This reads like it's straight from the comment section of a Facebook post and is low quality even for HN's recent discussion culture.

I'll bait, even though this is quite obvious a low-effort comment without any basis. If you would have read the article, you could have noted the following: > Max Schrems: "The pen…

There's also https://github.com/schollz/croc which is a very simple P2P CLI transfer tool.

That's definitely not true. Most hidden service use some darknet-specific captchas nowadays. Just open the next best darknet market or simply forum and you'll see what I mean.

> for health reasons I can relate to that, which is also a reason why I now _try_ to consume weekly newspapers (like the linked "Die Zeit") instead of the daily/hourly short-lived …

From my personal experience (at least the German) media focuses on that as well. I read a lot of articles on how the companies are working to scale the output up. One good and rece…

Where do you get that from? There's a huge effort to scale up the production up, which you can see by the weekly increasing output for example of Biontech [0]. Discussing one thing…

And this is just the tip of the iceberg. As described in the article, you can avoid this by hiding your "last seen" status. But why use the "last seen" feature, if WhatsApp also ha…
