Sure but does that outweigh the costs that google was eating while using the browser as a loss leader for search and ads? I doubt they’re going to keep hosting and distributing updates from their CDN for free.
The only people who can afford to own it shouldn’t be able to buy it for the same reasons they’re forcing google to sell it.
so nothing has changed. whew, was worried for a sec
why would anyone buy it when it's primary profit-generating activity is driving traffic to google
The existence of The Hague Invasion Act kinda just lays bare that there’s not even a pretense of justice to be found there. If all those Nazis getting quietly shuffled off into western government positions hadn’t already done that for you.
I disagree.
He didn't spend all that time vetoing progressive policies and harassing the homeless to sit on the sidelines while someone else runs against Trump's third term.
So people on the internet can get mad that you didn’t vote how they wanted instead of getting mad at you for not voting.
That’s great. Nothing has changed about Facebook so nothing is stopping them from banning it now for the same reason as TikTok. The only reason they wouldn’t is if they had a motivation that had nothing to do with protecting elections from foreign influence.
Foresight? We’re talking about the present and the recent past dude are you okay or do you just argue in weird slogans?
I am for severely restricting the ability for all corporations to gather and sell user data. You think I’m making a whattaboutism or whatever debate buzzword you want to conjure up; what I’m taking issue with is the argument that the reason they’re getting banned has anything to do with that data collection or “national security”. If that had any truth to it, Facebook would have gotten the same treatment, or at the very least would be in the conversation now since they do the same exact shit. If this was about data collection they would pass regulations about that instead of targeting one specific site to unilaterally ban.
which is great until you realize that if it cant connect to a server somewhere to download the latest Ad manifest it crashes the OvenOS and now your warranty is void AND you can't bake a cake.
