This has not been my experience at all and I take Waymos pretty frequently, especially at popular areas like concerts or airports you'll see a bunch of them dropping off/picking up people without issues.

At least in most parts of the US, hitting and killing a pedestrian does not usually result in jail time for the driver - unless the driver was driving under the influence or was driving recklessly. Most times their license isn't even taken away.
Older article that I remember but still remains true based on news reports I read https://revealnews.org/article/bay-area-drivers-who-kill-ped...

Not sure if it's still the case, but Spotify would charge me $12.99 through Apple and encouraged me to switch to paying them directly for $9.99

As a current Pixel 3 user, I think this article is slightly hyperbolic. The phone still works great other than a worse battery, definitely not "garbage". The author is making it sound like the phone stops working. But then again I still use Windows 7 which also doesn't have security updates.

How nice of you to live in a state that wants people to get an ID and vote, it's not like that everywhere...
Older article but wouldn't be surprised if more states are doing similar things today.
"Many ID-issuing offices maintain limited business hours. For example, the office in Sauk City, Wisconsin is open only on the fifth Wednesday of any month. But only four months in 2012 — February, May, August, and October — have five Wednesdays. In other states — Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, and Texas — many part-time ID-issuing offices are in the rural regions with the highest concentrations of people of color and people in poverty"

In Chicago the wards that make up Chicago are called Community Areas, nothing really confusing about it if you live in Chicago.

I can't read the article because of the paywall, but is this counting China? Since Google isn't used in China I can't see how they are hitting those %s worldwide.

I don't see the outrage. This looks pretty similar to the design of every streaming service these days? Netflix, Prime, etc. The top bar is the largest and displays the newest/trending things to watch.
The only difference is what they might display on the top bar. On Netflix they just show you the newest/trending stuff regardless of I'm interested in it based on my viewing habits. Netflix really wants me to watch Tiger King. So if these streaming services were smart they would pay Google for this ad space based on my viewing habits, or it'll be the newest/trending stuff from these services and it's basically the same/useless then.

Open the Play Store app and there's a Subscriptions page on the sidebar.

Huh? You claim you can get the same functionality of location tracking by just taking photos of everywhere you've ever gone, and oefrha said they don't want to take a picture at every place they've ever gone (like a bathroom). I don't think his take is that narrow or regressive.
When I go to a restaurant I don't like taking pictures of the food, or pictures of the restaurant. I like enjoying the food and the company I'm with - but maybe I'm regressive.

I don't think this is true, on my account (also signed up online) I can go to the below link and click "Cancel Subscription" then choose the Use Account option instead of calling in or using their customer service chat.

NYT did something similar to what you are looking for

Love the site, and honestly not unreasonable prices compared to galleries in my area (Chicago). Love the banana for scale feature!
