It would work as well as “Do not track me” HTTP header.

smileyhead , to android in Apple's called Android a "massive tracking device" in an internal presentation

The difference is that Google is collecting everything, while Apple can collect everything.

Also, Android is not a “device”.

Android and iOS are a massive tracking operating systems. Stick to deGoogled Android and Linux on mobile.

smileyhead , to technology in FCC to propose a minimum 100mbps to qualify as broadband, with a future goal of 1gbps

I know why they do that, lack of v4 space and other reasons. Why we need to push forward with such legislations.

My ISP have full IPv6 support, but block all traffic via firewall…

It should also require allowing incoming connections. Too much ISPs, especially mobile, are gives one-way Internet now. Basically like having a phone line with no phone number.

smileyhead , to technology in Petition demands that Microsoft extends Windows 10 support

Linux kernel is huge, I bet it has support for more audio devices than Windows or MacOS, as it is used not only on PCs.

When at the backstage to find where people are grouping for protest.

smileyhead , to technology in Intel doesn’t think that Arm CPUs will make a dent in the laptop market

Windows as always turn out to be the main villain.

smileyhead , to technology in Google paid a whopping $26.3 billion in 2021 to be the default search engine everywhere

That’s called innovation in capitalism.

smileyhead , to android in A potential alternative to "app installs"

Linux mobile!

On my Linux desktop I have houndres of GUI apps, no slowdowns, nothing running in the background without knowleadge. It’s just a disk space. Programs/apps can be uninstalled with keeping their data, so on later install it’s still there.

And can we stop making separate apps for loyality cards or taxi networks, please? We need to keep programs universal. I don’t want an app for [insert company] [insert name of their “smart” home product], I want protocols and standards.

That someone was Microsoft 😆.

smileyhead , to linux in THUNDERBIRD: the SUCCESS STORY of LINUX! - 6.4M in Donations

No, it was not about privacy. From privacy standpoint there is no difference from email client running in browser or on desktop, both can have trackers and in both we need to trust the source. There are even selfhosted web email clients like RoundCube or Nextcloud Mail, that I use too but really rare.

May I ask the opposite? Why use JavaScript client from the web instead of desktop ones?

Most operating systems, excluding Windows, are shipping with decent native and fast email client. They are automatically updated with the system, again excluding Windows, integrate with other apps (for ex. right-click and share with mail), can store messages offline just in case and are overall nicer to use.

The only use case I think of is when using someone’s else computer and you don’t want to remember to log out, because browsers have “incognito” mode.

smileyhead , to technology in Microsoft now pops up a poll asking why you'd want to use another browser when you download Chrome

As web browsers are now free in price, if they are not privacy and freedom oriented the only way to promote them is by nagging and force.
