I guess this also varies tremendously by region. WhatsApp completely dominates non-work communication in Argentina; we don't use SMS, nor phone calls, and FB is pretty much is second place.

AFAIK, in the US people actually use SMS a lot, and I'm sure it's a bit different everywhere else.

More on topic though; you can use Messenger without an FB account and still find people by username.

Amazon Prime is basically US-only. HBO gets hired during GoT season and then dumped.

Meanwhile, the majority of the people out there have Netflix. We even see ads on the streets and all over the place, while the other two competitors are still inexistent.

Not the majority though, as far as I understand, they won even though they don't have a majority of the voters, just a majority of the districts. Or something along those lines which simply confuses (and amazes) us non-US residents.

I'm also a bit impressed / curious about how much power the President has; he appoints FCC the chairman, and that chairman ends up taking these sort of decisions? Sounds a lot like something that the legislative branch should pick up, not [transitively] the executive one.

Or am I missing something?

* One account required me to log in with a username, and was associated with my main email address. * The other account required me to log in with my main email address.

In a way, they were both related to the same email, but different accounts. This shouldn't even have been possible, but it seems that one was an old MS account, and the other was an old Skype account. My roster ended up being split half and half between the two.

It's amazing how mindsets can be so different in different places (and I'm saying all this with no tone of judgement).

I wonder if the connection is made straight from the iPhone to shazam, or Apple actually proxies this.

The plan you mention, is about 11% of the average salary in India.

Even though it's cheaper in absolute terms, it's still more expensive in relative terms.

I actually saw this mentioned in a recent UX talk by google: the salary differences end up making internet a lot more expensive for the locals in India, Indonesia, etc, to the point where some apps actually show how much they'd use (eg: Youtube shows the size of a video before downloading).

People still micro-manage they available data because of how expensive it feels to them.

It's still possible for a sophisticated MITM to replace the JS code so that is DOES send the key somewhere.

When resetting the phone, or moving to a new iPhone, there's no way to carry over settings. The same applies if you have more than one device.

If you ever have any issues, you'll lose all your OTP keys.

That's a really really odd, step to take, especially considering both browsers use pretty much the same extensions API.

Of course it's done after installation -- how would an app allow you to configure something BEFORE it's installed?

Previously users entered their email just once, and had to confirm newsletter subscription via email. They didn't need to fill in a second form or anything, just confirm they wanted to sign up by clicking a link on an email they get.
