Yeah! Firefox after a certain time (pre 2017 as mentioned by u) felt slow and sluggish compared to chrome but now in some cases it’s better than chrome

Again, why do we need to unnecessarily complicate stuff with multiple IoT options?? Why can’t it have a fallback offline like idk…a SIMPLE TIMER? Or is it another case of “AI integration” into yet another thing which doesn’t need AI!

PayPal Honey Under Fire: Affiliate Tracking Lawsuit Moves Forward
PayPal’s Honey browser extension is facing ongoing litigation over allegations that it interfered with affiliate attribution and redirected commissions from content creators. The case has now moved beyond the latest motion-to-dismiss stage. I broke down the alleged affiliate-ID replacement mechanism, Honey’s alleged stand-down behavior, the affiliate-network fallout, and what the June 2026 court ruling actually means.
Sourced from MegaLag’s part 3 update of honey video
thecybersecguru.com/news/paypal-honey-affiliate-tracking-lawsuit/Switched to edge after chrome notified that adblock and other manifest v2 extensions will be blocked. Edge did the same thing recently. Now switched to Firefox. Used to use Firefox way back in the day then left it due to Chrome but now Firefox feels like home. Surprisingly l, it’s faster in some cases compared to Chrome. Not a single regret after switching. Adblock stays which is extremely important esp after youtube increased ads

Claude Shared Chats Were Searchable on Google. Here's Why That Matters
Many people assume that an AI “Share” link is effectively private unless they send it to someone. That’s not how the web works. Recently, users discovered that searches like site:claude.ai/share and site:claude.ai/public/artifacts returned publicly shared Claude conversations through search engines. Some indexed pages reportedly contained resumes, company discussions, code, and other sensitive information. Google began removing many results, but the incident highlights an important privacy lesson: once a conversation is published as a public webpage, it can become discoverable

India Orders GitHub to Remove Jack Dorsey's Bitchat Repositories Under IT Act
India has directed GitHub to disable access to the repositories of Bitchat, Jack Dorsey’s decentralized Bluetooth mesh messaging application, under Section 79(3)(b) of the Information Technology Act and the IT Rules, 2021. According to the official notice issued by the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), authorities argue that Bitchat’s decentralized architecture, lack of mandatory user registration, absence of centralized logging, and ability to operate without internet connectivity make lawful interception and criminal investigations significantly more difficult.
