It's sad, but I had to disable google play protect exactly for this kind of things. There is no 'I am sure I want to install this even if you detect it as malware', so you have to completely disable play protect or be unable to install some apps you might need.
Price for youtube premium is the biggest issue. I could live with paying 2€/month for not having ads for me and my family members, but 18€, which is about the same price as both amazon prime video and audio and the highest netflix subscription together is a big no no.
To be fair, some TV stations also do it that way nowadays, and it's extremely annoying.
What if we make something more efficient, like electric hydrogen powered cars instead of this whole nonsense of BEV. BEV is great for the transition to hydrogen, but unsustainable in the long term.
Come on. Why target apple? They could target every phone maker. Android phones have a planned obsolescence of 2 years at best (no more updates of any kind). iPhones last way longer than that and are provided with upgrades for a way longer time.
They are just attacking one of the best in that field.
Because that's what the article was about?
If Meta has been threathened by the UK government for that, they should just stop whatsapp for UK while there are in discussion with the government. This will probably speed up the process.
Lots of highly modified cars on the road here. What do you count as major changes? Aftermarket coilovers? Big brake kits? Body kits? Engine and transmission swaps? Those would all be subject to normal safety inspection here, but certainly not proscribed.
In Belgium:
Aftermarket coilovers: some are allowed, but you must pay per year for the special yearly technical inspection for those.
Big brake kits: forbidden
Stainless steel brake hoses: forbidden
Body kits: same as coilovers
Engine and transmission swap: forbidden
I have also been using them. But I threw them all away at some point. Just because, over time, they kill the USB port on the devices, even if it's not easy to see it. They mostly wear the original connector, so that you can only use those reversible cables and the standard cable just disconnects if you try to use it afterwards.
A simple example would be to enable the full use of the batteries that are already installed in the car. And, like autopilot which would be deactivated if you sell the car. It's indeed not exactly the same, but you bought the car with the batteries, so why would you need to pay more to use them at 100% and worse, why would it be deactivated when the car is sold, which means you lose the prime you paid because the new owner won't pay for something he can't use. But it's stated that with BMW, you can also pay once for life, just like with Tesla batteries, so you probably can't sell the car with heated seats either even if you paid for it for life.
While I can understand that you need to pay a subscription to get 4G connectivity for the car, this one is clearly theft. But BMW is not the only one doing this, Tesla paved the way for this kind of theft.
COVID means COrona VIrus Disease, so it's a "disease", not a "virus". Which means it has to be "la COVID". There is absolutely no reason to say "le COVID" because it is NOT a virus. A virus is causing that disease, but the cause and the result are not the same.
If I take google spyware definition, then many other mails apps need to be banned, for example, those who fetch the mails for you on their own servers (transmitting login/password) like outlook does.
Probably because it's opensource and the dev doesn't need your data as much as "big tech companies".
It's a little bit like asking why you are using linux instead of a big corp OS which has a lot of security/privacy employees.
The prices the SAAS password companies want are stupid.
Did you check bitwarden?
