I see a lot of news of it "coming soon" and leaks, but not an official release. Do you have more info?

"America’s only Christian conservative wireless provider and our mission is to passionately defend our God-given Constitutional rights and freedoms while glorifying God."

How are they making this mission? Do they block sites? Or it's just a way to scam people with shitty services and high price? Both?

We have something similar here, they just scam but not block

Well, it does search online too. That the implementation is atrocious is a different thing.

Btw, did you know that anything typed in start/search now counts as a search in edge? I wander whats behind that move.

It searches for everything you search so that by the time you press enter, it already has the result of the last one, hence seeming faster.

This story is exclusively for subscribers of Notepad, our newsletter uncovering Microsoft’s era-defining bets in AI, gaming, and computing.

It's worse than a paid ad. It's an ad. You have to pay to see.

If I watch it on TV, computer, tablet or phone, I pirate it. Else, I pay.

Hell, I'm pirating Amazon even though I have Amazon Prime because of how crap the app is.

Does it require internet at any point to activate/check the key? If so it's the same with extra steps.

want to see a world where content creators are simply paid by the hour, while they work.

Do you? Because that's how game developers get their ideas crushed in favor of yet another game as a service that nobody asked for but makes stock holders happy.

And for alternative creators, who would pay? Do they need to be churning content as a job and not because they are inspired?

I get the idea, it's just that seems hard to pull off

Soon the game world will have speakers with ads, that will not really follow volume settings or distance attenuation.

The tutorial will have you collect "refreshing Pepsi Colas".

Cinematics will always look to the big billboards.

And the game will have strict anti tampering/mods and will require internet connection to support this adds.

EA doesn't get the benefit of the doubt anymore

I would say your interpretation was a bit extreme. Nobody implied a warrant from anywhere in the world.

They didn't require any encrypted data. Apple has your name and payment details unencrypted, as they need them to charge you.

Proton complies with Swiss law, and has to be channeled through Swiss official channels who rely the request.

So there's jurisdiction.
