That’s a crossover episode i did not expect

The telegraph? Why am I not surprised?

A lot of android apps rely on GCM (google’s notification servers), I assume Whatsapp is one. Signal does too, but I think it can use its own websockets when gcm is not available, same for telegram. Whatsapp probably not.

Some ROMs with no google services restore the gcm funciinality via microg. Graphene os, as far as i know, does not have microg.

Society if those devices had been the precursors of smartphones and not the closed box that were back then:

“Learn” linux not even a requirement, a lot of distros work fine as a normal-person-os out of the box (Ubuntu & any of its spin-offs, Manjaro, Deepin, etc), with maybe some minimal youtube/forum troubleshooting, probably comparable with the amount you would do on windows.

There is your “free market”, lmao. Will have to start to look on how to buy cars directly from china and import them later. Sorry but I have no interest in Stellantis’ garbage, and the fact that Italy will bend 90° and vote in favor, despite stellantis abandoned over the years basically every manufacturing plant in italy to move where labor is cheaper, sending workers home and shit, shows how this, is much more about corrupt goverments satisfying EU “lobbying” groups demands to have their little protected market with no competition where they can force you into buying their trash cubes for x4 the price a chinese EV would cost you. Good job.

A lot of angry downvotes

Isn’t this the same as “Total Cookie Protection” that was released a while ago?

Is this a Mob Psycho reference?

I mean, it does balance out .world sent-by-my-dad memes, otherwise this place would basically turn into reddit.

I have to agree lately tho I’ve seen a lot of very low-effort political/ideological memes. They should get better.

Thanks for this pearl

This. It’s a sensor, detecting only a specific air type. Not a camera, not a microphone. It doesn’t have to do with privacy, this is not “scan and collect data about all to punish one” and cannot be turned into one.

I’ll agree it’s a fuc**ing dumb idea. Like utter useless garbage. Classic capitalistic “fix behavioral trash-consumption issue with overpriced fancy tech products that sound amazing in theory and are garbage in practice, without fighting the problem at the root”. Screenshot comment said tax moeny but I’m willing to bet this is some kind of private school.

Also I disabled send a do not track signal as it is used for fingerprinting

Doesn’t this only make sense if it is off by default on that browser? I assume if it is on by default, most people will just keep it on, thus making users of that browser that turn it off stand out more. No?

I was talking about there being no option to whitelist some websites to keep their cookies, and as you can see it is not present there, while the desktop versione has it

Sadly that is not an option for firefox on android yet (while it is on desktop), the only choises you are left with are:

• Use ff focus that completely resets the browser deleting every cookie in the process
• Use normal ff and:

1. Just accept that you have to deal with cookies and care to carefully select Reject on every banner
2. Turn on delete data on “exit button press” (which sadly deletes everything again, with no possibility to whitelist some websites).

That said, i believe Firefox should have (even on android) their “total cookie protection” thing which puts them in separate containers for each domain, so you are somewhat protected by cookie cross-tracking, but i would still prefer to delete most of them at close.

On desktop (which is what the website in question is mostly loaded in) is 6,6%. Still isnt huge but definitely more significant.

Meanwhile here in italy when a major company fails and goes bankrupt because of shitty management, corruption and greed, we first “save” it with public funds, then sell it to someone else to profit off of it
