Yeah, I agree with that. I would never use their browser or other products but their search fits the “at least it’s not google/MS”.
I even think what the CEO is saying is correct here, Google is doing it’s best kill competition.

User agent. Google wants you to use Chrome. You can spoof the user agent in Firefox to get the same results.
They still have the disclaimer on the app in the pay store. It was added after they were called out.
The fact that they hid it in the first place is disqualifying for a privacy focused product.
You’re talking abut the search bar at the top of the first home screen right? It’s always google but it can be removed.
That should be fixed for sure, it’s annoying. Personally I use firefox anyway so I change it to the firefox search widget which uses your firefox default.
I have a phone with stock android 13, which would be the same experience as a Pixel or other stock android phone.
Here’s the process for me:
Definitely not 30-50 steps on a phone setup by Google. Only real complaint is it can’t be changed from the search field itself.
Their own CEO admits they are required to allow Microsoft tracking in their “privacy” browser due to the contract for search. They use Bing for search, it’s not a myth.
For non-search tracker blocking (eg in our browser), we block most third-party trackers. Unfortunately our Microsoft search syndication agreement prevents us from doing more to Microsoft-owned properties. However, we have been continually pushing and expect to be doing more soon.

Yes, it is. That’s a different planned parenthood.
Planned Parenthood delivers vital reproductive health care, sex education, and information to millions of people worldwide. Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. is a registered 501©(3) nonprofit under EIN 13-1644147. Donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowable under the law.
It’s a registered 501c3. Whatever anybody’s opinions, it’s a legal charity.
Yes, I know. In this case though it appears to be an online transaction not in store so no cash isn’t an option. That said, as I pointed out, generally even that won’t be the case most of the time. It’s just the worst case.
Just do a charge back worst case, you won’t be able to buy anything from them again. Not really a loss and generally doesn’t happen anyway.
In general sure, but not for problems like this. That wouldn’t address the issue in the OP at all.
I prefer a more open internet is all
BS, what you’re saying has nothing to do with an “open internet”. Stop co-opting terms, a fediverse instance defederating isn’t a closed internet. The other instance still exists and you can still access it if you want to.
Frankly, good riddance we don’t need people who won’t stick around because bad instances are defederated. That’s not a problem that needs to be solved, it’s a feature.
There is a common thread in your complaints. This isn’t a problem that’s going to kill the fediverse it’s a problem with instances without moderation. Turns out shitty instances that don’t care about moderation are the same ones that “have a policy to not defederate from anything”. Stop joining shitty instances that allow literally illegal content and you won’t have that problem.
It’s certainly thankless but is it a job if you don’t get paid?
if a third party sues a commercial customer for copyright infringement for using Microsoft’s Copilots or the output they generate, we will defend the customer and pay the amount of any adverse judgments or settlements that result from the lawsuit
It doesn’t address lost revenue or any other blow back from having to take down your content but it does say they will pay any judgement/settlement costs.
None of those are valid arguments, especially e-waste. It’s literally the opposite, fairphone is gaslighting.
13 and up due to COPPA if this is a US based website.

Even better, it should ignore all input except 0-9 so it doesn’t matter if you try to put spaces or other characters.
