Technology@lemmy.world•If Phones Are Killing Pedestrians, Why Is It Only Happening in America?English
4·10 hours agoThe sidewalks thing I have personal anecdotal evidence for. I have lived in MANY areas, including my current city, where there are very few sidewalks outside the main street.
Yeah, some of the same reason everyone uses stripe or PayPal for payment systems. If the site itself handles the cc info it holds all the liability, and has to pass rigorous POC testing and compliance.
I’ve reached that point as well. Every new thing I sign up for I use an alias email, because I’m certain they’ll sell my shit at some point, and I’d like to be able to know who did it.
People need to stop using xitter
What do you know? Can you share?
Thanks for cropping into the screen properly

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Nova Launcher unashamedly inserts malware ads into your home screen now.English
1·5 months agoI used Nova for as long as it’s been a thing. Paid for pro. Abandoned it immediately after they released the news a few weeks ago about the tracking and ads.
I switched to Octopi Launcher. It’s really good, and in active development. Author listens to his users and is always adding fun new features.

I may never be able to drink juice from oranges again…
