I've seen the popups too on Firefox Nightly on Android. It seems to be a firefox issue since I have seen this on other sites too

Play services is how Google delivers many Android updates now so that all users can get security updates without waiting for the device vendor to publish it for each device.

Any good resources on learning go?

Has anyone had any luck with the YT videos or courses way?

New comment by ffpip in "Ente Auth: open-source Authy alternative for 2FA"

ffpip — Fri, 05 Jul 2024 18:45:47 +0000

Storing passwords and 2FA in one place only protects you against password reuse, password leaks, and some more common threats that the large majority of people should be looking out for.

It is still a lot better than no 2FA, and more than sufficient for the average person.

For someone looking to improve their security a bit more and for someone with a "don't trust anyone" model, having a separate 2FA app has it's advantages. It protects them against unencrypted password DB leaks, security vulnerabilities in the password manager, or any intentional security threat induced by the developer of the password manager

Yes, there would be no liquidity.

Yeah I understood the mechanism, just wanted to know the companies that enable such things.

Do you have examples? People can avoid them

A PWA can have the familiar "Sign in with google" button now, which pops up a similar page as shown in the article, but with accounts.google.com in the fake URL bar.

This looks a lot like a Oauth request, where you are redirected to sign-in. You check the URL and enter the creds, with the assumption that you are using "Sign in with Microsoft" to login to the site since this is how that login flow works

Try

Type about:config in URL bar -> click proceed -> Search "browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone" in the shown search bar -> change value to "ignore"

It's progressive. 1 user flagging it doesn't mark it [flagged] but probably contributes to the ranking

What a coincidence!

I used it after 3-4 months and it didn't show any search results. Thought I had forgotten how to use their !bangs feature. Turns out it is down

Uber can easily just have 2 days of revenue ready in cash (or even a loan will be much cheaper than 1.5%) to not pay 1.5% every time.

Won't they have a rolling period, since a lot of customers just add funds and might not use it?

So you can use the balances from the people who added money 2 days ago, today.
