I'm very curious what these knowledgeable users say.

Rule 1 of the internet is "check the link before you click" and these man in the middle forwarding systems make that impossible.

I have a different association with "enshittification" but I definitely don't support this change because it's a security problem, you're totally dependent on their moderation to keep you from clicking sketchy links.

    Google can only do that if they can maintain grip on the market. This requires the likes of Samsung, who also contribyte to android, to move with them to their then propiatary solution. Google is not going to win this just with their Pixels.

    Google closing android would ruffle a lot of feathers so it definitely wouldn't be a given they would come out of that on top.

    Apple has no problem existing outside of Google's sphere of influence. And honestly if the android market would split and you'd get legitimately google-less phones with large app stores that google doesn't control that would be fairly beneficial if you ask me.

    Als je oprecht een aanleiding hebt om met mensen te willen praten, en "gewoon een gesprek" voeren ook echt alleen de basis is, stuur je maar een schrijftelijke uitnodiging hiertoe ofzo. En als mensen daar aan willen meewerken voer je dat gesprek via een onafhankelijke bemiddelaar.

    Je stuurt niet zomaar onaangekondigd een uniform met een monopolie op geweld en, tot zekere hoogte, waarheid langs want dan snap je er gewoon niks van.

    Data you get from people by using torture is automatically invalid, especially when it comes to getting people to "admit" things.

    When are we finally going to consider this the war crime/crime against humanity it is?

    The two look like boobs, and the three look like a penis

    Due to the fact I'm essentially a 40 year old adolescent i have Olympic gold in seeing penises and (to a lesser extent) tits in everything, but you lost me here...

    If this is is the answer it'll take the cake as most abstract rendition ever.
