OP said (paraphrasing) “here’s the last time they got caught doing what they just did to me” when they linked it. It’s an addendum to their rant, not the main focus of it.

If it weren’t for reader mode, a lot of news sites would be unusable.

And lets give the dot menu a slight delay so it looks neat.

The version on my S5 is a quarter the size of the version on my XCover. Both give the same directions. The app ballooned to 4x the size for ads and features I have literally never used on the phone like street view and “explore”.

The version on my near decade old phone is also snappier and uses less data because it isn’t background loading a bunch of ads for me to tune out.

The logic is that they don’t count ignition costs because they only have to be paid once. So it’s producing more than it consumes, and would eventually start netting a surplus.

The content in question is unfortunately something that has become very common in recent months: CSAM (child sexual abuse material), generally AI-generated.

AI is now apparently generating entire children, abusing them, and uploading video of it.

Or, they are counting “CSAM-like” images as CSAM.
