Neat

Until the next time this comes around.

It’s a twitter image that says,

“For anyone unaware, Google Chrome is currently rolling out an update that tracks your interests based on browsing history, then share them with 3rd party websites. The notification page makes it sound like they added a new privacy feature, but in actuality they automatically enrolled you into their tracking system and you have to go and manually opt out.”

There’s a screenshot of a pop up from Chrome that says, “Enhanced ad privacy in Chrome” with some marketing spin on how you get more choice on the types of ads you see.

You could look into the app Photo Sync on the App Store. It should support S3 compatible storage, although I’ve personally never used it (only used WebDAV and SMB).

All fair complaints. I’ve managed to switch over all of my contacts to Signal (that I care to talk to, at least).

My biggest gripe is no back up support on iOS, meaning that if I lose my phone I lose everything. People have tried hand waving it away as a privacy feature, but I think backing up messages is a bare minimum for a messaging app - especially with the released of Advanced Data Protection for iCloud.
