unrequited··on Chrome's next weapon in the War on Ad Blockers: Slower extension updates
Not sure about the larger impacts of V3. But, we have gone with V3 since the beginning, and now there is a better turn around time for reviews, typically in an hour and sometimes 24hrs max. Its been a much smoother process rather than having to wait for couple of days or even weeks sometimes earlier. I've heard it being much worse on V2.
unrequited··on Web fingerprinting is worse than I thought
Asking the wider audience here, I have uBlock origin installed on my Chrome browser, while I surf mostly on the incognito mode. I know this is no where close to an optimum setup, hence asking. What setup do you folks use to prevent the best you could from being tracked?

unrequited··on There are real reasons for Linux to replace ifconfig, netstat, etc
This is slightly off topic. Netflix has transformed the output of netstat to have more immediate visibility. Its good to have something like this.

unrequited··on Why I left Google to join Grab
I'm sure you must be speaking from a country where everyone is employed. The ground reality is how businesses like these create tons of indirect employment feeding their hunger. This is often overseen as we can't imagine in someone else's shoes.
