I was going to complain in the comments that the article doesn't mention anything about lockdown mode on iOS, but thankfully this eff one does. Thanks for sharing a superior article!

Back when I had Amazon smile, the donations went to the EFF. This makes me happy it went to a worthy cause.

Smile only existed to bleed referral revenues away from search engines. Once enough people started using their app directly they no longer needed smile to make them skip referrers.

Which search engines would do that?
