Obviously law isn't that simple but at least the judge appears to be seeing through thei

This is everything that's wrong with modern software. Do not introduce a pointless dependency like python because of a lack of knowledge about the build system of choice. Just use something more appropriate (that isn't python).

It was never proven to be compromised though. GCHQ concluded after many years that they were sloppy, not malicious. All of the fear mongering by the US is what gave everyone the impression they were compromised.

Well if a state couldn't conceal origin they aren't very good, but there are always markers..

Standard reporting now, something that isn't "us" must be Russia or China, no need to do any real investigation

Umm, yes, yes it does - they're also called profiles and work the same way.

There are other options for this where that's their primary product, Mozilla need to decide what they want to be, or at least fix the plethora of Firefox bugs before doing anything else (current one present after years: auto fill of an

This is an accurate assessment, on the other hand things like tinder actually have more reach in Asia mostly due to cultural differences.

"why don't you have Netflix?" I hear very often, now I have an article to point at finally!

Yup, the verification works against regular users and in favour of automation. But that's a good business model for them, without impossibly attractive potential matches nobody would pay for anything, so they have no financial desire

ai is literally the human equivalent of a sociopath and/or narcissist, it's devoid of human emotion

Sure, but the hit rate is still much lower.

LinkedIn has a much lower hit rate, because people tend to search for region specific jobs, whereas Tinder you can send any location you desire with your fake profile (but they're very easy to spot). The Tinder things are very rarely r

AI can't feel suffering, after all.

by throwaway67743 3y ago
Correct, I did some research into this, while the initial match is automated, you're connected with someone likely under duress, Tinder/Match do not care about this at all (in my present country its 80%+ profiles that are evidentl

This is not new at all, there are US companies facilitating this (see: Tinder e.g) with zero regard for the lives of the people forced into doing this. They actively ignore these things and profit off it, absolutely disgusting.

> NHS is also public infrastructure but I'd rather not even get into that. I'll just say that I'm convinced the Gov is letting NHS collapse on purpose so that they can pick it apart and privatise it. It's simply impos

Last time I was in the US it was pretty bad, I'm not sure comparing to the worst is fair but compared to Europe it's not so great - at the time I had T-Mobile but they differentiated different states etc as they may need roaming d

Correct, advertising unlimited with caps is not allowed, unlike the US for example. In my case they clearly have to say upfront on the cheaper unlimited, it's not rate limited until X but the caps have to be proportionate so it's

Technically it is data, but it's an archaic system that really should just go away and be replaced by something native to IMS/LTE+ but unfortunately legacy is hard to kill

If argue that it's the opposite as there is competition and in civilised European countries there is working regulation etc, not like the US where carriers are able to lobby and cheat to maintain their monopolies - case in point I have

Maybe they can fix some of the many outstanding bugs in Firefox Android while they're at it... Like not suggesting logins if autofill is disabled, or at least allowing mass delete for logins so it doesn't suggest them. It's i
