It wasn't my intention to accuse them of lying. I guess I genuinely don't understand what their point is. All I (unsuccessfully) tried to point out is that the two scenarios are different.

It's not about that. It's about whether we accept corporate arrogance to make decisions on behalf of a vulnerable demographic.

I hope I didn't miss this from the article but how do client and server "negotiate" which protocol to use?

From a adoption perspective, how much is adopting HTTP/2 or /3 different from adopting a new IP "version" i.e. IPv6?

> The US only accounts for 12% of the total carbon output into the atmosphere. Should we take population into account? The US only accounts for ~4% of the world's population. so I wouldn't say "only".

That, and that governments do what they promised they would do in the Paris agreement. It should really not be that controversial.

Not that I was serious in any way. But since we're talking about it, I am not convinced that our societies are able to coordinate an effort like that on a scale that would make a difference to the global climate. Maybe I'm unaware

what people keep forgetting is that not everyone is in the situation where they are able to use those services. Using Keepass with cloud sync via Dropbox (or Gcloud, etc) is not possible in a lot of corporate contexts.

This interests me. Can you elaborate on what downsides you see? Even in a small team we're often working within the same repo at the same time without any issues.

There sure is. Most big companies work that way I would imagine. I can install browser extensions, no problem but local apps are restricted. Also Dropbox and others are blocked at the corporate firewall level.

This works if your environment allows a) installing applications and b) cloud sync using consumer clouds (dropbox, gdrive, etc You are right that this is a good approach for many it will certainly break for many as well.

That's interesting, I too, have had the exact opposite experience. After having tried multiple VPN providers I settled for NordVPN because it gave me the most consistent speed.
