Yeah and my guess is that they’d be less private because if they act as a transmitter, I think they could potentially be triangulated.

Yeah it’s not as secure but it has privacy advantages since there’s no 2-way communication.
Wow what a crappy article, the blog post should be what is posted instead. Not even a mention of out of date software in the article. This is clearly not a Tor issue.
They are receive only devices that work using radio signal. Messages are sent using a transmitter of some type. I understand this is a very basic description, I’m not an expert, just have an interest in telecommunications related things.
I think the easiest would be to downgrade to the 350mbps plan and see if you can even tell there is a difference. If you do a lot of downloading of large files (Linux isos and steam games) those will go slower. Anecdotally, I’m a software developer who works from home and I have never felt an upgrade from my 300mpbs plan to be necessary, but I don’t download a ton of large files very often and this decision obviously takes into account my personal income and expenses.
The nice thing about FreeTube and Invidious is that they don’t use the YouTube API and the most YouTube can do (at the moment) is issue takedown requests. You can just self-host invidious (which I believe FreeTube uses). The code is unlikely to be taken down as YouTube-dl has successfully fought off those takedown requests.
I just downloaded FreeTube today after seeing that.
If I didn’t have a job, I’d probably still work, and I’d probably be working partly for money, partly for something to do. I just wouldn’t be answering to someone else. I think “work” is misunderstood. It doesn’t have to be a bad experience, but I understand it often is. I wish more people had jobs they liked, I think that’s a better solution.

The other thing it mentioned was the “head-to-hood” test. AFAIK car manufacturers are only required to meet the collision safety requirements for collisions involving the same class of vehicle. Vehicles in different classes are not made to impact with each other, making, for instance, a sedan to pickup truck collision much more dangerous for the sedan driver. The only way they can still meet those safety requirements is to make the front of the SUVs and trucks much much smaller and probably lower.
Edit: I was thinking of the AP article about this.
