Hasn't the founder been a vocal critic of Russia for years, including the Ukraine war? I don't really see why that would be a concern, especially since Telegram is supposedly owned by a US LLC

I was forced into using a Fitbit last year, and I instantly went back to my Samsung Galaxy watch when I got the chance. Samsung Health is annoying on iOS, but at least you don't need to send all your data to Samsung in order to use it

Physical, because my telecom only supports eSIMs for smartwatches... Even if they offered it for mobile phones, I would prefer a physical SIM, so that I can swap it easily if I'm overseas

I know there is Island for Android, but I don't think it can isolate much without root. Jailbroken iOS users also have Crane

I know that hCaptcha has a system where they send you an email containing a link to a page, which will set a cookie in your browser telling the CAPTCHA to auto-flag you as verified.

Of course, good luck if your browser blocks third-party cookies, you don't browse in incognito mode, or if your screen reader can interact with the CAPTCHA to get the link in the first place...

Nice! As a former user of their Lemmy instance, I'm glad they're back on here

I'm using Delta myself, any reason why you chose Ignited over it? Might consider switching

Here's a pro-tip: if something you're trying to look up is on a Fandom wiki, replace the "fandom.com" domain in the URL with "antifandom.com". This removes all of the ads and autoplaying videos, and generally makes the page cleaner.

It's not so simple, unfortunately. The sheer amount of data they have - 212 PB as of December 2021 - makes it practically impossible for most people to mirror. Unless they physically hand over all 745 server nodes to another operator, there's no way of someone

There are some solutions to this - for example Archive-Team has proposed a method of mirroring the Internet Archive using distributed clients, although this method currently only has a fraction of the total dataset. Still, at this point in time, there's no real solution to resharing IA's data in the event they go under

That only helps for shadow libraries whose operators are unknown. The Internet Archive, on the other hand, is a registered non-profit organisation, so how would they be able to hide themselves?

Isn't like 90% of the traffic on Usenet from alt.bin.*? In other words, file sharing. I've looked around some newsgroups, and most of them are just filled with spam posts

Honestly, they should have settled. I'm not sure how much the publisher's settlement was, but I bet they're going to lose this appeal anyway :/
