Politics had totally changed, instead of having politicians, you only had puppets for the big tech companies: all those puppets did, was make sure that it's companies kept getting more financially powerful, and kept getting even more invasive, as if that were even possible

I mean they were a literally up your digestive track already, all the way to your spinkster.

Don't let me talk about flying; it takes you literally 72 hours to book a ticke; 8 hours a day you have to follow those dreadful procedures of which 90% is just ads, to finally get the seat booked with six screens pointed at you only bombarding you with advertisements.

Trains were even worse; Walls of screens, almost no place to sit, let alone sit comfortably.
In busses they left you alone, but what they did, is make the bus almost totally transparent and make sure that all the of the massive screens at the buildings were pointing at you, giving out all your personal information for everyone else to see, including your menstrual cycle, the size of your prostate, and everything else that's supposed to be medically sealed, just to show you walls and walls of advertisements regarding those medical status parameters.

And do not think that when you're finally at home sleeping, away from your dreadful job, and asleep that you sleep cycle was normal
Remember those devices that implanted in you at Birth? Those devices injected at advertisements in your dreams making your sleep horrific and tiring.

Suicide rates were skyrocketing; it was normal to lose a friend every month who succumbed to suicide because of the horrific carpet bombing advertisements raids. There were more psychiatrists than regular physicians. Funeral parlors were the only places where business was booming for the private sector, owned by fairly regular people.

Mercedes-Benz almost exclusively made funeral cars because that's what's sold the most and the best and asked for the most, by those who could still afford cars

I've just woken up from a horrific IT Nightmare.

Only commercial companies were providing services on the internet, Open Source did not exist, Linus Torvalds was never born, Netscape has never come into fruition.

Every website you went to you have to go through 12 pages of advertisements bombarding you with all the flashes all the sounds and even even HTML5 did not exist everything was Flash!

There are only two browsers available Google Chrome and Microsoft Internet Explorer. Browser extensions were non-existent; everybody went on the internet like a drone and endured the horrific bombardment of advertisements like carpet bombs falling on your mind, as if you were in Vietnam, getting bombarded by The Enemy Flying B-52 fortresses.

All the Services constantly changed their end-user license agreement, your mobile devices had eight cameras pointed at you and none to the outside world. Those devices also had seven microphones of which the worst was used for you to talk into with your people and Friends, the six others were used to listen to you environment and sent everything outside.

Tracking devices were planted in your body at Birth, you are constantly itching because of all those devices in your system, giving you skin irritation and making your complexion like that of sandpaper.

Even going outside in your garden was horrific, micro drones were constantly following you, listening and looking at everything you do, even if you don't have any mobile devices on you.

Stores were even worse, everything you bought had tracking and tracing, even The Food you ate had tracking, and traces were going to your digestive track all the way to the toilet.

And while you were sitting there you had to endure advertisements for every time you use the toilet.

There were 12 financially Rich families on the planet everyone else was economic slave.

All religions were converted to advertisement bombardment Systems and to subjugation of people to Ads

So in chromium 135 I'm finally seeing V2 (and by extension ublock origin) disabled.

I switched to ublock origin lite, and after a few days of usage I haven't actually noticed a difference, other than needing to manually configure aggressive filtering and also the missing ability to disable javascript for the site.

Anything in particular that works much worse in ublock origin lite compared to ublock origin?

Seltsam: Obwohl ich nicht auf der Internetseite nih.gov war, bekam ich von ihr ein Cookie. Bei Ublock bekomme ich es aber nicht hin, die Seite zu sperren bzw. das Cookie abzulehnen. Hat jemand eine Anleitung zu ublock bzw. einen Link, wie das genau funktioniert, weil ich es anscheinend nicht kapiert habe... Die whois funktion von Heise brachte auch keine hilfreichen Daten und Ideen. @mho@social.heise.de gov ist doch eine "Regierung" oder "NGO" - oder habe ich mir das falsch gemerkt? Aber warum bekomme ich von da Cookies, wenn ich nur zum Thema "Trans*" von einer trans* Organisation (aber eben nicht die erwähnte .gov) etwas gelesen habe...?
Danke!

I would like to be logged in to Youtube to participate in some live chats and to occasionally comment.

#Vivaldi is based on #Google's #Chromium platform. I know that #Google is working to kick uBlock Origin out of the #Chrome Extension Store since it's an effective YouTube ad blocker.

So I'll use Vivaldi as my browser and Firefox as a YouTube viewer! 🤪 🤣

Otherwise, I'd use Freetube or just log out of Google and watch add free.

The numbers are still depressingly low.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UBlock_O

"As of December 2024, the Chrome version of #uBlockOrigin had over 40 million active users and the Firefox version had over 9 million active users."

Given the difference in user counts between #GoogleChrome and #Firefox, it's striking how much more (on average!) Firefox users know about privacy and safety than Chrome users do.

I do agree that #Linux-users are more likely than #Windows-users to be running Firefox and that this'll cause Linux to be under-counted.

Ça fait longtemps que #Linux est prêt pour le bureau.
Il y a tout ce qu'il faut. Il faut seulement essayer de ne pas garder les mauvaises habitudes prises avec #Windows, pour ceux qui feraient la transition.
Le plus souple est de commencer avec la suite bureautique #LibreOffice, #Firefox + #uBlockOrigin, #Thunderbird (qui gère aussi les #agenda, la messagerie #XMPP, etc.)
Puis d'avoir une machine sous Linux.
Tout synchroniser via #Nextcloud.
Et un jour, plus besoin de Windows.
