Well these days Android asks for more permissions so I guess it would prevent it in many cases by preventing access to the microphone for apps where you don’t want to allow it…

Go to settings and try to reset to default settings

Ublock origin on Firefox and that’s the only one you use?

I use revanced on mobile so good question but it does on PC

Revanced or Firefox with ublock, no more ads

Eh…

Clearly they don’t considering they had fascist governments decades ago and have one/are on their way to having one again now while it’s the first one in the US (Trump’s first term wasn’t like this one even if it was a shitshow…)

Valve’s response to George Floyd was to give each employee a certain amount of money and let them choose which charity to give it to (if they did give it to charity), which means they could just as well give it to an anti BLM movement if they wanted to.

And you think stupidity is exclusive to the US? Italy elected a fascist, Germany’s far right party is gaining ground…

Popular support for something doesn’t mean that thing is good.

“Eat the rich!”

“Including Gabe?”

“Woooow there cowboy!”

I hate the hypocrisy.

You can find popular support for plenty of shitty things. I could point 70m people in the US supporting a very shitty thing!

When you’re in a monopolistic position you don’t need to do much for people to decide to sell in your store instead of going for alternatives, who would have thought?

Yay, wasted resources, how fun!

Yeah anyone who runs a node is laughing at those numbers

Neither is privacy then

But privacy is? We’ve been eating food much longer than we’ve had any privacy…

Lulz, privacy without food to eat won’t be too useful

Racism, that’s the word you’re looking for! So well implemented that the victims keep it going without any influence from the group that “has the right” to just call itself American without any prefix.

That’s just being part of a minority no matter where you live. White Americans don’t all celebrate the same things and don’t all talk the same way, with some of them being nigh impossible to understand if you weren’t raised around people who speak like them, yet they’re just called Americans. Hell, if you were raised in the USA and have Danish parents no one will call you a Danish-American as long as you don’t have an accent, but if you are of Latino origins and your family has lived on US soil since before the USA was a thing you will be called a Latin-American. It’s just racism.

Nah, that’s a load of bullshit, the only cultural aspect to it is racism. It’s just used as a way to divide people, there’s “real Americans” and then there’s the rest.

There’s a shit ton of black Americans that will never just be called Americans even though their family has lived on US soil much longer than the family of some of the white people who are just called Americans.
