Disable JS in 2025 does NOT work. Petty much every site only works properly with JS, with some exceptions.

JS is a core part of the modern web experience. 10 years go MAYBE Noscript would work, I never bothered, you end up having to whitelist a bunch of sites anyway even 10 years ago.

I actually have the opposite problem. I think it would help me if I would act MORE like I was, well I would not say famous but like promoting stuff, talking about it. Marketing myself and by business, just "presenting" myself.

It does not help someone create the greatest thing ever in silence when nobody will ever know about it.

I did not really need a reminder that this website is filled with morons, just like Reddit. But I get it anyway every time I post something negative.

Remind me when anything more than a slap in the wrist happens. And my definition of slap on the wrist is adjusted to how big Meta actually is, they make more than some countries!

You just hate facts, just like the idiots on Reddit, I am supposed to praise big tech criminals and just make positive stuff up, then I get all the upvotes.

Here is what is going to happen:

1. Nobody will care in 10 days. 2. They will get a slap on the wrist at best.

Reminds me of Google driving around in StreetView cars, hacking and capturing all wifi traffic they could get their hands on. Did anything happen? Of course not!

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2010/may/15/google-ad... https://www.wired.com/2012/05/google-wifi-fcc-investigation/

The guardian says "open" networks, apart from the fact that in 2010 networks were not secured by default in many cases. I think WEP 1 was a thing and easily hacked, and I would not be surprised if they were actually Wardriving, on the largest scale ever.

Took WAY too long. And you still need a phone number to sign up. Wire (that uses the Signal Protocol and also has video chat never needed your phone number AFAIK)

Also, Signal loves to claim how secure it is, but they will never dare to tell you that participating in the Android and mainstream mobile systems nobody is secure. Especially not on Google Play. If the government wants to spy on you, they WILL! It does not matter if they can't decrypt your messages because they will be sucking the data right off your phone with invisible screenshots and AI transcribing the text or by other means like key logging. There are people who claim Pegasus does not even need you to click on some link anymore, all they need is your phone number. And Pegasus is for sure not the only thing out there.

Signal and others create the illusion of privacy, there is no privacy on any smartphone with any kind of mainstream OS. Probably not even on the "hardened" de-googled Android forks.

How does Ad nauseum solve this? It seems you failed to understand this technical issue. Ad nauseam is build on uBlock and suffers from the same issues does it not? I have not looked into it, but it seems it's a technical limitation that lets connections go through b4 an extension is fully loaded and hooked in to be able to block them. So just by my common sense, a fork of UBO would suffer from the same issue.

Did he not do or say something super woke? Maybe I mix him up with someone else. Anyway, always good when the woke stuff hits some walls. But of course only a very established senior who has nothing to fear and speaks out.
