Actually DroidCam and DroidCam OBS came out around the same time in 2020 as a OBS plugin and had already had a standalone version prior.

Eh, Ignore that, I was thinknig of OBSCam which came out in 2021. But there were other less-easy ways to do it prior. I used to use a RSTP stream to OBS prior.

OBS-VirtualCam literally was posted Jul 21, 2017.
My logic might be wrong, but 2017 came out before 2020 right?

I think it depends on intended use.
I barely use my "mobile" to talk on as a traditional phone and use them more as portable pocket computers.
The upper-end model even has more memory, higher screen resolutions, etc than a majority of people's computers.

While, I wish they would have disclosed the practice, I'm not even mad...

As the title suggests, Stop replacing features people use with features people don't care about.

• You got rid of my IR port, traveling or using devices is great with that. One of the main reasons I have not upgraded my Note 4.
• You got rid of my built-in RF modulator. Great for traveling, just tune radio to what your phone is set... even talk over radio. N900
• Find a way to support replaceable batteries while being waterproof
• Stop changing the form factor, let our cases, screen protectors, charging cables, otg, hdmi, etc all work with new gen models
• Have drastic changes if you want us to buy more
• Don't expect existing customers to fill your bottom line unless the updated device is spectacular
• Fix your bugs before deploy, S8+ has a static sound while in motion, and other bugs that should have never passed Q/A

I would be surprised if this was virtualization for containers. Think more of lxc, docker, etc.

I got my hat today. I feel like they waited for the flame thrower numbers before they sent out the hats. I'll probably invest in that and wear it around as I believe in the mission.

I didn't read the pay-walled study, but the article and /. post didn't mention a control group.
Maybe the repeated same activity was slowed down over those channels because the exercise had already been done, new paths were created and the brain didn't need to follow the old route anymore. I would want to know the difference from repeating an activity the next day, vs doing it the next day with sleep.

While I love SoftEther and the VPNGate project... if all traffic from x-node is going to the same route, it likely is a VPN.  The next phase of VPNGate is to make bouncing nodes and fake traffic with a huge number of servers or cloud providers.  Have real, popular, sites hosted on the same https paths, etc.  Have those sites implement a push notification system on them, so there is always a constant need for open sockets, etc.  I'm just throwing out ideas, but SoftEther, alone in it's current state would not be enough.

I should have cancelled them when they blocked me from using them from a VPN. They care more about geo-fencing content than user privacy. Especially in today's world where we learn that our fears of spying are true.

Only if you trust the APK source. I foresee the APK sources being flooded with modified APKs to steal credentials or install malware.

I canceled my account, lowered my review and description, and sent a detailed message up the chain through their support about how it's a ad idea.

Why can I use Netflix on a privileged PC but not a rooted phone?

Not having updates on rooted devices through the play store will force users to download Netflix updates through untrusted sources which could be modified to steal credentials.

DRM has a history of not stopping piracy, just annoying users and reducing battery life.

I root my androids to do advanced mounting and linking of apps beyond what standard app2sd can do.

They lost me as a customer, but also they have not cared about a functional app on non-touch devices. I've been messaging them for a while about supporting play/pause with the space bar or multimedia keys on wireless USB keyboards and not forcing mouse use. There is a hack you can use, press left or right to move navigation forward and back, then pressing ok while the ui is up. It still is not user friendly, but allows quicker pausing.

I felt bad for Netflix after the leak and extortion with Orange is the New Black as they were one of the good guys. Now they are SCUM.

What's stopping you from using third party Android builds. Many older phones have some advocate who has an alpha 6.x release. Sure it's probably not stable, but it is an option you have on many Android devices that you don't have with Apple devices.

With this using Netflix's servers and their VPN blocking, I get the following error when testing via various VPNs.

* Could not reach our servers to perform the test. You may not be connected to the internet
