IN CONCLUSION: oooooh you want to change to firefox so badly, you want to delete chrome and all the chrome clones that are actually just spyware and use firefox
HOW TO USE MOZILLA ADD-ONS ON YOUR PHONE
if you already use firefox on android, you'll know there are certain add-ons compatible with the app, some of them even being made just for the mobile version such as Video Background Play FIx. while most of them are pretty useful, some more specific ones aren't available on this version of the browser, but there's a way of getting some of them to work
you need to download the firefox nightly app, which is basically the same as the regular firefox browser but with the ability of activating developer mode. you can find how to do that here. once you've enabled it, you need to create a collection with all the add ons you want. i wouldn't recommend adding extensions if the creators haven't talked about phone compatibility, but XKit and Shinigami Eyes should work
also, don't tell the government this secret skater move, but you can try using both the regular firefox browser and nightly so you can have youtube videos in a floating box while you browse social media.
Tumblr media
see? i can block this terf while Rick Rolling the people following this tutorial. isn't that tubular?

what's the deal with firefox
Boy howdy, am I glad you asked! I'll be comparing Firefox to Chrome and Edge.
Firefox uses fewer resources than Chrome or Edge, meaning that your browser and other apps will run faster and your battery will last longer on mobile/laptop.
Firefox is privacy-focused, meaning the browser doesn't gather data unless you opt into it, and by default it blocks third-party cookies, trackers, and other things that track you across the web. You can choose between standard, strict, and custom blocking, plus install privacy tools from the add-on store. This will protect your personal data and help websites load more quickly.
Speaking of ad blocking, Firefox supports ad-blocking extensions on Android devices, unlike the other Big 3 browsers. I don't even use the YouTube app on my phone anymore because if I watch via Firefox, I get no ads. I can actually read articles on news sites without being spammed by ads! It's amazing!
Firefox has equivalent add-ons for almost all Chrome extensions, so you won't lose functionality when you switch.
Firefox accounts allow you to sync across devices, just like Google accounts allow Chrome settings to sync, so moving from desktop to mobile or vice versa is very simple.
The Mozilla Foundation, Firefox's parent company, is a non-profit which advocates for online transparency and users' rights to keep the internet usable for everyone.
Firefox is free, open source, and non-proprietary, and allows you to opt out of all sponsored content, unlike Chrome or Edge.
Firefox does not tie you down to a particular product or corporation, such as Microsoft or Apple. It works on any platform.
Cutest mascot by far.

We should ban TikTok('s surveillance)
Tumblr media
With the RESTRICT Act, Congress is proposing to continue Trump’s war on Tiktok, enacting a US ban on the Chinese-owned service. How will they do this? Congress isn’t clear. In practice, banning stuff on the internet is hard, especially if you don’t have a national firewall:
https://doctorow.medium.com/theyre-still-trying-to-ban-cryptography-33aa668dc602
If you’d like an essay-formatted version of this post to read or share, here’s a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/03/30/tik-tok-tow/#good-politics-for-electoral-victories
My guess is that they’re thinking of ordering the mobile duopoly of Google and Apple to nuke the Tiktok app from their app stores. That’s how they do it in China, after all: when China wanted to ban VPNs and other privacy tools, they just ordered Apple to remove them from the App Store, and Apple rolled over:
https://pluralistic.net/2022/11/11/foreseeable-consequences/#airdropped
That’s the completely foreseeable consequence of arrogating the power to decide which software every mobile user on earth is entitled to use — as Google and Apple have done. Once you put that gun on the mantelpiece in Act I, you damn betcha that some strong-man backed by a powerful state is going to come along and shoot it by Act III.
The same goes for commercial surveillance: once you collect massive, nonconsensual dossiers on every technology user alive, you don’t get to act surprised when cops and spies show up and order your company to serve as deputies for a massive, off-the-books warrantless surveillance project.
Hell, a cynic might even say that commercial surveillance companies are betting on this. The surveillance public-private partnership is a vicious cycle: corporations let cops and spies plunder our data; then the cops and spies lobby against privacy laws that would prevent these corporations from spying on us:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/25/nationalize-moderna/#hun-sen
Which makes the RESTRICT Act an especially foolish project. If the Chinese state wants to procure data on Americans, it need not convince us to install Tiktok. It can simply plunk down a credit card with any of the many unregulated data-brokers who feed the American tech giants the dossiers that the NSA and local cops rely on.
Every American tech giant is at least as bad for privacy as Tiktok is — yes, even Apple. Sure, Apple lets its users block Facebook spying with a single tap — but even if you opt out of “tracking,” Apple still secretly gathers exactly the same kinds of data as Facebook, and uses it to power its own ad product:
https://pluralistic.net/2022/11/14/luxury-surveillance/#liar-liar
There is no such thing as a privacy-respecting tech giant. Long before Apple plastered our cities with lying billboards proclaiming its reverence for privacy, Microsoft positioned itself as the non-spying alternative to Google, which would be great, except Microsoft spies on hundreds of millions of people and sells the data:
https://pluralistic.net/2020/11/25/the-peoples-amazon/#clippys-revenge
Tech���s surveillance addiction means that Tiktok’s own alternative to the RESTRICT Act is also unbelievably stupid. The company has proposed to put itself under Oracle’s supervision, letting Oracle host its data and audit its code. You know, Oracle, the company that built the Great Firewall of China 1.0:
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/01/selling-china-surveillance
We should not trust Tiktok any more than we trust Apple, Facebook, Google or Microsoft. Tiktok lied about whether it was sending data to China before:
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/emilybakerwhite/tiktok-tapes-us-user-data-china-bytedance-access
And even if it keeps its promise not to send user data to China, that promise is meaningless — it can still send the vectors and models it creates with that data to China — these being far more useful for things like disinformation campaigns and population-scale inferences than the mere logs from your Tiktok sessions.
There are so many potentially harmful ways to process commercial surveillance data that trying to enumerate all the things that a corporation is allowed to do with the data it extracts from us is a fool’s errand. Instead, we should ban companies from spying on us, whether they are Chinese or American.
Corporations are remorseless, paperclip-maximizing colony organisms that perceive us as inconvenient gut-flora, and they lack any executive function (as do their “executives”), and they cannot self-regulate. To keep corporations from harming us, we must make it illegal for them to enact harm, and punish them when they break the law:
https://doctorow.medium.com/small-government-fd5870a9462e
After all, the problem with Tiktok isn’t the delightful videos or the fact that it’s teaching a generation of children to be expert sound- and video-editors. The problem with Tiktok is that it spies on us. Just like the problem with Facebook isn’t that it lets us communicate with our friends, and the problem with Google isn’t that it operates a search engine.
Now, these companies will tell you that the two can’t be separated, that a bearded prophet came down off a mountain with two stone tablets, intoning, “Larry, Sergey, thou shalt stop rotating thine logfiles and, lo, thou wilt data-mine them for actionable market intelligence.” But it’s nonsense. Google ran for years without surveillance. Facebook billed itself as the privacy-forward alternative to Myspace and promised never to spy on us:
https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3247362
The inevitabilist narrative that says that corporations must violate our rights in order to make the products we love is unadulterated Mr Gotcha nonsense: “Yet you participate in society. Curious. I am very intelligent”:
https://thenib.com/mister-gotcha/
Of course, corporations push this narrative all the time, which is why American Big Tech has been quietly supporting a ban on Tiktok, which (coincidentally) has managed to gain a foothold in the otherwise impregnable, decaying, enshittified oligarchy that US companies have created.
They have conspicuously failed to call for any kind of working solution, like a federal privacy law that would ban commercial surveillance, and extend a “private right of action,” so people could sue tech giants and data-brokers who violated the law, without having to convince a regulator, DA or Attorney General to bestir themselves:
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/01/you-should-have-right-sue-companies-violate-your-privacy
Instead, the tech giants have the incredible gall to characterize themselves as the defenders of our privacy — at least, so long as the Chinese government is the adversary, and so long as its privacy violations come via an app, and not buy handing a credit card to the data-brokers that are the soil bacteria that keeps Big Tech’s ecosystem circulating. In the upside-down land of Big Tech lobbying, privacy is a benefit of monopoly — not something we have to smash monopolies to attain:
https://www.eff.org/wp/interoperability-and-privacy
Not everyone in Congress is onboard with the RESTRICT Act. AOC has come out for a federal privacy law that applies to all companies, rather than a ban on an app that tens of millions of young Americans love:
https://www.businessinsider.com/aoc-first-tiktok-congress-ban-without-being-clued-in-2023-3
You know who agrees with AOC? Rand Paul. Yes, that absolute piece of shit. Paul told his caucusmates in the GOP that banning an app that millions of young American voters love is bad electoral politics. This fact is so obvious that even Rand fucking Paul can understand it:
https://gizmodo.com/rand-paul-opposes-tiktok-ban-warns-republicans-1850278167
Paul is absolutely right to call a Tiktok ban a “national strategy to permanently lose elections for a generation.” The Democrats should listen to him, because the GOP won’t. As between the two parties, the GOP is far more in thrall to the Chamber of Commerce and the rest of the business lobby. They are never going to back a policy that’s as good for the people and as bad for big business as a federal privacy law.
The Democrats have the opportunity to position themselves as “the party that wants to keep Tiktok but force it to stop being creepy, along with all the other tech companies,” while the GOP positions itself as “the party of angry technophobes who want to make sure that any fun you have is closely monitored by Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pinchai and Tim Cook and their pale imitations of the things you love about Tiktok.”
That’s not just good electoral politics — it’s good policy. Young voters aren’t going to turn out to the polls for performative Cold War 2.0 nonsense, but they will be pissed as hell at whoever takes away their Tiktok.
And if you do care about Cold War 2.0, then you should be banning surveillance, not Tiktok; the Chinese government has plenty of US dollars at its disposal to spend in America’s freewheeling, unregulated data markets — as do criminals, petty and organized, and every other nation-state adversary of the USA.
The RESTRICT Act is a garbage law straight out of the Clinton era, a kind of King Canute decree that goes so far as to potentially prohibit the use of VPNs to circumvent its provisions. America doesn’t need a Great Firewall to keep itself safe from tech spying — it needs a privacy law.
Have you ever wanted to say thank you for these posts? Here’s how you can: I’m kickstarting the audiobook for my next novel, a post-cyberpunk anti-finance finance thriller about Silicon Valley scams called Red Team Blues. Amazon’s Audible refuses to carry my audiobooks because they’re DRM free, but crowdfunding makes them possible.

TOTK Great Fairy Enhancements Tracker
I made a workbook in Google Sheets that will tell you in an intuitive format exactly what materials you need for your current set of gear. It's even mobile-friendly! Each tab should fit width-wise on a smartphone screen so that it's easier to quickly refer to it while you play without needing to scroll side-to-side or open it on a proper computer.
You'll want to make a copy of this file so that you can track your own gear:
Feel free to share it around, and also do let me know if you come across a bug or error!
A brief tour of the tabs below the cut:
The Input/Tracker Tab
Check off the far right of each row to indicate you own the piece, and then check the 4 boxes to the left to indicate how many stars of upgrade you've completed for that piece.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bonus: Each column is filterable, so you can choose if you want to hide the pieces you've completed or the ones you aren't working on, or whatever.
The Output/Materials Tabs
There is one tab that will list out the materials you need for your next enhancement/star for each piece of armor, and then two more that will give you a total of how many of each material you need across all of your in-progress enhancements.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I split monster parts into its own tab because the in-game sorting for monster parts is by the function of the part (all eyeballs are together, then all wings, then "sharp" parts, "crushing" parts, etc). It seemed much more intuitive for this kind of a tool to instead organize them by the monster you're getting them from instead, so you can go, "Oh wow I need a lot of lizalfos talons, and horns from 3 different kinds. I better go genociding hunting where there are a lot of different lizalfos!"

Tales of Bloody Bug and Chat Noir - Chapter 60 - Bird's Nest
Beginning || Previous || Next
            Bloody Bug stood atop the Eiffel Tower as she waited for Chat Noir. Night had fallen and the city had quieted, though was still buzzed in the night light. Unease clawed at her as she looked at the empty sky filled with the wanning full moon. She took several deep breaths as she calmed herself and prepared for the hunt before her. They would find Mayura today. They would put an end to all this.
            “You ready?” Chat Noir asked.
            Bloody Bug’s breath caught. She turned to look at Chat Noir when her eye caught the black cat ring. It shimmered and shone white with a prismatic gleam in a mesmerizing, fractured light. She turned back to the city and nodded.
            “I’m ready. Let’s go,” Bloody Bug said.
            Bloody Bug and Chat Noir activated the trackers in their tools. The other heroes were on standby and ready to mobilize while the few scheduled to be out were. They split up and covered different sections of the city. They ran along the rooftops and hopped between them while doing anything to draw eyes to them. Chat Noir twirled and mimicked poses from the shows he watched with Porcelet while Bloody Bug swung around before she skated along the side of buildings and in the streets.
            Bloody Bug’s focus was broken by a ping from her yo-yo. She leapt out of the street onto a rooftop. She opened her tool to see Chat Noir deterred off course in pursuit. She sent a signal with her yo-yo before she hurried to join Chat Noir. She watched the lively city fade away to dark neighborhoods and abandoned buildings. She pursed her lips as she stopped to look around for Chat Noir. She eyed the green fluff of his coat on a nearby rooftop. She jumped over to him and knelt.
            “What do we have here?” Bloody Bug asked.
            “I’m not sure. I saw Mayura, or rather, a shadow of her. I followed and it led me here.”
            “Well, let’s wait. We need most the team, if not all before we head in.”
            “Perhaps, though we could go in now, couldn’t we? Look around?”
            “Cat, this could be a trap if she led you here. She’s likely prepared something for us. And given her mental state, I can’t imagine it’ll be pleasant.”
            “But how long before people arrive? How long before Mayura just attacks us out here? We should at least go in to distract, right?”
            “Absolutely not. That bitch wanted to skip right to the kill when she found me yesterday. If we step in there without everyone, we’re as good as dead. We aren’t tempting fate.”
            Chat Noir grumbled and sat down. Bloody Bug and him watched for their team to arrive. Their team trickled in one by one. Gallic Chick, Outlaw, Porcelet, and Bomb Bee were the first ones to arrive. Bloody Bug filled them in as Badb, Pom Pom, Hydra, and Crimson Tiger showed up. The patrolling heroes, Minotaur, Apollo, and the newest hero, Serow, joined them. The last ones to arrive were Fennec, Ouroboros, and Llameri.
            “Alright, looks like everyone is here. Divide into your teams and get into positions,” Bloody Bug instructed.
            Everyone nodded and moved. Bomb Bee, Badb, Apollo, and Pom Pom stood with Bloody Bug while Gallic Chick, Porcelet, Llameri, and Serow stood with Chat Noir. Ouroboros found a place to hide with Fennec guarding him. Hydra, Crimson Tiger, Minotaur, and Outlaw patrolled the immediate area.
            Bloody Bug and Chat Noir moved into the building with their teams. They busted down the door and surveyed the immediate room. The room was clear of debris, random clutter, and cleared away of spiderwebs and dust expected in abandoned buildings. Various tables with equipment lined the middle of the room with the walls covered in scraps of notes. They all cautiously approached the tables and notes to inspect them.
            The instruments on the table were akin to the tools that Eve had laying around her home the second time Bloody Bug and Chat Noir met her. Amongst them was the tool that Mayura had used to liberate Tikki, Plagg, and Fluff from the Order’s tampering. Alchemy and chemistry tools were littered around the space with notes on how to make the serums with different combinations striked out and the right ones circled.
            The notes on the wall were a mix. There were ones on fresh, white paper with flawless cursive, while the others were old, yellowed paper written in an old language that looked like Sanskrit. Alongside the old parchment were loosely translated pieces of fragmented information that was all that Eve had left after she was betrayed. Bloody Bug and Apollo skimmed over the notes to find most were research results and several mentions of betrayal.
            “I see why Mayura thought there was some sort of ancient wrong now. All this mention of betrayal and no context,” Bloody Bug muttered.
            “Indeed. And you told her the truth?” Apollo asked.
            “Sure did, but in her mental state, she didn’t believe me.”
            Apollo grimaced. “Well, if you don’t mind, I’m going to collect these. They may be useful.”
            “Knock yourself out.”
            Bloody Bug moved as Apollo gathered notes. She stopped before a large locked door. She destroyed the lock and slid open the door. She froze as she stared in horror seeing Emilie Agreste’s body hung up in chains like a decoration. She staggered back and was caught by Chat Noir. He opened his mouth to ask what was wrong when he looked up and screamed. He turned his back as Porcelet rushed to his side to comfort him. Everyone gathered and gawked at the sight.
            Bloody Bug took a deep breath before she ran in and removed Emilie’s body from the chains. She put Emilie down as laughter filled the space. She rushed out and looked around as everyone stood ready. She narrowed her eyes as she eyed Nathalie silhouetted up in the rafters.
            “Marvelous, isn’t she? Oh, yes, she is, yes she is,” Nathalie cooed.
            “What the hell is wrong with you? Why did you do this?” Chat Noir roared.
            “So many plans. So many, so many. All gone, up in flames. Because of you. You stupid cat!” Nathalie hissed.
            “Enough of this. Mayura, Nathalie, whatever, let this end. It’s not too late to stop,” Bloody Bug pressed.
            “Indeed. You are an incredible mind with research anyone of credibility would go crazy over. You can still abandon this path and pursue other methods,” Apollo added.
            “Please, let this end amicability,” Pom Pom begged.
            Silence passed for a moment before Nathalie snickered that grew into manic laughter. Everyone cringed away when Nathalie floated down from the rafters. She grinned at them with a manic smile, pained, crazy eyes, and horrid black cracked lines on her skin. Bloody Bug blinked several times as Nathalie’s entire body had a white glow and the fractured prismatic light as a miraculous did.
            “Too late. Far too late. Too broken. Far too broken. Tried to save, but only one option. Yes, there was. Yes, there was,” Nathalie cooed.
            “You took the final step, didn’t you?” Bloody Bug demanded.
            Nathalie snickered. “Had to help my darling brother, yes, I did. Too broken, too lost. Didn’t want to be away, wanted to save him. Oh, the pain, oh the pain, but he was saved. But no need to save him if not for you, wretched cat. You used Father’s power to hurt my brother. You abused his power so much like your wretched father. Like so many others. Like so many others.”
            “That’s not true, and you know it. There are many that still treat the kwamis right. There are those that don’t abuse their powers,” Bloody Bug argued.
            “And who are you to speak? You’ve done nothing but abuse your powers and hurt people. You are no better than Gabriel or Eve!” Chat Noir yelled.
            “Oh. Oh, dear. Have I? I may have. But there’s a remedy for that. A remedy for all. Quick and easy. Fast and simple. Over and done. Good, very good. No time. Out of time,” Nathalie rambled.
            “Mayura, please. Whatever you’re thinking, you don’t need to do it,” Bloody Bug attempted.
            “That’s where you’re wrong, little Bug. Oh so wrong. Something must be done. Always be done. If no one else will do it, then I shall be the one. Yes, I will. Yes, I will.”
            “Nathalie, wait!”
            Nathalie’s snickering grew into manic laughter. Her pale skin changed to the light blue it was as Mayura’s, but with the black veins a bright fuchsia. Her sclera black and blood shot with the fuchsia veins. Her pristine hair a ragged mess and her dress ripped and torn. The ombre gloves and boots that faded into her skin receded closer to the wrists and ankles, making more of the veins visible.
            “What the hell-?” Bloody Bug breathed.
            Mayura laughed. “Clock’s ticking. Tic tok. Tic tok. Death’s a-calling. Do you hear its crow? No time left. Must act now. Must correct all wrongs. Must cleanse all.”
            “Cleanse? What do you mean-?”
            Mayura unfurled her fan as all the feathers lit up. Pom Pom reached for her ball as Mayura turned the blades to steel and struck Pom Pom across the chest, leaving a large, deep gash. Bloody Bug and Badb screamed out as Mayura was engulfed in dark blue light. Bloody Bug scooped up Pom Pom and grabbed Badb before Badb could use Uproar.
            “What are you doing? Let me go!” Badb yelled.
            “No! Bitch is already crazy. Don’t make things worse. Go! Retreat! All of you!” Bloody Bug roared.
            Bloody Bug threw Pom Pom into Badb’s arms and pushed them towards the exit. Bloody Bug lingered behind with Chat Noir as they watched hideous monsters were born from the light. They shared a worried look before they ran off with the rest of their team. They all retreated several blocks away as the warehouse was destroyed as monsters poured out of it. They all watched in horror as the monsters roared and rampaged. A handful headed for the city while all the others teleported away and Mayura charged forward in Primal form, ignoring heroes.
            “Oh fuck! Where did they go?” Minotaur yelled.
            “How the fuck are we supposed to know?” Bloody Bug retorted.
            “Well, what are supposed to do, oh fearless leaders?”
            “I don’t… fuck!”
            Chat Noir put a hand on Bloody Bug’s shoulder. “Focus on protecting the people. About three monsters and Mayura headed into the city, putting them in immediate danger. Keep them safe at all costs.”
            “What about Mayura?” Bomb Bee asked.
            “Leave her to Bug and I. We’ll hand her. Everyone move out!”
            Everyone exchanged worried glances before they headed off. Chat Noir took a breath as he looked at Bloody Bug.
            “What’s the plan for us if we’re facing crazy?” Bloody Bug demanded.
            “Well, I guess, we go primal. Meet her on even footing.”
            “Are you insane? Even footing? She’s at the final stage. She consumed her kwami. You saw it too, didn’t you?”
            “I… I did.”
            “Then what makes you think this will be on even footing? Just because we go primal doesn’t mean we’ll be able to stop her.”
            “I know, but we can keep her busy. You saw as well as I did. She’s broken, damaged. And, going off her ramblings, she knows her death is close at hand. If we can keep her busy, she’ll die from the exertion of her powers. Just like the one mentioned in the grimoire.”
            “Or, and hear me out, we kill her ourselves.”
            Chat Noir’s ears pinned back as he looked away.
            “Cat, the longer she’s left alive, the more damage she’s going to cause. If we end her now, we can save more lives that way because this bitch is going for the kill. If we don’t end her, everyone will pay the price. Finish what you started by damaging her miraculous.”
            “But-! I didn’t mean to-!”
            “Bullshit! I saw you. You went right for that brooch. You brought this onto her. You’ve already condemned her to death by damaging that brooch. Whatever you were thinking, you are far from innocent in this, Cat. Whatever you choose at this point, you are the cause of her death, and the longer we wait, the deaths of many more. So, what will it be?”
            “I… I can’t. I just… I can’t. I… I’m sor-.”
            “Fuck you’re so naïve, but I can’t fault you for that. Not completely. If you cannot, then allow me. If you cannot carry that burden, allow me to carry this one for you.”
            “I-.”
            “Don’t say anything. I’ve lived with the fact that, in another life, I erased an entire universe. It was difficult coming to terms with that fact. Something I’ve still not fully accepted, and it still haunts me from time to time, but not the way it did before. If anyone is able to carry this burden, let it be me. What’s one more to the tally?”
            Chat Noir grimaced. “Are you sure?”
            “No, but we don’t have time to hesitate. We need to act. I’ve made my choice. Will you stand at my side?”
            Chat Noir considered and sighed. “Very well. I’ll be there at your side to support you. End this nightmare.”
            Bloody Bug nodded. “Then let’s not waste anymore time.”

So, I'm on Redfin trying to get a feel for the housing market and what kind of house I might get once I have the money for it, and there's a pop-up that will not close. It's got this little QR code and right next to that is "download the app so you can have new houses at your fingertips!" I think I'm clicking on the X for a minute before it finally disappears.
One thing about the constant push towards "download the app" is just how little control you have over an .exe program on your mobile phone.
You can't block ads, you can't stop trackers, and you can't alter the appearance of the site via the app. You're at the mercy of the company whereas on a desktop, which has similar issues (esp with the monopoly that Microsoft has on non-Apple PCs), a lot of those problems can be at least mitigated or minimized with browser extensions or .exe programs on your desktop.
Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, Tumblr, Instagram, and Facebook are a quagmire of privacy violations, particularly through ads, and their want to push you towards using their less-than-stellar apps says more about how much the companies dislike how much control the user can exert through their choice-of-browser with extensions. Extensions created by people who want a basic user experience and not one controlled by algorithms.
Fandom, formerly Wikia, continues to push the narrative that "we have more mobile users than desktop users!" to justify making the website, already bogged down and redesigned with invasive advertisements in mind, worse and worse.
And they know they can get away with it because, at the moment, it costs money to escape that void and create an Independent Wiki. There is no Paizo-type non-profit platform where people tired of Fandom (dot com)'s shit can migrate away from them, and vibe as a fan-run Wikipedia. (And when there was one, it got consumed by the Fandom monopoly.)
I wouldn't be surprised if the push towards "download the app" was just the start of retiring desktop computers (among consumers) in the same way Video on Demand (digital downloads and purchases), and the practical death of Special Features (BTS Documentaries, and Audio Commentary), has become another tool for minimizing the necessity of physical media like DVDs and CDs.
None of this was at the request of the consumer, but damn if corporations and companies don't want people to accept that as the true narrative.

App Monetization: A Guide for App Developers in Scottsdale, AZ
Tumblr media
The mobile app market is booming, with millions of apps available across various categories. But creating a fantastic app is only half the battle. For app developers in Scottsdale AZ, like those at Net-Craft.com, a crucial question remains: how will your app generate revenue?
This article explores various app monetization strategies, helping you choose the best approach for your app and target audience.
Understanding Your App and Audience
Before diving into monetization models, it's vital to understand your app and its target audience. Here are some key factors to consider:
App Category and Functionality: Is your app a game, a productivity tool, a social media platform, or something else entirely? Its category and functionalities will influence user behavior and suitable monetization options.
Target Audience: Who are you building your app for? Understanding their demographics, spending habits, and preferred app interaction styles is crucial for choosing an effective monetization strategy.
User Acquisition Costs: How much will it cost to acquire new users for your app? Factor in these costs when determining your monetization strategy to ensure long-term profitability.
Popular App Monetization Strategies
Once you have a firm grasp of your app and audience, let's explore some of the most popular app monetization strategies:
Freemium Model: This widely used model offers a basic version of your app for free, with premium features or functionalities available through in-app purchases (IAPs) or subscriptions. This allows users to try your app before committing, while generating revenue from those who find value in the premium features.
Paid App Model: This model requires users to pay a one-time fee to download and use your app. This strategy can be suitable for high-quality, niche apps offering a complete experience without needing additional purchases. However, it can limit your user base compared to the freemium model.
Subscription Model: This model provides users with full access to your app's features for a recurring fee (monthly, annually). This can be a great option for apps that offer ongoing value, like productivity tools, fitness trackers, or content streaming services.
In-App Advertising: This strategy involves displaying targeted ads within your app. You can earn revenue based on impressions (number of times the ad is displayed), clicks, or even completed actions within the ad (e.g., downloading another app).
In-App Purchases: This model allows users to purchase virtual goods or services within your app, such as additional lives in a game, premium filters for a photo editing app, or expanded features in a productivity tool.
Choosing the Right Monetization Strategy for Your Scottsdale App
The best app monetization strategy depends on several factors specific to your app. Here are some key considerations:
Target Audience: Millennials and Gen Z may be more receptive to in-app purchases and subscriptions, while older demographics might prefer a paid app model.
App Complexity and Value Proposition: Complex, feature-rich apps with ongoing value may benefit from subscriptions, while simpler apps might be better suited for a freemium model with IAPs.
Market Competition: Analyze how similar apps in your category are monetized. Consider offering a competitive yet profitable model.
Additional Considerations for Scottsdale App Developers
Here are some additional tips for app developers in Scottsdale AZ, to keep in mind when choosing a monetization strategy:
User Experience is Key: Don't prioritize monetization over user experience. Intrusive ads or excessive in-app purchases can frustrate users and lead to churn.
A/B Testing: Test different monetization strategies and pricing models to see what resonates best with your audience.
Data Analytics: Leverage app analytics data to understand user behavior and optimize your monetization strategy for maximum profitability.

6 Digital Privacy Myths Debunked: How to Really Stay Safe Online - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/6-digital-privacy-myths-debunked-how-to-really-stay-safe-online-technology-org/
6 Digital Privacy Myths Debunked: How to Really Stay Safe Online - Technology Org
The internet is evolving every day, even in ways that we can’t see. This is because global communities of hackers are making greater advancements in the world of malware. International cybersecurity firms and government agencies do their best to detect and respond to cyberattacks, but it’s up to individuals to protect themselves as well.
Image credit: Fábio Lucas via Unsplash, free license
The best place to start is by ensuring you’re operating with all the right information. But there are a lot of dangerous myths and misconceptions out there about cybersecurity. If you’re building your digital privacy strategy on a foundation of fallacies, then you could be vulnerable to hacking activity without even knowing it. 
That’s why we’ll be debunking six of the most common digital privacy myths today. 
1. Using a private browser provides a private connection
Just because you’re using incognito mode doesn’t mean you’re really incognito. Contrary to popular belief, private browsers can still maintain details of your browsing history. How so? Although a private browser doesn’t save cookies or your browser history, it does maintain DNS data storage. This means that hackers may still be able to tap into your DNS storage to see what sites you visited. Yes, even on a private browser.
The most secure way to ensure you’re not being tracked is to use a tracker blocker. This is a nifty digital tool that helps prevent third-party web trackers from following you from page session to page session. Alongside bolstering your digital security, tracker blockers can also reduce the number of targeted ads you see online. This is ideal for anybody looking to browse with zero distractions and greater peace of mind.
2. Investing in just one cybersecurity measure will keep you safe
Does your front door have one or two locks? Chances are that many of us have both a key-access lock as well as a deadlock. Yes, that deadlock may not be necessary 99% of the time, but it sure does provide peace of mind. Cybersecurity measures work the same way.
Only relying on one cybersecurity measure is the same as putting all your hopes into one lock. But with enough determination, any lockpicker can surpass one security measure. So make sure there’s another barrier or two in place to ensure they don’t get to experience that instant gratification.
It’s recommended that you invest in at least 2-3 of the following digital security measures:
Antivirus software
VPN
Firewall (for your home/office network)
Password manager
Alongside these cybersecurity measures, it’s also imperative that you set up multi-factor authentication (MFA) on all your digital accounts. This ensures that hackers will need more than just your password to access your accounts. They will also need access to your email address or mobile phone number. And they’re less likely to have access to your inbox or SMS text messages.
3. Public WiFi networks are secure if they’re password-protected
Accessing the web while you’re travelling can always feel tricky. Even if you’ve invested in an international or local SIM, it’s still not ideal to rely on hotspotting everywhere you go. You just won’t have enough mobile battery to last you across the day. And whilst it may be tempting to connect to your hotel WiFi, sadly, there’s still no guarantee that it’s safe to do so, even if it is password-protected.
This is because hackers can do clever things like set up duplicate networks with the same credentials nearby. If you log into the wrong network, you could risk all of your user and device data falling into the wrong hands.
Similarly, some hackers may even be monitoring genuine hotel or restaurant/cafe WiFi networks. All they need is to have booked a room or a table once to gain access to the network password. Simply put, the network may be password-protected, but you don’t know who can access those credentials.
When in doubt, just rely on your hotspot connection. Or better still – use a VPN to make sure that your network connection stays encrypted and secure. That way, you can access the internet while on the go without sacrificing your digital safety or your phone’s battery life.
4. Only IT professionals are responsible for maintaining cybersecurity measures
Did you ever hear the story of a corporation brought to its knees by an administrative worker bringing in a USB she found in a car park? The simple act of plugging in this USB (which turned out to be a rubber ducky) allowed hackers to gain front-door access to that company’s data. It’s much harder to stop a cyberattack when you’ve welcomed it into the building.
Because of this, IT professionals have been encouraged to spearhead cybersecurity education initiatives in businesses. Yes, your IT team is responsible in that they have information to share. But once that information is shared and you’re well aware of your company’s cybersecurity policies, it’s up to you to do your part. Cybersecurity is a shared effort, and without every user and device on board, there will be cracks in your home or office network that opportunistic hackers can take advantage of.
5. Devices are safe from cyberattacks when they’re offline
As we mentioned above, even plugging in connected hardware can invite malware onto your devices. So, do away with this myth entirely because it’s been busted long ago! Hackers can upload malicious software and spyware onto a range of connected devices. This includes external storage drives (i.e. USB sticks and hard drives) and CDs. 
Even if your device is offline, hackers can still find ways to expose your devices to spyware that allows for remote monitoring. If their monitoring systems don’t work online, they can lay in wait until your device does connect to the web again. At that point, your hacker can take total remote control over your device.
So keep an eye out for any suspicious hardware or even software packages that look like they may be plagiarised or pirated. These hardware and software offerings can mask viruses like Trojan Horses, which can wreak havoc on your devices, whether they’re online or offline. It all depends on what code they’re programmed to run.
6. Hackers only target big companies
Lastly, if you believe that cybercriminals only go after whales, then you’re sorely mistaken. Although there are hackers out there who focus on hunting ‘whales,’ there are still tens of thousands more out there who go after little fish. Think about it – by widening your net, you can ensnare more victims. Securing financial or other valuable personal data from 200 people could likely provide a similar profit to securing data from a big company.
This is especially true if those 200 people haven’t invested in their cybersecurity measures. So don’t make yourself an easy target! With just a few dynamic security measures in place (i.e. a VPN and 2FA or MFA), you can make your accounts ‘not worth the hassle’ and prompt hackers to look for lower-hanging fruit.
A Few Final Words
How many of these digital privacy myths have you known to be debunked yourself? And are there any that took you by surprise? If so, then now is the perfect time to assess your cybersecurity measures and see how you can improve your digital safety.
