A slight tangent, but if you like the sound of the cloudflare DoH then you can configure pihole to use it upstream.

Unless they're actively informing you during the 'mugging' (since when has that ever happened and even if it had, most ppl click straight through) then all the thug has done is put out a press release that most victims won't read or hear about.

Someone needs to tell them that when you get a reputation for consistently killing off your product offerings (and not just because they're unsuccessful), then you decrease the likelihood that people will adopt your future products.

I honestly don't see why any business would rely on any Google product these days.

As far as I can tell this is a shift towards a video "news feed". Which seems to be the mainstay of most social media platforms, users hate it but algorithms love it.

I think Steve brought the 'it just works' to the table. Without that the designs have gone too far down one person's vision.

Why?!?!

Specifically listing all email addresses for the last 5 years.

I mean that's a vector data point they're trying to collect but Apple will essentially be generating per app email addresses that can't be linked across datasets.

IIRC correctly the problem the extension makers had with this was there was a maximum limit of the number of urls you could ask Chrome to block via the new API. This effectively destroyed the extension's ability to block ads given their existing lists already blew way past this limit.

Another minor thing but you're also handing control of the control format (wildcards etc) over to Chrome, so all blockers will be forced to use the Chrome format and could no longer extend it in any way for their users.

IMO this is mostly about the trade negotiations with China. If this were actually about spying then Trump wouldn't have offered to include Huawei in the trade deal.

You don't do that if they're a threat to national security.

Developers argue passionately about code indentation, this idea that everyone can be reasonable and agreeable doesn't really sit in the real world where humans are massively diverse.

And let's face it, if the topic is 'how to reduce the world's population', you're going to tell the guy who wants to snap his fingers and kill half of them to sit down and stfu.

I'm sorry but you are factually wrong on it being an overreach by Apple.

Apple's terms expressly allow certain use of their Enterprise certificates by developers, everything else not stated in the T&Cs is forbidden. Facebook broke the conditions set out in the T&Cs by distributing the app outside of its employees (not covered by any of the exceptions).

Apple have every right to revoke the app and would be within their rights to terminate the developer full stop (but obviously that won't happen in this case). So this is pretty much the least they can do without doing nothing. And given how well facebook is digging their own hole with the number of privacy violations that are constantly coming to light, Apple definitely don't want to be anywhere near that train wreck.

What tosh. Accessibility has nothing to do with whether the case has merit.

But it's more worrying that you believe facts should not be required in a court of law.

Humming would be a derivative work and showing people links would be covered by the granting of the original license for publication. Copyright law is well established and works reasonably well (let's ignore businesses buying extensions to it).

There is no 'news' in this article, it's just how the law works currently to prevent theft.

There's a lot of crap in there, mis-characterisations etc. I mean the bit about having an education means you _just_ want to argue with those higher up is brilliant.

I know this from personal experience.

I bought a projector lamp from them (being sold by Amazon itself not a third party) and it overheated and melted the projector mirror. I sent the projector off to Optoma who examined everything and said the bulb was a counterfeit. Presented with this evidence Amazon said they believed their supplier that the bulb was genuine and refused to admit any liability.

They literally said the people that make the product were wrong. I've never bought from them since (5+ years and counting).

Amazon don't care unless it costs them money.
