developments to this point:

The Verge is on it as usual, also--here's their latest coverage (h/t @dirtmayor@beehaw.org):

While tangentially related, if this shouldnt be here, let me know.

Reddit also appears to be experimenting with disabling mobile web access to circumvent ads.

They really want to cram those hegetsus ads down people's throats. I hope everyone migrates away to different options. Leave them holding turds.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
