I swear they haven't added a single fucking feature that is worth anything. Every single thing they do makes their product worse.

This is exactly the kind of shit I don't ever want my fucking computer doing. You don't need to track shit. You do what I tell you and then you shut the fuck up.

Meanwhile you can bypass uac(as an admin user) using the fucking help window. They're all over the place.

Their terms require a phone so yes, on their terms. Why would they make an exception for anyone?

Their captive portal requires wifi and thats all that matters. And why would they want to deal with paper agreements for WiFi?

You don't have to be a member to use WiFi, someone else could have given you the password if there even is one, so ya even if you did agree when signing up it would make sense to still require that.

I implement these kind of setups including a couple libraries and while I would have Ethernet ports available if within budget, I would not allow you to bypass captive portal, the agreement, or traffic filtering. I don't care what you are doing but I am required to try not to allow easy access to questionable content. If someone is doing something illegal it's gonna involve the library if you get caught (that's why the phone number but maybe they are just being shitty with it). Not worth the risk. Also a lot of those decisions are made by a board so being upset with the staff won't accomplish anything. Wifi is cheap, pulling cable can be very costly in comparison and depending on building type can be hard, damaging or, not feasible. Those ports could also be broken because people don't respect shit, that could also be the reason for their reaction.

This is all I got for you, good luck but if you want your privacy you're likely going to have to go somewhere else.

You can use it but on their terms. Your privacy doesnt mean anything to them, they are protecting themselves. Captive portal is likely making you agree to not abuse the service.

Also you're choosing not to participate which is fair but they don't need to support that.

Up and down preferably, anything else is just worse.

Otherwise overridable by user preference would be great.

It's short for charisma and you use it if you have none.

Good.

There's malware all over that site, you download from known good uploaders or roll the dice.

There is no such thing as a safe torrent site.

They value their customers privacy.

World of tanks and it's less terrible version but ugly mobile version blitz. The company actively despises it's playerbase, and I want to play a game like it but they all give up and copy them.

Armoured warfare was fun until they turned it into a clone with co-op. War thunder is more realistic and that's cool but mostly just annoying.

I just want more tank games that are fun to play and not microtransaction driven.
