The Windy privacy policy seems decent.

+1 for Windy! Note that there are two apps named Windy, one with a red icon and one with a blue icon. The one you linked to has a red icon and lists its developer as Windyty, SE.

The one with the blue icon has a site at Windy.app. Their privacy policy is much more hand-wavy, with lines about how they “don’t sell” but “share” your personal information:

One of the techniques they list explicitly is to use the Meta pixel for targeted advertising. I’m not aware of any way to remove geo data from, for example, the Meta pixel and the auctions it sells into. It suggests to me that perhaps they’re thinking of your geo data as incidental to placing targeted advertising.


This really interesting, would love to see how Signal stacks up.


What’s a good app for iOS or tvOS? It looks like the official jellyfin app for iOS hasn’t been updated in a year.


What happens to students? If you're on your parents' plan but not physically in their "household"?


You can add extra users to your account and who aren't living with you: https://help.netflix.com/en/node/123277#:~:text=The%20accoun....

Lol, no thanks.

Great time to buy puts for next earnings.


I suspect students are considered part of the "household" because they are for tax and healthcare purposes. But who is going to sue to establish that?


1. "household" is not a general legal term.

2. Dependent is different from household.


From previous information I've seen, they'd have to physically go home once a month and use Netflix on their device there. Otherwise that device will get flagged.

Or Bitwarden's Passwordless.dev which is free for 10,000 users. The pro plan is $0.05 per user/month for the first 10,000 users and $0.01/user for users above 10,000.


Yah it really does destroy my battery on iOS.


How do you keep Tailscale from destroying your battery on iOS? I am trying to do this but it always kills my battery and it’s a pain to only enable and manually sync Bitwarden.


This is my experience with Tailscale wrt battery as well. It also sometimes doesn't disconnect either via the app or Settings and I'm forced to restart the phone hoping it doesn't reconnect on boot.


Does anyone know if bitwarden encrypts the URL? A quick search of their docs didn’t turn anything up.


Each unique Bitwarden account has an encryption key derived from your Master Password, according to the methods defined in Encryption. This encryption key is used to encrypt all Vault data.

Seems crazy for anyone to keep using LastPass


Isn’t google getting rid of all the old legacy unlimited plans?


I certainly haven't heard anything about it as a gsuite subscriber


They got rid of them already. Unenforced so far as far as I can tell.
