  You… suspect. So no evidence then, got it. This is how false information spreads.

  Do you have any tangible proof that you get marked as suspicious in any system?

  Also my answer is no. Also, the companies feed on people that have that pathetic outlook of “they aren’t going to stop collecting data”. You can still take measures to protect your privacy and mitigate your information from being farmed. Granted you won’t be 100% unless you are living off grid and away from human contact, but that doesn’t mean you should cuck out to the data farmers.

  I think I’ll just go to RadioShack and solder my own board. Every company is shit these days. 😔

  ASrock is ASUS. I don’t trust their quality. They are on the same level to me as Razer products. The lowest of the low in quality assurance.

  This is purely anecdotal but my last pc build was ASUS mobo and its absolute shit tier. I promised myself never to spend another dime on anything ASUS ever again.

  I got it cause it had good reviews. Asus ROG strix. I should have stuck with my gut and gone MSI or Gigabyte.

  On iPhone it’s just pressing any of the volume buttons once. It will mute the ringer and let it go to voicemail.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Customer is mistakenly accused of text spamming for repeatedly replying STOP to political texts⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly what I do. Don’t respond and I just block and report.

  I do the same for phone calls from unknown numbers. I just press the volume button to mute the ringer and let it time out. If you hang up or pickup you get added to the list as active.
