I’d love to see that.

I believe that’s Apple talking to Google, not anything local you can own.

The cars were probably also being nudged just in case.

If you tell corporations there’s a way to increase lock-in and decrease account sharing, they’re gonna make it work.

Something like NextDNS as a no-brainer? It works but hits the limit of the free tier if people use it beyond their phone.

I used to recommend uBlock as a no-brainer, now folks really need to change towards a better browser.

Old news? Seems to be a subject of several papers for some time now. Synthetic data has been used successfully already for very specific domains.

Normification is a facet of our undemocratic capitalism. As you see yourself as a consumer of the internet and not a citizen, you mostly assume that a thing being

1. popular
2. monetizable
3. and convenient

is always preferable.

So the internet continues to have a huge potential to host many cool places, but

1. they can’t reach users that might be interested
2. gaining support from small donations is difficult
3. and they can’t integrate a complete set of features, accessibility, design and content moderation.

If you ask an average internet user about these places, it’s a common response to say they’re weird as in not normal. If you dig a bit for what they mean, it’s usually the above. Nobody is there, it can’t make money and it doesn’t have all the things.

We would be better than ever, if not for the normification.

Maybe the EU will eventually extend these rules to the iPad. I’ve already tried installing from the epic website and the process is not that bad.

Only for EU iPhones, right?

This might be a best case scenario. It won’t happen, Mozilla has been turned into a corporate funds receiver for years. That CEO compensation doesn’t pay for itself. Imagine paying for actual software engineering work.

Cat and mouse game, it’s better to DNS block ads.
