@0x6a6f73687561 @itsfoss Yeah. Anyway, it's weird that they didn't do progressive rollout.
@itsfoss If anyone is wondering, Fossify is the replacement fork of Simple Mobile Tools after the latter got sold to a shady company.
@fosstastic @itsfoss Firefox aimed to test attribution *without* tracking. It's like putting in a discount code inside a newspaper ad and counting how many people used the code. You only know the total count, not who used the code or what they are interested in.
@ChuckMcManis @noelreports Plays just fine in Firefox on Linux.
Software patents are cancer, fortunately we don't have them in EU.
@itsfoss @protonprivacy Since it's running locally, I don't have a problem with it. I'm not sure how useful it would be though.
@itsfoss Arch is quite boring nowadays and that's good.
@noelreports They look malnourished.
@noelreports What video did Azov publish?
@pastor @panoptykon Można samodzielnie hostować serwer analityki, np. Matomo.
@Hawaii @eff @cooperq @theverge GrapheneOS is a security-focused alternative smartphone operating system (Android variant), which claims to protect against Cellebrite (among other threats). Currently it only supports several Google Pixel devices; its developers say that it's because most other manufacturers don't take security seriously enough and often apply only the bare minimum of security patches.
@purism I have no idea who is the target customer, but probably not your existing laptop/tablet/smartphone user base.
@cuchaz Preventing ad companies from tracking each user would be great. The problem is that you need to trust the aggregation service (which doesn't get any personal data, but still gets ad visibility and site conversion data).
@itsfoss It's opt-in, so I don't mind it, but feels kinda useless. Could be more useful if it supported running the models locally.
@Walter8100000 @noelreports Poland still has a lot of Soviet-era equipment in active service. Tanks, IFVs, helicopters and more... It's trying to replace them, but it takes time and money.
@noelreports Doesn't BNR stand for the "Belgorod People's Republic" meme?
@urwumpe @noelreports Soldiers do, but regular people don't. This was on TV, so aimed at the latter.
@margual56 @edri Platforms can still offer ads that are contextually relevant, for example, yarn ads when browsing crocheting content.
@t3sserakt @eff @Taler Interesting, thanks for info.
