I’ve been on the Android ecosystem for 15 years, I literally thought this was an onion article.

Love it! What happened to the little guy on the right, not a coffee drinker?

Wow, you just melted my mind trying to relive my high school English. I don’t want to wade into anything without thoroughly checking, but I think you may be correct.

I couldn’t have said it better myself.

The Tron-inspired Cybertruck failed in a catastrophic accident because apparently the super powered x-treem window wipers were turbo maxed to the power of RAD.

Xitter, nice name, sounds like an adolescent skin condition.

Fuck tha police N.W.A

“it’s not known whether the leak came from within the company or one of its vendors.”

Isn’t it time that big tech companies and their sale of private data get regulated? I see a giant class-action lawsuit in the making here.

Blinded by the Light by Manfred Mann.

Nice, but Jimi looks older than 26 here.

Unfucking believable, also the grift continues “Avast has been acquired by Gen Digital, a firm that contains Norton, Avast, LifeLock, Avira, AVG, CCLeaner, and ReputationDefender, among other security businesses.”

In the EU, there are standards that must be adhered to, but it’s unclear what privacy standards Meta will maintain or discard in other parts of the world. Their “free” WhatsApp messenger monetizes by collecting user data, including device information, contacts’ phone numbers, and usage patterns. This data collection also allows them to pinpoint your location and share this information with Facebook.

Outside the EU, Meta could potentially use other apps to supplement these data points. It has been well documented that WhatsApp/Meta has shared this data with authorities when required in the past. This move doesn’t give me the warm and fuzzies.

This is the second click bait article I’ve seen today from L4sBot.

Good to know, I thought I was reading the Onion there.

We need to protect our toothbrushes people, from being enslaved into botnets. What has the word come to, who needs a toothbrush connected to the internet?

I’ve been using iask.ai or Phind.com for mostly quick answers to my simple questions, these get me by but I’m no coder or author and I have noticed these options are often pretty terrible for math queries.

Edit: the above services I’m pretty sure are not open source, but their privacy policies seem reasonable.

Not really a win for the casual web user - What Google will stop doing is selling web ads targeted to individual users’ browsing habits, and its Chrome browser will no longer allow cookies that collect that data for the means of selling to third party advertisers.

Meanwhile, Google will still track and target users on mobile devices, and it will still target ads to users based on their behavior on its own platforms, which make up the majority of its revenue and won’t be affected by the change.

Ad companies that rely on cookies will simply have to find another way to target users.

Absolutely awesome!
