Many people change the horn from the factory fitted one to another of their liking (louder and/or different sound pattern/music), though it’s not legal. I don’t believe that the factory fitted horns are less loud than in Europe or

So, collectively punish everyone on the road (in front of you) because you crossed the limit instead of punishing you, the culprit, alone? That sounds very weird as a punishment.

This kind of “Gmail Beta” thingy that makes the service a premium and doesn’t allow people to join in good faith is why I didn’t join said site. I once waited there for an invite on chat, was polite and everything, but didn’t get invited. I

With Apple’s secrecy, it may not be easy to get a source for certain product developments. But it’s a guess that one could wager on, since Apple values complete control over its design, components, etc. Relying on Intel, while a lot better

That program is available only in a limited number of countries (I’m guessing wherever Apple can make it an interest free loan). It may be the one triggering continuous upgrades in countries like the U.S. and adding to the volumes.

IMO, it’s the ones that have a lean, low cost, low price, high volume model for their products or services. India is a highly cost sensitive market and there’s hardly any kind of customer stickiness that can be taken advantage of. Even mobi

This is available only on Android though. On iOS, Firefox Focus (or any Firefox or other browser) is tied to Apple's restrictions. So there's no scope for browser extensions as we generally think of it.
