Not sure if it’d work on Netflix but my wife were pleasantly surprised to A&E and History apps on our apple tv suddenly forgetting how to do ads after I set up adguard home with a few extra filter lists…I did have to ok a few things the list blocked. But the apps work and seem to be adless, at least for now.
From Texas…call me shocked 🙄
the better to farm your information to advertise too you and try to tie you in to more subscriptions.
And two more states are soon to have a massive uptick in VPN usage.
You can also use Dropbox, Box, OneDrive, iCloud, etc to send files back and forth.
That is both hilarious, amazing, and messed up 🤣

On meta’s while it is flagrant screw you, they may have a valid argument. Human beings don’t actually need any kind of social media to survive, ergo it is a convenience or luxury that could be charged for.
I’m certainly not agreeing with them, but they may be banking on that style argument and their ungodly amount of money to fight it.
Yes, yes they do. My wife’s phone does this all the time, Talk about something, even random or sometimes from a tv show. In minutes she has instagram or youtube ads about the very thing.
Everyone wants a piece of the AI pie…

If it’s free online, you are the product
Could these please stop dropping more ads on the ui🙄. That and forced copilot make loath using windows.
a) need other and probably better sensors b) need to admit true self driving is a heck of lot more complicated. (consider all the things most drivers subconsciously handle with barely a thought that in fact a computer would have to “see,” acknowledge and compute if action is needed and possibly act on while also dealing with the multitude of other factors . They have things mistaking big obvious things and hitting them. The common analogy of a plane autopilot is apples to oranges. The sky is more or less empty: some birds, weather…but air traffic controllers work very hard to keep planes a fair distance away from each other.
