What’s even worse is typically in the terms of those 3rd party sites, they say they can monitor your balances and transactions until you tell them to stop.
That’s what I meant. “Anonymous” in the sense Facebook only assigns you a number. The meta data in aggregate is what would probably identify you.
I was trying to figure out how the college board was passing test scores with a confirmation of identity not just attaching a query history with a very strong potential for accuracy.
Right, my concern was how the official score was being attached to a pixel while still staying “ anonymous”.
So this is only passing the SAT score that a person uses in their searches? Not what they actually scored on their test?
Like if I search for colleges that take 1550 score that will get passed to Facebook, not my real score?
I think also, the removal of the port allowed for better engineering around the screen and better waterproofing and thinner devices.
I think with the EU mandating phones use USB-C, it might push apple into to drop port charging all together. You may see MagSafe only charging iPhones in the EU or everywhere soon.
It’s not to spend more money, there’s a real increase in value Bluetooth provides to most people. Yes there are edge cases, but when you can get a a blue tooth headset for $5-20 it’s not really cost prohibitive any more.
Remember when the singe piece Bluetooth mics were like $100 when Bluetooth first started hitting mainstream phones? Many people didn’t think it was worth $100 to use an unwired headset for phone calls.
Well now, that phone is also your entire music collection, your cable box and much more. Being untethered makes a lot more sense.
In addition, easily Bluetooth destroyed device batteries, now it’s more power and you can just leave it running all the time in your phone.
About 1/3 had not been previously seen in the have I been pwnd database, that’s really crazy. Either this was a very new or private list of exploited accounts.
