    You can install DNS content blockers (like NextDNS) on Apple TV which will take care of a good chunk of ads and privacy violations. This also works if you install a VPN App that has those options.

    Not sure what you would install on a shield that would be much more effective. Maybe you could explain.


  • I have a second bank account with a credit card for daily spending and online purchases. It only has a certain amount of money I expect to need for the month. If I need to make bigger purchases I’ll have to transfer the funds to it first.

    Also things like Apple/Google/Amazon Pay hide CC info so you could use those instead when they are available.

    SMS is a dead technology as it should be. It’s not private or secure in any way and the apps you listed probably just don’t give a fuck about implementing it in a way that is.

    If Signal had just 1 person working on keeping it alive it would still be money that could be spent elsewhere. Like the username feature I had been patiently waiting for, which was delivered recently and is a great addition.
