That’s a broad leap no? Giants rise and fall. Look at betamax, BlockBuster, Kodak, etc
There’s always going to be something better out there, as long as you’re still looking and leaving the old post. Chin up!

Not at all what I meant. The premise was that this wouldn’t happen if they were being paid fairly. Supply chain attacks happen with or without fair pay.
Look at what happened with the XZ backdoor. Whether or not they’re getting paid just means a different door is opened.
The root of the problem is that we blindly trust anyone based on name-brand and popularity. That has never in the existence of technology been a reliable nor an effective means of authentication.
If it’s not outright buying out companies it will be vulnerabilities/lack of appropriate management, if it’s not vulns it’ll be insider threat.
These are problems we’ve known about for at least a decade+ and we’ve done fuck all to address the root of the problem.
Never trust, always verify. Simple as that.
… he made plenty off the product and made additional when he sold. Devs ability to make money has nothing to do with companies coming in and injecting malware to the service.
Any threat actor group with sufficient funds from various campaigns, spyware, etc could use said funds to buy out a dev, owner, etc.
Not to mention state-sponsored threat actors. This is the perfect example of distracting from the fact of what happened.
Good catch! Missed that one
Because it exposes root and system internals. Biggest reason android devices get compromised/hacked and your fun, quirky android becomes a link in a bot net peddling god knows what including attacks against people and other illegal activities and media
For anyone interested - I’d you are using umatrix to block shit you can punch these lines into a new text file and import as blocklist, then commit it with the tiny arrow that points left toward the permanent list to save it permanently:

Remove the square brackets before saving the file - these are here to prevent hyperlinks and misclicks.
Edit: this is not a bulleted list, every line must start with an asterisk, just in case your instance doesn’t update edits made to comments quickly.
Edit2: added new IOCs
Edit3: MOAR IOCS FOR THE HOARDE
This has almost nothing to do with what you’re talking about.
A Chinese company bought the domain and the service in February and are attacking people in highly specific conditions. (Mobile devices at specific times)
This is an attack. Not negligence, not an uh oh oopsie woopsie fucky wucky. Attack.
Intuit uses pollyfill… and a lot of people use that service.
Cloudflare and fastly wouldn’t be setting up mirrors if it weren’t still being used, I can guarantee that.
You’re purposefully dancing around the point.
You’re claiming religious people are more social than anyone else. That’s a ridiculous claim and you know it.
Not going to spend anymore time engaging in your games lol
I haven’t generalize anything - I was speaking of this specific instance but see whatever you want to see ig
Ah okay, we’re on the same page now - you were referring to their last bit, not necessarily the first when speaking of Einstein. That lines up with what I knew about his beliefs
Your first sentence. What actual statistical evidence do you have for this.
Victimized ✅
Logical fallacy of ignorance ✅
Ignores the atrocities and genocide committed in the name of “religion” ✅
You are quite literally the pot calling the kettle black with your “small minded” comment. Nobody here was persecuting religion, but specific implementations that have committed mass murder, or engage in obnoxious displays (screaming at people at events (some events designed to support groups of people), going door to door, shaming vulnerable people trying to get medical procedures, etc etc)
The day you widen your view to see others perspectives and history of abuse is the day you’ll actually be on the right “religious” track. Humanity is the religion.
I like this explanation most
Based on what evidence lmao
Classic.
How do you know that the real creator(s) are documented?
You’ve been threatened and Stockholm’d through fear, likely as a child or when vulnerable into seeing 1 alternative, when the alternatives are infinite
Okay but here in the real world, those making the claim have the burden of proof.
This is a classic, literally text book example of the logical fallacy of ignorance.
Invisible unicorns exist, and because you can’t disprove it, we should build unicorn fences.
The logic doesn’t follow.
It’s an important social event for teenagers. It affords a time for teens to dress up and look extra nice and make some coming of adult age decisions like asking your crush to dance, abstaining from peer pressure, etc.
It’s an event for teens to be feel special, have fun and to exercise self control. College comes quickly after and a lot of them are studying for finals and so on so it’s a good way to blow off steam.
Ultimately, just another cultural implementation. Other countries have similar events I can only imagine
I mean, my point still stands but if we want to talk about semantics - are you saying betamax wasn’t a giant?
Obviously they entered the vhs war and lost, but after that it was pretty much downhill for the rest of their company and products. They were a big name brand and crashed out by entering a war they ultimately lost. That’s all I’m tryin to get at
