  It’s a service. It doesn’t just run in the browser.

  Noo! I loved Pocket. It’s integrated into my Kobo eReader. It was the only good way to get articles easily synced on to an eReader. I hope Kobo buys Pocket. Or Rakuten, since that’s a tech company and they own Kobo.

  He was sentenced to prison for that crime. It wasn’t part of his sentence for everyone to impose their own abuses and disrespects on top of that.

  That’s stuff comes on the regular release cycle. Chrome and Firefox are both on a release every 4 weeks.

  Yeah, Netflix knows I’m watching Stranger Things. But afaik they don’t sell that information. And even if they do, there’s still reason for this company to try to get it themselves for cheaper. And they know something else about you based on these crappy apps they’re embedded in. So that’s all extra data points they can cross reference and get even more data.

  If it’s trying to figure out if you’re watching Stranger Things it can look for when your stationary at home and just needs to record a few seconds at a time every few minutes. I don’t know how the fingerprinting works. It might be able to run locally and not use a ton of power. We’re talking Shazam, not full text transcription.

  Can we talk about how screwed up that streak notification is? Let’s encourage people who show signs of unhealthy usage of the platform to further their addiction?

  You have a 300 day streak of using heroin, don’t stop now!

  This. Use bullets or bold each question so the number of questions is clear before each question is fully read.

  Sounds like that’s exactly what they’re trying to do.
