Does it come spyware free?

And Oracle as well. Good luck trying to find old software and/or documentation links that don't 404.

No separation between tabs and they keep hiding useful context menu items [0].

[0] As an example:

1) close tabs to the right/left and - are now hidden under menus

2) show image on current page was removed - only allowed to show image on a new tab (which the mouse middle button already used to do)

Thanks for the explanation. I had the wrong idea that it could be due to, for example, if A->B belonged to a different provider than B->C, providers not reaching an agreement on what % to take each, for the journey from A->C - hence increasing the overall cost for covering demands from both.

And it's often cheaper to buy 2/3 separate tickets, for stops along the way of a long journey, than just simply buying straight from A to B.

Exactly this. It's a problem already solved by pagination - but I guess that's not cool and doesn't allow for such granular tracking.

I feel you. Unfortunately, I don't think GDPR will be of much help on that case. A fine of up to 1% of they're revenue will hardly make a dent - it's just another tax. Misbehaviour will be still worth it.

Actually GDPR is of great help to them, by putting smaller competitors away from using similar techniques. For those, a 1% revenue is a lot.

In the UK, JustEat takes 30% of the order, same as UberEats, with 0 liability - if something goes wrong with the order, including problems with delivery time, driver taking a nibble, the restaurant just doesn't get paid. Deliveroo is a bit greedier and takes 35%.

It's definitely not the lack of competition... it's just that the competition doesn't behave much better compared to them.

So, not only apple, but pretty much everyone, can eavesdrop on the HTTP request and find out from which developer I'm running apps from?

Increasing performance and cutting down infrastructure costs?

Looks like someone deserves a bonus
