Netflix has managed to annoy a good number of its users with an announcement about an upcoming update to its Windows 11 (and Windows 10) app: support for adverts and live events will be added, but the ability to download content is being taken away....
who the hell would ever use the Netflix windows app? And for that matter, at this late date, who the hell is still paying for Netflix to actually watch what little is still on there?
what browser is as good at fingerprint-spoofing besides brave? I mean…Librewolf is pretty good at making its fingerprint look like all the others…as long as the letterboxing is turned on and you don’t adjust the ratio of the window a unique way
That other chromium based browser Vivaldi…I think that’s how it’s spelled, does that have fingerprint protection? does it have it’s own anonymous way of setting up a sync account?
never use the youtube app, for stuff like that on your smart TV, you need something like iVPN on your router with the “restrictive” setting on the anti-tracker and then you need “adguard home” connected to your home wifi too. it’s a device you have to buy that has adguard in it, not sure how it works.
ublock origin, brave with aggressive adblocking and adguard for desktop with some kind of adblocking DNS
and then, you will finally be able to enjoy websites without any bullshit.
It wasn’t always like this. it used to be the case that one form of adblocking was enough. And I really want the internet to go back to the way it was 15 or 16 years ago when you didn’t need to be careful about what you said online and keeping windows machines secure was simple as long as you knew what to get.
Is the laser on the Wurkkos HD01 safe to use to play with pets? I’ve got a dog that loves to chase the laser but my Nebo Slim+ 1200 died when it fell off of my backpack strap.
Edit: I asked the author about IR and they got 2.1mW@1064nm, with the caveat that the laser power meter may not be very precise at low power levels. That’s probably not dangerous.
so even if it has a little bit of IR, it’s still not dangerous if it accidently reflects off something and hits someone in the eye?
what wattage does it have to get up to to be dangerous?
Okay, I just used brave search to ask what wattage of lasers are dangerous, the figures you gave me don’t seem to be dangerous as long as there’s no prolonged exposure.

“OH GOD! HERE! TAKE IT!”
Still not as bad as that time Verizon handed over their customer’s data to some idiot that said he was an FBI agent. And in case it wasn’t obvious, he was a fraud and he didn’t have anything that looked like an official warrant either.
freedom to express views contrary to community, government, etc without retaliation
Actually…forcing everyone to dox themselves will prevent that, which is why all of the worst candidates want to do it.
Anyone who’s gay or trans, or even if they just have left wing political views…everyone who hates them will know exactly who they are and where they are.
That’s unsafe in ALL circumstances. The only one who should get to decide who reveals your real location should be you and you should have full control over who you reveal it to.
