While I’m on the ad-blocking, alternative-browser-using side of the divide, I don’t really think it’s just two distinct experiences. It’s a whole range. I’m not going to disable JavaScript; it’s useful. I’m not going to never make accounts. I’m not going to eschew online ordering. Privacy and security are always a spectrum; it’s not binary.

Except Google is working hard on making it one.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
