One of you doesn’t think Google has the resources to bypass the Cloudflare anti-scraping bot mechanisms. The other one does.

Please be civil and state disagreements clearly. Clearly nobody on Lemmy roots for Team Big Tech.

They can do their worst. I didn’t buy so much as a US sweet potato from the grocery store this week. Sure as hell isn’t going to be a car or an appliance from any company moving out of Canada.

Add overuse of structural, genuine, and that annoying “and here’s where things get interesting” fluff that you’d expect to hear in an old timey academic or business presentations.

For example, on pretty much every food blogger site: https://www.realmomnutrition.com/change-camp-snacks/

This style of anti ad blocker injects JavaScript that will replace site content with a warning to disable ad blockers.

Firefox-based browsers and ublock origin have no issues but with the related domains blocked at the DNS level I’m hoping to find a solution for family phones, and for other family members and guests who still use Chrome-based browsers that can’t negotiate script blocking.

No, I don’t think this is incredibly likely to happen. But like how some disaster prep agencies model zombie outbreaks to get people thinking about hurricanes and earthquakes, it’s a good thought experiment.

Let’s say out of the blue there’s an executive order that prevents US tech companies from servicing Canadian customers.

How hosed are you? Would you have access to backups of family photos not on Apple or Google? Does your email still work? Can you access your password manager? If you have a domain registered, is it still pointable to your servers?

I ask this because I’m trying to train myself to look for Can/EU alternatives in my tech stack for work and personal life.

I’m looking for a heavy duty rucking backpack, preferably to designed with pockets to hold weighted plates in the style of the GoRuck bags.

I love the quality but the way they lean into the military patriotism leaves a bad taste.
