What? What does an astrotruf-review detection app have anything to do with avast?

Cool! Are you talking about something like pi-hole or something else? In what way is it going to lead to better outcomes? I already have a pretty much flawless experience with my adblockers (especially when it comes to easily creating custom rules, using the element zapper, and testing new blocklists).

I find that my suite of browser extensions serves me really well, and it keeps working even when I enable my VPN, but something like pi-hole stops working if you do that.

How does the solution you’re talking about differ? How does it provide a better experience?

This is actually huge.

I’m far FAR from an Apple user, but the moment this is available, I’ll be seeing if I can install FireFox with µBlock Origin on my partner’s phone.

I’m sorry for being this way, really, but why couldn’t you just crop the picture?!

Wait, I’m actually really curious about this Babylon 5 tidbit. Who was that? What happened?

Barely relevant, but does anyone else find that article thumbnail is absolutely terrible? I was genuinely confused for a moment, not sure what I was looking at.

FWIW, I got it now, I’m not quite that inept.

If a certain group of workers is too critical to be allowed to strike, then they’re too critical to be forced to work in poor conditions. “Back to work” legislation should not exist to bind the workers, but bind the companies.

“Sorry, you’re too important to Canada’s infrastructure, you can’t be allowed to mistreat your workers. As punishment for letting it get this bad, you must agree to ALL of their terms, and in return, they’ll begin working first thing tomorrow. Guess you should have been more agreeable BEFORE the strike.”

I dunno, forcing strikes to end in any situation seems dangerously close to forced labour. But maybe I’m just a dirty commie.
