I think I would use something like this.

Interesting, there are definitely some trends benefiting saner alternatives... But are we really seeing the end of the big social media platforms as we know them? Let's wait and see.

This latest ruling from the German supreme court is rather worrying...

This move is really unsurprising... It's bound to become another channel for advertisements to try to cover the costs of running it all.

I have a hard time seeing browser makers truly drop third party cookies without pushing a worse replacement first... Still, it's nice to see the W3C take a stand in the matter.

If you wonder why more websites become confusing... It's not exactly an accident.

I guess more reviews of that book will come out. It looks like Meta and some EU politicians are even more rotten to the core than we ever suspected...

I admit I'm more and more tempted to pay for my search service as well. It's unfortunately not FOSS... But it's not like the alternative are better there either anyway.

The writing was on the wall. This is an unsurprising development but Edge users should know where it's going...

I wish other platforms would go through so much scrutiny. Still it gives a good idea about the mental health issue they collectively represent.

The TV market is really turning into a anti-consumer one.

Some more insights on the extent of the companies snitching to Facebook.

Very welcome complaont, Meta is trying to workaround the GDPR to increase paid accounts. Can only hope they get fined and that this shady practice disappear (they're not the only ones doing this).

Definitely true... never had use for more than the server logs for understanding the traffic on my blog. No need to invade the privacy of people through their browser.

Still using Chrome? What are you waiting for to change for another browser which doesn't play against your interests.

I guess it's a strategy to move more people over to Chrome. Shameful.

Good news if this really gets enforced.

Some people lash out at the wrong group... they should be angry at YouTube not at the tiny team making the extension trying to help block the ads.

This is a bad case of content moderation if it gets presented to users like this... but Google is not going to leave advertisement money on the table. The way browsers changed in recent years also make this kind of deceptions easier (harder to check certificates, hard to spot punycoding).

This is a good way to manage your website. I do the same regarding my blog, I don't do any analytics etc.
