What’s interesting about that one is that as best I can tell, it’s only millennials who got caught up on this. Gen X didn’t care and as best I can tell, Zoomers don’t either.

Funny thing is that I clicked and started the 17.7 update, noticed the 18 update below, and clocked on it instead. Seems I may have been lucky to have seen it.

I generally think that TikTok sucks but do agree with this argument. It’s silly to say that domestic companies can be evil but foreign ones no.

I disagree with the idea that the internet is worse than it used to be. Back in the day, you went into a forum and people were MEAN for no particular reason. People do that now over politics more than anything. Before, that's just how people were.

You may be right. The sales side lines up a contract, installer comes out, and they move on.

I work IT at a university. They do go looking for this sort of thing. Every time students move in and plug in their equipment from home, entire network segments collapse. There is a game of whack a mole each time the term starts.

Is this a private or for profit university?

They will find it. Hidden is a software switch and your device just doesn’t show it. It’s still being advertised, however.

It shouldn’t surprise you that major organizations like to protect their infrastructure.
