  • Digital Rights Management. Usually DRM agreements are imbedded in the terms and conditions no one reads when they install software. It usually gives the software vendor the right to monitor your use of the software in real time via the internet.

    Within the context of Chrome and other Chromium based web browsers, this means that Google will be able to monitor your web browsing in a new way any time you’re using a browser based on Chrome/Chromium.

    I agree 100%.

    They use a few particular wedge issues to create voters who will vote one way regardless of any other considerations.

    • Abortion is murder
    • Your guns are the only thing that protect you and your family and the government wants to take them away
    • Party of law and order
    • Party of small government/fiscal responsibility

    It doesn’t matter in the slightest if the actions of Republican politicians conflict with their platforms.

    • Countless Republican leaders get abortions
    • Trump passed the first major firearm control in recent memory
    • January 6th
    • The deficit has gone up during every Republican administration and down in every Democrat administration since Reagan




  • It absolutely is a good thing when security is concerned. WiFi is easy to snoop even if you’re not physically in the room, if you know what you’re doing. Sure there are encryption standards that are very good to tamp down on this. However, what’s even better with LiFi is you must be physically in the room to intercept any transmissions that are being sent.

    This is by design one of the largest advantages to LiFi. There are other practical uses as well, but it’s not like LiFi is designed to explicitly replace WiFi.
