Have never had a popup ad like this. Maybe because I have all of that stuff turned off?
Seems like an oddly specific reason to run Linux on your personal machines tho.
There are tons of other issues that are far more relevant and affect more users than simple windows store popup ads that most people don't seem to get.
Yes, windows is heavier. Yes, it will use more power and resources. It's not intended to conserve resources and run on every system known to humankind. We all know this. How it is a surprise to anyone is beyond me
This has been argued over for a long time now. They routinely fight against orders from foreign governments (foreign to Switzerland). When one case comes along and the Swiss government actually says they need the information, and the courts say Proton has to abide, they finally do. This somehow negates every other time the government has come knocking and been told to fuck off? They tried, the courts said they had to do it, so they did. If they didn't, the service would be gone now.
To anyone saying she tried to run over the officer, please watch the body cam footage. She is turning the wheel as much as possible to steer the vehicle away from the officer. On top of that, she pulled forward very slowly. If you were trying to run someone over, you would not give them every opportunity to avoid being hit by the vehicle.
I'm gonna start by saying Twitter doesn't respect your privacy, this we all should know. However, I don't think this is what you think.
You're reading an RSS feed that Linux Handbook publishes to. They published something and likely published it elsewhere at the same (or similar) times. It shows up in your feed, and you're reading it. At the same time, their post on Twitter has propagated to the point where followers are being notified and the algorithm is sending notifications to people that might be interested in it. You get a notification from Twitter. Panik
It's just a coincidence, and being skeptical has rotted your brain. Sometimes shit do just be like that. Everyone in privacy oriented communities has had this happen at some point, and because of how we think we end up feeling like it's malicious.
Just be rich and pay the extra yearly fee so you don't gotta pay as much per install. Duh
