It appears Google is going full evil. We cannot update our browser extension.... because it has too many privacy features. @googledevs @ChromiumDev wtf? This was a response to an appeal of an earlier rejection.

Regulation is not coming to save you. Governments love that corporations spy on you. Because then they can get the data without a warrant. It’s the backdoor to the Fourth Amendment.
Those who claim expertise and then deride that which they have no understanding of. aka: More Fake Experts. More damage caused. Last few weeks I've seen a few posts of people criticizing Password Notebooks. I saw one fellow--a cybersecurity comedian--post how unbelievable and…



For the first 5 years of his new contract, Juan Soto is making $60,000,000/year. If he plays 150 games/year and bats 4 times/game -> $100,000 per at bat. Feels like a jump-the-shark moment. #baseball #mets #yankees #soto
