WAT!? No internet!?

Megaphone appears to be a Spotify advertising platform for podcasts. https://megaphone.spotify.com/

Give us a link to the rss feed and let's investigate. I'm not experiencing this.

Reminded my of what happened at the MindTheTech conference half a year ago.

Automatic Content Recognition (ACR) [42] is widely used for second-party tracking in smart TVs. As shown in Figure 1, ACR periodically captures frames (and/or audio), builds a fingerprint of the content, and then shares it with an ACR server for matching it against a database of known content (e.g., movies, ads, live feed). When the fingerprint matches, ACR server can determine exactly what piece of content is being watched on the smart TV.

As a general stance "People want me to give them free shit. I say gtfo.", I understand you.

That's just not proportional to Mozilla and Firefox. In 2022 they had a total revenue of $595 million¹. That allows them to hire 3305 software developers at a salary of $180.000. Google was responsible for 81% of that revenue¹. If you remove Google and their influence from the equation you're left with $113 millon and Mozilla can then hire 628 software developers. I think that would be more than adequate to maintain a browser.

lol, I think we're giving too little credit to the marketing people in tech. I want to read their blogs!

You could try out Linux Mint¹, they're Ubuntu based and disable Snap by default².
