  • It’s really accelerated in the past few years. It’s nearly impossible to just read an article or use any product without giving it some kind of information. Lots of people (myself included many times unfortunately) just accept this. I mean, what can be done? If you want or need to use the thing you almost have no choice. If you want to avoid information leaks or being tracked you have to do so much research and work just to find an option, and then hope they don’t get purchased by a company that will reverse it all. I hate it.





  • I don’t know anything about iOS development, but my guess is that since this is a google app they do show the chrome icon regardless if you have chrome installed or not. If you don’t have it, clicking that will take you to the App Store.

    They show safari because that comes on an iPhone that that’s the default default browser (i guess that’s the way to say that?)

    I don’t think they have a way to scan your phone for what other apps are installed and list the ones it thinks are web browsers here. What I mean is that I don’t think that it’s technically possible of feasible to display a Firefox icon here. How could it know you have that app?







  • So what is a good camera system to own? I currently have ADT and I’m really not happy with it. It’s expensive and the cameras only record 30 second clips. It can detect motion, it records 30 seconds and that’s it, regardless of how long the motion event actually takes.

    Example: someone drops off a package and they hang out on my porch - I have no idea what happens after the 30 second mark! It’s insane. No way to change this either. The only option is for how long to wait between 30 second clips, and the lowest option is 2 minutes.
