Well as they say, you can put lipstick on a pig...

Poopy ruse? Sounds about right..

I think they meant the conjugations, like "cebula, cebuli, cebulą, cebulę, cebulami" etc..

But the part about no word for job is just plain stupid, cause we also have: praca, zatrudnienie, robota, harówa, zapierdol... That's already five.

Why do I need to sell my data? Cant I just have ads?

If you watch the whole video he does it more "for real" later on, plugging the casing into a power source to simulate a battery discharging.. Plus I've had some of these PowerCheck batteries, and they were not old, it was like... 2017? So maybe they rebooted it for a short time at some point?? Anywho, if you pressed really hard it did work I think, but also I think I was doing it wrong for a long time as well lol

Oh ok my bad

It did, see Technology Connections' latest video on it, he explains fully how it worked. Quite clever tbh.

I'd be surprised if it was just the business department...

Yeah it would. But as I said elsewhere, this is probably enough to be 'too much effort' for the majority of users, and definitely a lot more effort than it should be. I already know several people who habitually click accept all on cookie banners, and I know I have caught myself doing that a couple times too...

Hm... Was gonna try Arkenfox one of these days tbh.

There's gotta be a company address somewhere haha

Hey, my phone has 12Gb of RAM for a reason, and bookmarks are scawy...

Hm yeah perhaps. I clicked away too fast to try it 😅

Well, the fact that when there are ads, there's always like 20 of them is another issue... But yeah, I don't even care about ads but as I see it I should have a right to privacy without having to pay for it.

True, but shouldn't I be able to use it if I want to without having to choose between paying money or being spied on?

The content of a website isn't an extension of your property.

No, but it is my property which is to be used to store files that this company has put there, just so they can track me across the web to sell me more crappy shit I do not need.

So exactly how should content (regardless of how trashy it is) be funded?

With ads, but either be good and use ads that arent spyware, or let me choose to opt out of the tracky ones and use general ads instead.

Meanwhile, not visiting websites that don't meet your vision for how funding content should be done seems like a perfectly simple and reasonable approach to have for this problem.

Yup, hence why I noped outta there as soon as I saw that popup cause fuuuck that...

Yeah exactly!

Oh haha, didn't realise that pun was intended... But yeah thats right :)

Ooh you can share settings like this? Whoa...

Yeah... That's what I fear is that once one has started doing it, others will follow.
