Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

Most websites used to have way fewer ads and we blocked them anyway because of the ads with malware and them being annoying when they did show up.

Sure, I suppose if you are looking to kill a truckload of immigrants. Otherwise, maybe dont assume any warm body must be ICE.

That also happens to me on Windows 11 at work.

eh. To be fair, there are at least a handful of past Presidents who would mostly agree with the current one, in substance if not in form. Andrew Jackson would be going on Tucker Carlson, calling Trump soft on immigration.

Worse, tankies.

Right, also we should all hold hands and sing Kumbaya.

Okay, but… wtf does it do?

Yeah, no shit. Most sites on the web use Google Analytics. Film at Eleven.

you will unfortunately still have to hand them a load of money.

Uh, or just buy one used.

Silly vatnik, get your kremlin talking points right.
