New comment by unbeli in "Meta's Mandatory Return to Office Is 'A Mess'"

What does it solve though? If the purpose of RTO is being together with your team, and you don't have enough desks to bring the team in the office at the same time, this solves basically nothing.

Perhaps Reddit isn't a preferred support channel for them?

Perhaps you're right. I'll better discuss it privately.

This has nothing to do with the actual location of the servers holding the data. Which would not be a single location anyway.

New comment by unbeli in "Browser extension that strips Google Analytics tokens from URL query strings"

unbeli — Wed, 16 May 2018 18:14:40 +0000

This is wishful thinking. How confident are you that you'll spot a well planted backdoor? Hint: the more capable you are, the less confident you should be.

Installing this extension basically means trusting a random dude (the author) with all the data passing through the browser just to screw over some random people trying to get coarse-grained stats on where people come to their websites from. Sounds like a rather idiotic idea, but I'm sure even this will have its users.

This is bullshit, of course. He wasn't killed for waving a flag. He was killed because he was part of a violent group attacking Israeli soldiers.

New comment by unbeli in "Russia plans Linux-based mobile operating system to rival Android and iOS"
