  A hacker group with connections to China maintained unnoticed access to the computer network of the Eindhoven-based chip manufacturer NXP for over two years.

  I’m surpsied (but obviously shouldn’t be) that that many potential users would instantly bounce off Firefox instead of changing the default search engine.

  In Canada. Yes they do. See my comment here: lemmy.world/comment/4958540

  Yes. Often an add on. In Canada, it’s especially the case with koodo (telus’ “discount” brand) or lum (sasktel’s).

  E.g., www.koodomobile.com/en/rate-plans

  Pick 1 FREE Perk (available in Self Serve) Premium Voicemail Unlimited International SMS (from Canada) Rollover Data

  It happens on device before your carrier. So you don’t have to pay for voicemail. Big unexpected surprise for me (as I don’t have vm). Otherwise it’s on the fly and instant. Thought I wouldn’t care but sending unknow callers there is slick.

  Nope. I’m a new convert and I love it. Laptop monitor to the left of the big landscape for random screens. It’s fantastic

  I don’t understand what this provides. They already make it so you don’t have to give out credit card info. Is it just to avoid bank fees in some way? Avoid banking regulation?

  Detecting real video as fake seems problematic where it might lead to apathy – folks just don’t believe any video anymore. Similar to Trump’s “everything is fake news” approach
