its really funny to me how they unironically did that during the apology video today with the screwdriver

so far i’ve had good experiences with it, definitely not the most privacy focused option out there but they have a decent track record and its cheap. i think the usual advice of not putting anything super sensitive on a cloud storage service still holds, but for most things it should be fine

decided to check out of curiosity and couldn’t see the pref from the article listed in my config (im on 116.0), ~i’d imagine theres a chance it would work if manually adding that pref and setting to true but i have no idea where i could test it since i don’t use any sites that would need that pref to work.~

wonder if user agent spoofing would work, probably wouldn’t hurt to try that as well

After reading up on this some more it seems like he has plans in place to have his brother maintain the service if he can’t anymore, and even if he didn’t, the service should run until his aws subscription ends. Seems like not too big of an issue even for those who don’t use a client.
