Yo peeps, I'm currently looking into TCF Vendors, Ad partners and their whole corporate greed hellhole of tracking.

And completely randomly today got an email from them about data retention, assuming this is one of those "important" emails they have to send out. Sadly, years...

Google Allows Creditors to Brick Your Phone ( lemmy.world )
I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they're on a whitelist.

Copilot misses the question, elaborates on topic I was speaking aloud instead. ( lemmy.world )
Was using my SO's laptop, I had been talking (not searching, or otherwise typing) about some VPN solutions for my homelab, and had the curiosity to use the new big copilot button and ask what it can do. The beginning of this context was actually me asking if it can turn off my computer for me (it cannot) and I ask this....
Android offering privacy by profiling and sharing app ussage info? ( lemmy.world )
I might have misunderstood this but is Android really trying to push this as tracking as a privacy upgrade, simply because it let's us choose which of our interests we want advertisers to have access to?

Do you guys even know of Adblock Plus? ( lemdro.id )
I literally haven't seen anyone even mention it anywhere on the internet as if it never existed, when it comes to Ad blockers I always see uBO recommended with absolutely no mention whatsoever of ABP why? What makes it better than ABP? What happened to it? or maybe I'm wrong and ABP is not as well known as I think it is....
