A penny saved is still a penny saved. I’m not saying it would amount to much, but it is non-zero.

Depends on how much traffic you’re talking about. Encrypting/decrypting isn’t free.

Avoiding shorts is a feature IMO

I’m not claiming that it was “intuitive”, just that the browser did tell the user exactly what the add-on was allowed to do. Sure, Chrome and Firefox deserve some blame for not making the warning more explicit/dire, but they did make an attempt. Overwriting cookies and rewriting affiliate links are subsets of “access your data”.

Also, I’m not claiming that I knew exactly what Honey was doing, just that I suspected it was shady and recommended no one use it.

It wasn’t “uncovered” though. This is their business model. I’ve told every person I know using Honey for years that it’s a shady extension and they should stop using it. Unfortunately I don’t have a huge following to offset Honey’s massive ad spend.

I’m not calling anyone stupid, but stop treating this like it’s new information. Your browser warned you this might happen when you installed the extension:

I think you meant to reply to the parent comment?

Vaccines protect the workforce and allow individuals to produce more. People being against vaccines cannot be good for capitalism, can it?

But you couldn’t release your own projects based on this under pure MIT or Apache-2.0. Presumably you’d need to include the same restriction about selling on Atlassian’s marketplace.

This requires an Apple iPhone XR or newer, as the face scan utilizes the TrueDepth sensor.

I’d rather take a plaster mold of my face than have to use a specific phone to order a VR headset.

Right? That’s the thing. Car thieves don’t care if the tool is illegal; they’re already planning on stealing a car.

If you make the tool illegal, you’re just making it harder for security experts who do care about the law.

Yes we should allow them, because the problem isn’t that this tool is available. The problem is that cars and other devices aren’t more secure.

If you broke into a bank vault with a screwdriver, you don’t ban screwdrivers; you get mad at the bank.

You use cards for offline authentication (bars/festivals/etc.), and use a different process for online authentication.

Proving someone has the physical card in their possession (which is what a reader does) isn’t really useful for proving identity when you can’t also check the picture.

Pine and BeagleBoard have some decent options, but they’ll always be more expensive than rpi because of the economy of scale.

And? You believe Meta/Google should have waited to block links?

Canadian government’s news link tax is preventing Canadians from sharing vital information about the wildfires ripping through western Canada

Let’s place blame where blame is due.

Eventually “passing the cost on to consumers” increases the price so much that the deceptive printers cost more than legitimate ones.

Flipping a bit in software doesn’t cost Tesla anything, the hardware is already installed.

It would be totally different if Tesla didn’t install the hardware by default, and you had to pay to have it put in.
