By that logic, Firefox would be in the same boat. After initially installing, you have to turn off data collection in the settings and disable Pocket in the config.

IE sucked though. Chrome doesn't.

No, fractional reserve banking demands endless growth because debts can't be paid off with interest since the extra money to pay the interest didn't initially exist. Therefore, banks have to lend out more money they don't have so the prior debts can be paid off but in the process they create more debt. But those following loans come with more interest which leads to the insatiable need for more growth in the economy by loaning more money.

Because it allows banks to lend out money they don't have and when the banks lobby hard enough to completely remove whats left of the gold standard, the sky's the limit for lending out money. Creating money out of thin air increases inflation. However, in a weird way it impoverishes the lower classes while inriching the elite class because the latter tends to better connected and therefor closer to the "monetary spigot". This allows the elite class to buy up everything(land, companies, lobby/bribe governments)from the top down like a game of pacman.

That's crony capitalism.

I live in the US. If I turn on uBlock for banking websites, they often don't work.

And in effect still murder people by lowering their standard of living.

On banking websites, yes.

so forcing us to watch them feels like a huge overstep.

We live in a fascist society so I wouldn't be suprised of their audacity..

I thought Brave doesn't have to implement manifest v3 because they're a fork. They can just rip it out.

If it's not open source and its tacked on to Chromium which is already bloated, why compare it to Firefox?

What happened to taxation without representation.

Then have them pool their money together to get a vote.

And if you get caught using a public service you didn't pay for, you get fined.

I also think people should not be allowed to vote unless they pay a flat poll tax. Otherwise it's a conflict of interest.

Tutanota encrypts the subject title while ProtonMail does not. I think it's because they use OpenPGP for compatibility with other email services, but it doesn't support that feature.

But boy howdy am I still waiting on some real basic features in some of theirapps.

Like split tunneling for their Linux VPN client.

Yeah this whole comment thread is not very reassuring about Lemmy and reveals it's just as vulnerable to manipulation. The r/Privacy thread on Reddit was far more honest.

Why not trigger it when someone types "/c/". Using an exclamation mark isn't intuitive.

Sold out our quality of life? People would be spending weeks out of their lives commuting to work and back without cars. There are no perfect solutions. Only trade-offs. And no I would rather not live in a dense city where I'm stacked on top of other people. However, if I could telecommute to work, I'd prefer that, but I know working from home isn't for everyone either. We don't need one size fits all solutions.
