It is not. The BBC is public owned.

Are you really comparing state-owned agencies to independent media companies?

Thanks for this, I'm going to try it on my personal website.

That's really cool. I'm shifting my digital life from my MacBook to my iPhone right now - and blogging from my notes app sounds like an easy way to stay in touch with the world.

Axel Springer's biggest newspaper is BILD - and it's like the German version of The Sun in Great Britain. The reception section in BILD's Wikipedia article has some interesting "hi…

Great project. I‘d love to use Linux on a M1 and hope the developer makes it happen. Even adore the name.

This gets better every day. It‘s really interesting how Apple destroyed its heavily marketed privacy image in like two days. And instead of stopping they double down with every new…

For now.

I clicked the link. Those images look like modern, colorful and expressionistic art.

Thanks for your service.

Someone please post this to the Apple subreddit. I'd love to see hell breaking loose over there.

For now, yes. But people are worried that that's just the first step to get the snooping service onto your phone. Because why stop here? Soon it maybe scanning photos not just dest…
