Poor man’s TOR :).
It’s not completely inconceivable that ISPs using CG-NAT could keep logs that would allow these users to be deanonymized, but it’s an extra step and they might not have enough information between the Reddit and ISP logs to do it. But… they’d have to be talking to the ISPs anyway, and the ISPs will probably cooperate?
“Maybe one of the smaller countries… like the Vatican! … Wait.”
… But, you brought this example up? :(
So, would you be in favour of serving only vegetarian or vegan meals, then, which a larger portion of the population could eat?
There’s surprisingly few standalone email clients for normal people on desktop platforms as far as I know.
It’s really funny (in a good way!) that you somehow missed the whole step counter thing and thought people are manually counting steps, haha. But yeah, as others have mentioned phones can act like pedometers, and this is also one of the main features people use on Apple Watches and fitbits and stuff (along with the heart rate sensor on those devices). It’s kind of useful to just get a sense of how active you are throughout the day, and having a step goal can be a nice little motivator to get out of the house sometimes.
The thing that always bothers me about people saying consoles are a good deal as the hardware is cheap compared to a PC is just that it gets more expensive really quickly with software. Particularly if you get a digital only console it only takes a few games until you’re at the price of a PC. I just can’t justify buying a locked down system anymore.
There is potentially a world in which you want to see ads because ads themselves do technically provide a service. You do want to know about things you care about and would want to buy… you just don’t want it obnoxiously shoved into your face all of the time in psychologically manipulative ways.
I mean… Couldn’t rounding be considered a technicality?
HAHA. I did the same thing in Canada with the national anthem for the same reason. Refused to stand for it or sing it. Some teachers would lose their SHIT. Like… grow up. I don’t want to sing the theme song, why care?
Do you get upset everytime you see it?
This is an issue sometimes. It's not great when suddenly there's no sidewalk and you're walking alongside a busy road. That said, I don't think this is the main contributor. I think people are just in the habit of driving everywhere to the point where they won't walk 15 minutes from their house to a convenience store and will opt to drive instead, and this is in neighbourhoods with good sidewalks and no particularly busy roads. People just don't think about walking as a means to get anywhere and they'll frequently drive just a couple of blocks if they're going to visit somebody nearby too, in my experience anyway.
