I have quite an extensive history of scraping web sites for various data over the years, I’d be happy to help you out but I can’t really know how to help without knowing what website your trying to scrape, different sites have their own challenges (maybe behind a login, or using JavaScript to load content - in which case a http response won’t give you what you’re after, or any number of things really).

If you give me a link to a book you want to download as an example I can take a look and help guide you through it

The phones with those features have been discontinued but they were never unpopular, they were just what phones were.

Haven’t looked much into the breach, but probably the biggest issue is passwords. If unencrypted, and a user uses the same generic password for their email or bank or whatever, that possess a serious concern.

This highlights the importance of not reusing passwords

Edit: looks like passwords were hashed with bcrypt, which is really quite excellent. Very unlikely anybody is getting actual passwords from this leak.

Your pessimism is more optimistic than my optimism

Kinda seems like capitalism has been that second image for most of my adult life

I miss using my old lg phones, I had the v30, v40, and v50 and they were basically perfect. Now when I shop for phones it’s like looking for the least bad option
