This sounds like a load of corporate bullshit that they’re going to use to justify preventing modding of their games.

That seems like a pretty reasonable thing to do if you’re taking a picture of a milkshake.
What the fuck are you talking about?
I haven’t and likely can’t think of a good solution to handling the scenarios you’re talking about. They are good questions that someone smarter than me should address. However, to use those scenarios to completely admonish advertising platforms for blatantly obvious scams is asinine. “Well, what if a legitimate business starts scamming people?” should have little relevancy to the question of “Should we accept this ad from a user advertising that they’re going to double your money if you give them access to your financial accounts?”
I’m not saying it’s simple or quick to solve, but there is very obvious low-hanging fruit that could be dealt with but is somehow not because these platforms aren’t held accountable whatsoever. It has to start somewhere.
Uhhh maybe they should find the time to do that then? How is “we don’t have the time” a valid excuse? Either hire more staff to do so, or sell fewer ads.
Oh yeah. Marlboro Reds and black coffee got me through some rough fucking mornings in my early 20s.
uBlock Origin doesn’t doesn’t by default, but apparently you can enable a filter which removes tracking params from your URLs. I’ve not personally used this, but I use an add-on called ClearURLs which does something similar.
It makes food taste like shit and by extension you want to eat less. At least, that was my experience with smoking for years. When I quit I gained like 40 lbs.
If there’s a passenger, at least in my car, the system recognizes it and let’s one type with the touchscreen.
Fair enough. I do admit, I went through a number of USB cables in a previous car that didn’t have wireless. However, I don’t really see how restricting access to AA would solve your maps issue. So, rather than not being able to use your phone to look up a detour (which I have done, by unplugging my phone, selecting a new route, then plugging it back in, which isn’t great), you now just look up a detour on your phone and then what? Don’t use the car’s navigation at all?
Yeah but I also already pay for a phone and am tired of being nickel and dimed at every opportunity. The price of the service isn’t necessarily the issue – it’s the fact that there is a price to begin with.
I have wireless AA on my Civic and I literally get in the car, turn it on, and my phone connects automatically. It’s very convenient. What issues have you run into?
I’m not the target audience for this to begin with, but I refuse to own a car ever again that doesn’t have Android Auto. What a bunch of anti-consumer bullshit. What are the odds GM starts charging a subscription fee to access apps on these vehicles?
Oh hell no. Permanently drunk it is.
You will still be able to play on community servers which will continue to use EAC.

Yup, same. I love Path of Exile but very, very rarely ever made more than 1 character per season as I hate doing the campaign.
I feel for everyone who is losing their job, but whoever greenlit development for their latest dumpster fire should not be working in games.
Why are you intentionally leaving out the rest of that sentence?
They are specifically talking about restricting modding.
