They also go out of their way to blacklist their clients use of the class leading mobile privacy and security focused OS, spending time looking for hacky ways for their app to detect it. Clearly protecting you is not a priority and neither is allowing you to protect yourself.
Online bank Revolut handed customers’ passports, verification selfies and financial histories to criminals who posed as government officials. The information disclosed may have included names, dates of birth, home addresses, identity documents, account statements, withdrawal records and complete Bitcoin transaction histories. Around 680 customer accounts are now understood to have been affected. Revolut says its systems were not hacked - that's right, they didn't need to be, because Revolut handed the information over! This is what can happen when ever more of our sensitive information is collected, connected and made available through digital systems.

I am me, you can tell I am me, because I am doing things I do, like not giving you proper details, and making you lap up 🧂
"We need to verify you're you." Companies make up reasons to collect your data. They're often lying. Sometimes making up a fake person is a valid form of resistance. I refuse to normalize mindlessly handing over my data.

Quick App Review Google Maps Slow, delayed, no lane guidance on trunk road divergance, intentionally tries to destroy clutches navigating onto single track back roads in rural areas UK to save 2 mins, self navigating on return journeys was quicker & safer. TLDR: Shit

The only upside is congestion and live traffic data. Neither of which changed any routes just prepared you. The above is likely a massive cause of last minute exits etc seen on dashcam channels being incredibly dangerous.

My experience with Organic and CoMaps has been equal with notification promptness for directions being better. Downside is using TTS engines for the voice. 🤪

We need the person who recently sent a 1000 EUR donation via Wise to contact us via email with their full name so we can get Wise to unfreeze the payment. We regularly run into this issue with Wise but it's usually for small donations such as a 5 EUR one which got returned today.

No one other than us should make domains, accounts or anything else using the GrapheneOS name and logo. Those are our registered trademarks. We've been actively dealing with stores using our name/logo despite none being official. We don't want tokens using our name/logo either.
