I think you’re right. If I remember correctly I did not have a stellar address until I clicked the ‘Wallet’ button in the Keybase app. That action and the device it was issued from was recorded in my chainlink on Feb 15, 2019 .. which sounds about right.

I also remember feeling a bit tricked, because I wasn’t aware that by clicking that button a stellar address would be created and permanently linked to me.

This is directed at all non-indigenous people. We all do have connections to what is happening in the Amazon. Our way of life is part of the problem.

I just wasted ~15 minutes on doing the disqus login captcha under different conditions .. turns out that as soon as uMatrix is enabled (and blocks 18 cookies from google.com and 5 more from www.google.com), it starts to act up and get annoying..at least for me.

It then takes between 1 minute and 1 minute 30 to get past the recaptcha when blocking those cookies - and I was certain to be 100% correct in most cases and it kept asking me to solve more and more ..

most of the time spent solving the captchas is from the countless '4s fade ins' via inline style when cookies are blocked (as opposed to 1s fade ins via css, when cookies are set).

I'm curious why they would add 3s to the fade in if their cookies are blocked .. does that help to fight off bots, or does google just want to punish me for blocking their cookies?

Good to know. I experienced the same when I set up algo on Scaleway recently. I considered Digital Ocean as an alternative, but ended up using Hetzner Cloud (which I now prefer, since it is cheaper and based in Germany). No access issues with appleid.apple.com anymore.
