What exactly is odd or wrong about a company wanting to stop leaks?

Is Google the next target of the press, once they are done trashing Facebook?

Those two hypotheses are so radically different that until we figure it out it's like we know nothing :/

>Now that I'm a parent, I've made a promise to my kids that I will always let them finish their current game before kicking them off. If they start a new game after they've been given the last game warning, then there's consequences. They know this, and we rarely have any issues related to behavior and gaming.

This is good but most parents don't really know how games work so they can't look at the UI to see if their children are lying.

Brand value, I guess? All AMD hardware (CPUs and GPUs) I've bought in the past was crap, I'm never buying anything from them again, no matter what they do. It's always the same: on paper they are better and cheaper, but once I have them at home they are worse and, in case of the GPUs, they have pathetic drivers. I've always felt ripped off after buying AMD, it's never worth it just to save some pennies.

This has been my experience, I wonder if others have felt the same.

That's cool. And? I use a lot of addons. Should they all be bundled because many people happen to love them too?

Pocket is also easy to implement as an extension. In fact, it is an extension. But they bundled it with the browser.

I will never understand why Twitter exposes the UI language of all users. Terrible, security-wise.

I can replace those 1000 lines with a bash script of 1 line that just calls the Go program ^_^

Don't forget when they sent your data to Cliqz.

And I don't think anybody wants the ads they have added to the home page.

It is slower than Chrome. That's enough to me not to consider Firefox, given that speed is everything I care about.
