Very disappointing that they went with Persona, the company whose CEO regularly argues with people on Twitter and lies about their arguments.

Google is not bias-free, and has not been for a long time.

Can you expand on this? Who "expects" their code editor to lie about using Copilot?

Just what we need, even more government censorship.

Seems interesting. With a file limit as high as 300 gigabytes, I assume the only way they’re able to afford hosting it is because they don't have many users, so I wouldn’t expect this site to stay around for very long. I’ve seen many similar websites come and go over the years.

Exactly. You should NEVER give these companies your ID for exactly this reason.

The YouTube app now has incognito mode, which shouldn’t affect your recommendations.

AnonFiles was very sketchy. They had extremely generous file size limits and were apparently funded completely through donations. On their footer they linked to other file sharing sites, which linked to even more file sharing sites. All of them had the exact same layout and generous file size limits. They also shared the exact same IPs. There were around 15 of them. A lot of them impersonated other defunct file sharing websites which shut down such as MegaUpload. All of these sites are now offline. Make of this what you will, but to me it sounds like a honeypot.

Is that so they can subpoena your phone number as well?
