Haha, you're so silly! The meme says 10 years ago and not— …

My god, it really has been ten years since 2014, hasn't it?

I'm happy I have y'all because I can satisfy my curiosity sparked by clickbait titles without ever giving those a click.

Seriously, the digest alone looks like the full thing is an absolute non-article.

I'd actually argue that most shareholders do know what a bad move it is but are willing to stay around for it because the average consumer has proven to begrudgingly live with adverts everywhere. Amazom gets away with it on Prime, mobile ads are even worse, and Youtube gets away with it despite the outrage… I wonder whether the ads would also lead to an ad-free Windows 365 subscription for consumers analogous to Youtube Premium.

Bei mir ist es Mullvad DNS. Gibt es auch für Nicht-Nutzer derer VPNs. Bisher haben die nichts gemacht, das mich an ihnen zweifeln lässt.

Als zweite Option hätte ich noch Quad-9, also 9.9.9.9. Die wurden aber wegen Urheberrechtsverletzungen haftbar gemacht und da weiß ich nicht, wie lange die solche Seiten jetzt noch offenhalten.
