  Thank you this answers my question!

  TLDR basically the size and frequency of data being sent to and from a website acts like a digital fingerprint even if ISPs can’t see what’s in those data packets. Looks like there’s an easy fix by having VPNs add random background noise data.

  Can anyone ELI5? From what I’m understanding all this does is give them an idea how many people are using VPNs? If that’s all why is using AI necessary?

  Yeah it took me a while to get used to swiping to go back but I think I prefer it now.

  I was a lifelong android user, mostly pixels, and switched to a an iPhone 14 pro 4 years ago. This is the first phone I’ve had that’s lasted 3+ years, that’s never crashed, and still runsas quickly and smoothly as when I bought it. Apple would have to seriously fuck something up for me to ever go back to an android.

  I mean honestly filthy boomer to a screenshot is kind of hilarious.

  There has got to be some satisfaction watching the US crumble

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. I was going to say I feel like people have a lot of “legitimate” reasons to be negative right now, at least in America. Our mental health has been tried.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should you look for a relationship if it feels like a compromise?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel exactly the same way you do. It’s incredibly rare for me to find anyone I’d even consider dating. I’d rather just fuck and go. I’m upfront about what I want and try my best not to lead people on and for the most part it’s worked out well for me. But I’m gay and the beautiful thing about being gay is we’ve figured out we don’t have to conform to heterosexual relationship norms.

  I think in the straight community it’s a little more challenging, but not impossibleI think the important thing is so keep your integrity during the process. Respect the people you’re hooking up with, don’t lead them on, and cut them off when you see they might not be able to handle a hookup only situation. That last part sounds cruel but it’s in their best interest.

  Boy and girl cats grow up??

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I resigned to my last job and now I need to talk to my former boss to get the job back. Any recommendations?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m confused. So you do or don’t need her approval? Because you’re saying both things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I need to tell you something unsatisfying: your personal consumption choices will not make a meaningful difference to the amount of enshittification you experience in your life⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think maybe the wording in your title is throwing people off because as a lot of people are pointing out we CAN make make choices that limit the amount of enshittification we experience in our own lives. Seems like what you’re trying to say is choosing not to support enshittification doesn’t stop companies from continuing enshittification.
