    Depends on your process. Are you using the Google (Search) App? I don’t think you can turn that off in there. I’d take a look at using a different Browser. If you’re on iOS, Safari is probably fine, if you’re on Android, I’d think about using Firefox (Google Play), or if you’re feeling daring, Fennec, a more privacy focused version of Firefox (F-droid).

    The UX will be different, and you gotta decide whether you’re fine with that, but at least those won’t change the links you’re trying to share.



  • The last time I ate McDonald’s, I arrived in Pasewalk, a tiny town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, on a much delayed train at 2 in the morning. They where the only place that was open, and I hadn’t eaten since noon.

    That burger was kinda OK, but it might have been the circumstance. They stopped selling vegan burgers anyway, so whatever.


  • Any video surveillance not controlled by you and you only seems like a bad idea. iRobots products have had privacy problems for years, regardless of whether they’re owned by Amazon or not (which they aren’t, merger got cancelled). Alexa does cost them money, but I wouldn’t use any non-FOSS non-self-hosted smart home system for privacy and security reasons.



  • Because it’s not using https. While https is certainly preferable, as long as you’re just reading info of a website (not making an account, entering data) http is pretty much fine.

    Modern Browsers just don’t like it (which is also understandable, because most users probably don’t care about the nuances of when it is or isn’t a problem).
