  1. You should use a VPN or an tracker blocker like DuckduckGo. This is the only way to slow down the information you are sending out. You might not be able to completely stop Google and Samsung from tracking you, but there's no reason to share yourself with all other data harvesting services.

  2. You have to obfuscate the info that makes it through by using multiple, unlinked Google accounts that let you put separate components of your life into separate silos.

Better idea: Make them superplurals.

E.g. fish (singular), fish (plural), fishes (superplural)

I left Windows because of the Settings nonsense.

12 years later you rubes are still getting fucked by this garbage. That's why I'm here. 😂

The space between a wale's blowhole and their teeth isn't their forehead, it's an enlarged upper lip.

The only terminal cancer worth mentioning around here is MS-DOS.

Google says Manifest v3 is being done "for security reasons" but what they don't say is that it's not for your security.

It's a Judge Dredd situation.

Google is vertically integrating the roles of content provider (ads) and content server so that web pages load exactly the way the page's developer expects them to. This necessarily excludes things that selectively filter content, like blockers.

They're essentially taking an open framefork for the web and replacing it with interactive pdfs, that show exactly what the web developer wants, and collects exactly the information the developer wants to know about you.

If you think you should have more control, use Firefox. Anyone using Chrome is complict at this point.

"Fast charging" has 4 conductors.

It doesn't matter to current leadership of reddit how many people it pisses off. For every user of third-party apps, there are now 10 bots and sockpuppet accounts it gets to count as active users.

And that is exactly how you blow the roof off your IPO. Alphabet and Meta have been lying about their user engagement numbers for decades at this point. "Impressions" are all self-reported and they have zero incentive to be honest. Reddit's VC money is begging Spez to get into this game before the IPO. For all they lies they are saying out loud, this is the quiet one.
