This game was great! Managed to run up a huge phone bill with that built in dialup modem back in the early 2000s, I don't think my parents even knew it had one when they bought the console.

This tbh. The criticism of how the left behaves in aggregate is probably valid.

It's one of the reasons the left is less politically successful, this kind of excessive 'call-out' behaviour tends to cause groups to endlessly divide and fight one another (at least it's consistent)

The right on the other hand tends to form ranks, far more hypocritical but better for mobilising large groups of people behind a common cause.

Not op ( that guy was being intolerably rude ) but I'm not surprised that ddg is reporting that a vpn app is sending all these requests, the very nature of a VPN app is to capture and proxy all your traffic, so it will end up proxy all the tracking requests on your system. These likely came from a browser ( any site with an Amazon button for example will likely show as an amazing tracking hit )

In short, your VP is likely not selling your data.

I mean, given the current trajectory of software and hardware, they probably could.

I tend to go for 'you approached me, and this sounds interesting'

Sounds like a drone dropping an energy weapon on a shield users head would do the trick then.

Wouldn't a UK court only concern itself with the activities of a company operating in the UK? If this company does not operate in the UK I'm surprised it's got far enough to need overturning

If it's any consolation (it's not) it won't blow up, it'll just steadily get worse.

Probably ai generated.

But you'll worry anyway, as your anxiety is a product of your biochemistry, which is governed by deterministic processes.

The same logic applies to all rent seeking behaviours

Seems fairly obvious that they need to negotiate with their direct employer.
