Well, if this isn’t a sign to get off those VPNs in favour of Mullvad, I don’t know what is. They’re clearly big enough corporations to be targeted - time will tell if they’re gonna fold like one

“Content filtering” is just corporate jargon for subjective censorship, dynamically and discriminately restricting access to knowledge. I abhor all censorship.

Fatal police shootings in the UK are getting more common. In 2019 one man was “lawfully murdered” because an officer said the victim’s mobile phone looked like a handgun. In 2024 it was announced the officer would not be prosecuted. Not one police officer has been found guilty of illegal murder as of yet.

In the UK the term is defined by the government as anyone who is deemed by the government a threat to the government or the people or someone’s property or the predominant local religion. But recently it’s been exclusively used for the first one. In this country state law is valued higher than corporate, moral, ethical and religious laws, so YMMV

I never said AirDrop, I said quick sharing, and it’s OnePlus. They’ve been integrating themselves with Apple for a while

First they yap about Samsung’s flagship bar phone’s selling points except many of its features are Android 15, included with all Android flagships, and now they pretend that Google’s Pixel series are the first Android devices to have this feature…

When the Galaxy S25 was sold with Gemini 2.5, I’d had the same model for a month. And now this… My phone’s manufacturer has built in compatibility and quick sharing with iPhone for a year. Fucking posers
