Exactly what I was thinking!

AdGuard. You can get a lifetime license through stack social for anywhere between $16-$30. It also does HTTPS filtering.

From a media perspective, I am inclined to agree; however, like the article said, the experiences of these devices are getting worse for seemingly no reason. Personally, I’m inclined to believe NVIDIA may not make another device like the shield because of the focus on AI and chips. I’d imagine these devices make little profit compared to all the money being made with the current focus on AI.

I don’t really like the lock downed experience of Apple’s ecosystem, but the software updates make these devices, particular the Apple TV, better every year.

Niether are open source, but the full versions of AdGuard for each platform, Adguard Public DNS and DuckDuckGo.

When it comes to streaming devices, nothing beats Apple TV in my opinion.

Outside the Apple TV app itself, the OS has very little ads. The only thing I dislike about it is the lack of Kodi + Google Drive plug in, but Infuse Pro works.

If your browser supports PWAs, I’d reccomend that over the electron app you linked. You’d get better performence, and it would be snappier.

I’d rather directly use Bing and utilize the ‘Give with Bing’ feature to donate to a non-profit of choice; when I did use Bing, I did it for LGBT and LGBT Youth.

Asked how likely big companies would be to abuse their data, Americans were most wary of TikTok (59 percent), followed by: Meta (56 percent), X/Twitter (49 percent), OpenAI (48 percent), Google (44 percent), Apple (41 percent), Amazon (40 percent), Microsoft (38 percent), Comscore (32 percent), and Adobe (31 percent).

I’m surprised people trust Microsoft and Amazon more than Apple; Amazon needs all the data they can get on you to build “better” profiles on what to sell you, ties your Alexa requests to feed advertising (you can opt out) and Microsoft, especially with Edge (post advertising and services team takeover) has been trying to send everything to Microsoft to feed both ads and their AI. FFS, even Outlook warns you now that they’ll share your data with >800 “partners”.

Apple is no saint, far from it, but people trust a conglomerate over it?

What does this have to do with privacy?

Websites that aren’t updated live themselves; typically news websites and the like.

Users like this is exactly why you don’t need a VPN; you clearly have no understanding of how they work.

/r/Piracy is just a bunch of memes, and this community actively talks about piracy, it’s ethical philosophy and taking control over your media. There are people who pirate everything regardless of circumstances, but for the most part, I’d argue its people who have been burnt by companies whom they trusted.

I always saw this as just a way to compete with Google.

Bad comparison. There is no such thing as the ‘Apple Pay app’. Everything is done through the Wallet app, Apple Pay uses the wallet app.
