This should be the top comment.

OP, how about you're more transparent next time?

... but it isn't able to tell anyone, as it is not connected to the Internet. Poor smart TV.

I'm using FairEmail on Android. When tapping a link, thr app detects tracking parameters and offers to remove them. I really like that feature and wish other apps would offer something similar.

I believe Spotify is doing something similar.

Would be nice if social networks and messengers would automatically strip these parameters.

They should've sent out something healthy, like fruits - for example, an apple.

Guns without a serial number. They are untraceable.

Since the company that manufactures usually is different from the loyalty card provider, it's probably safe to just take a screenshot of the loyalty app with the card being visible, and then just using that screenshot during checkout.

Even if you do not plan on actually cashing in on the benefits (which, if you shared the card, might be considered fraud), just presenting the card and creating random and unusable profiles could be a fun thing.

Personally, I would only consider using these screenshot for cash transactions, as credit card payments might be traced back to you.

"I'm fine, thanks. Who are you?"

Is that the same government that keeps a backlog of zero-day exploits to spy on people?

We need to move from offense (keeping exploits/bugs a secret, keeping systems vulnerable, hacking other countries/people) to defense (keeping our citizens' systems secure, being legally required to disclose vulnerabilities so that they can be fixed).

You cannot complain about "the Chinese/Russians/Marsians) are hacking us!!1!" when it is at least partially your fault that they are able to do so in the first place.

This applies to a lot of governments, not just the US.
