The bar for losing your job as a congress person or any public servant for corruption should be way lower than the bar for being sent to prison.

There’s “knowing how” and there’s having your mobile constantly within arms reach.

Also, her obvious corruption. Her and her husband make waaaaaaaay above average on the stock market due to her insider knowledge. But I’m sure that never affects her policy positions.

Don’t forget his “lawsuit” against Media Matters.

The fact you assumed this was ideologically motivated is insane. Do you have any critical thinking skills?

There are very few Linux viruses. With its low market share, it’s not a juicy target, or at least not desktop users.

I don’t think it’s a given and the dev has a proven track record.

…buuuuuutttt they did move to a much smaller userbase so I wonder how many ads he will need for sustainability.

Current user of Niagara here, it’s just a unique option. You have favorites on a scrollable list (one app per line) and then you can scroll down an alphabetical list of all apps by letter on the side. Plus the optional subscription is $5 a year, which is actually reasonable in my opinion.

From the context of the other two paragraphs, you can narrow down what I meant. Stripped of context it is general, yes.

Not all country code top level domains were free, just a select few. And not everyone used free TLDs, just people with tight budgets who weren’t expecting to make money on their sites, as well as scammers and people who wanted to stay anonymous for other reasons.

It’s very irregular for a country to take back top level domains. Even refusing to renew registrations is unheard of.

ML, tk, etc broke ground by offering free country code TLDs starting 10 years ago. This was possible until Meta sued Freenom this year for issuing domains to the majority of all sources phishing traffic.

Basically, the internet got used to getting TLDs for free, and that was great, except the issuers of said domains (African countries with not a lot of money) have no obligation and no incentive to keep doing that forever. Especially after it became a liability.

You can easily change that setting and it’s one of the first most basic things I do with a new browser.

That’s not a realistic worry for the world’s most used browser platform. There are three Billion with a B Chrome users. 3,000,000,000

Even if 99% of users disabled telemetry they would still have a telemetry base of 30 million. And I would guess it’s closer to 90% telemetry enabled right now since most people do not change browser defaults.

I was going to suggest Firefox, but TIL Apple doesn’t allow non-safari-based browsers and all code must ship through the app store and that’s why Firefox iOS doesn’t have extension support like it has on Android. Wild.

Firefox has multi-account containers and chrome does not. That (mozilla-created) extension is their killer app for me.
