The American way

Oh gosh, that's even worse than I thought. Nothing like getting doxxed by your social media app; glad I left insta some time ago.

AFAIK the new update makes it so your current location is shared with every post, by default, rather than just being something you can do if you feel like it

There's a bionic reader extension for Firefox that works on mobile, but obvs that only works on webpages

Who is this made for?

Pretty sure it's fine if they do as long as they don't have chocolate or smth in them

This is what made me a data hoarder - lost one too many important documents and now I have 12TB of files on my home PC, mirrored across 2 drives and backed up to a 3rd in a fireproof safe. Everything from last year's tax documents to high school homework assignments, it's all there. I may have a problem...

I mean from my tests it does seem to work, tho I also just straight-up nuke Copilot in its entirety when setting Win11 up

In Win11 Pro/Enterprise, this can be disabled via Group Policy alongside most other tracking and logging "features". In corporate environments, it often is. Their primary target here is individual consumers.

On the other hand, even on Home edition you can at least disable this yourself with a few registry tweaks or by using a tool like DoNotSpy11. I highly recommend checking it out if you're forced to use Windows but want some semblance of privacy.

I was told specifically to give them a second chance at the assignment for 50% credit. No disciplinary action was taken on the part of the administration with the justification that "if they really don't know the material they'll fail the final."

So no, it's just as bad in higher education here.
