I think we might agree on the last part, but that's exactly the point of my comment. If these people are suing Google for privacy invasion tactics, all the more power to them.

But the headline infers the opposite: "lawsuit over ‘incognito mode’ tracking". This reads like the plaintiffs don't understand what this "incognito mode" actually does.

Am I reading this right? As far as I can see, the complaint seems to be that Google would be "tracking" people even if they browse in any browser's incognito mode.

Of course they do. If I open a private window in Firefox, and then login to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, or any other website, these websites can try to track me. How would any browser control what happens or doesn't happen on the server side of things?

These plaintiffs would be better off sueing the companies of these websites for ignoring privacy laws and continuing to add tracking scripts to their sites.

Yes, there are browsers that try to send as little personal information as possible, like the Tor Browser, but even that one can't disable a Facebook server's internal logging data - how could it? All modern browsers make it quite clear what their respective incognito mode does - and what it doesn't do.

Yes, you can always rent one when you need it.

If you need to tow something that heavy once a year, you are not buying a car for that.

"A lot of people"

Translation: "no one, it was me"

Ich wundere mich wirklich über dieses Zitat aus dem ~~Artikel~~ Bilderbuch

„Die Sonne hat etwas geblendet, [...]“

Das heißt, wenn die Sonne etwas blendet, brettere ich munter weiter ins Ungewisse?

12ft.io funktioniert bei manchen JS-Seiten nicht richtig, die den Inhalt erst verzögert nachladen. hier eine Alternative: https://archive.is/nlRWb

It's been almost 3 years, and a full load will last about 2 days. That said, I only use it intermittently throughout the day, and not for gaming or watching videos. That's what other devices are for.

Cheers! I hope my 4a survives until there's another one of that size. I feels like most other phones are getting unnecessarily bigger. The camera software is a big plus, too

Now you see why the people at Hogwarts have a big feast every other day. And I don't recall the more corpulent ones using that much magic

Habe ich das richtig gehört, dass die Controller per Bluetooth mit dem U-Boot verbunden sind?! Ja, es scheint Ersatz zu geben, aber wenn ich überlege, wie oft hier die Batterie eines Gerätes einfach mal schwach macht, oder die Verbindung abbricht, oder die Verbindung gar nicht erst hergestellt werden kann...

Haha, that's a really good replacement until I find the one I am looking for. The image I'm thinking of really showed a boy, not a grown man.
