“hmm, the smell of cancer, addiction and poverty!”

“User connects via VPN XYZ” is part of the fingerprint. It doesn’t protect you from identifying you, instead it ads to the number of unique properties of your computer and connection, adding to the size of your fingerprint. Besides, a lot of VPNs and proxies add another header x-forwarded-for with your original IP. Source: I worked on multiple e-commerce platforms that use fingerprinting as part of their fraud protection. Also see https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/learn for a more detailed explanation.

Doesn’t matter, your browser will be fingerprinted with some embedded JavaScript that works in all modern browsers.

Consoles don’t make money, the expensive games and subscriptions do.

Doesn’t even register that you created or deleted a file in the explorer window that’s open, instead you have to refresh it with F5 to see the changes, like it’s some sort of web app from the 1990s. Pretty sure older windows explorer versions would update the view when files changed…

Why? At least I don’t have to download and install gigabytes of files for something I might only use once?

I don’t believe that you can use traditional algorithms to teach the car street driving, because there are to many different variations of intersections, traffic signs, special conditions like accidents, heavy Rain or fog, road closures or construction sites to get it right every time. Even if your autopilot is 99% correct and you drive 20000km a year, you still drive wrong 200km of it.

This doesn’t mean that AI will be better, because then you don’t even have a source code to track down where it went wrong to correct it in future updates.

Remove the user generated videos. Only title, videoads and comments allowed.

Hate someone in the office? Pour hot coffee into the container and send it to your victim.

Websites can absolutely send push notifications.

How to improve online advertising: Step 1: remove all online advertising

They will get dirty very fast, either from dirt thrown around by passing trains, or by the brake dust.

I have yet to see an app that does something a website could not do…

I don’t know, I distrust all YouTube ads content creators slide into their videos, because the products are either useless to me, disappointing in real life like the “fruit smells” rings for water bottles or sketchy with some fear mongering like the VPNs.

Fun fact: a lot of the content you see on big sites are advertorials, this means some company writes a fluff piece about how their lastest product can solve all your problems, and then pays the site to publish it. In print, you even have the option to have the ad use the same layout, fonts, colors etc. as the real content.

This means a portion of a site is not filled by content that had to be bought, but actually brings them money.

The delete account button is still there.

Not a console user, but can you actually still play games from a disc without an sony account and internet connection?

This would be a very interesting case if this ever gets to court over copyright…
