As a kid I imagined the future as being able to hold a TV in your pocket, and flying skateboards. For the latter I guess electric scooters will have to do
I never consent to give my data away or being tracked, but how do you deal with so called legitimate interest? I tried several times to untick them but it is a long list (in fact at the bottom there is a “vendors” link with even longer, much longer list. It took me 10 minutes to get to the bottom of it once)....
Wrong, that’s Mulch. Uninstalling and deactivating Google apps is the first thing I do. Android system webview is the tricky one, but Mulch has a webview too. Still the default one manages to creep in sometimes, and deactivating it breaks things that call it specifically. Edit: there is a system webview setting under Developers tools, but Mulch’s does not appear there https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/e992ee73-1236-4c5d-a549-5e1eabd63790.jpeg
I used cromite for a while, and in general prefer it to Mulch, but I stick to it for the webview. (only way that seems to have the webview replace Google’s is to define Mulch as default browser). I still often use cromite too
I have been using Firefox focus (klar) which remembers and records nothing. Feels like a fresh install each time. But for regularly visited sites, it requires doing the consent form each time. I hope it gets extension support one day
Thank you, these were two very interesting read on the gdpr law, spirit of the law and the complexity of enforcing it (and how those data-thirsty suckers always find a way to carry on their wrongdoingds)
I was just wondering how the US (or any country really) can pull out 100 billion on a given occasion ? Is the treasury just “printing” more money, or are taxes raised? (let’s say 200million Americans are active, that’s still $500 per person) . Or is it just debt passed on to future generations? It goes without saying...
I listen to a decent amount of audiobooks and I’ll occasionally miss a one-off description of something important. I was wondering if there are projects to add a visual component to audiobooks? Official or fan-made it doesn’t matter. If it does exist what would I search for to find something like this?...
Because of smartphones, pocket TVs were never a thing.

If TikTok in the US is spun off as a separate entity, how hard would it be for the current company to put in a back door to still access the data.
