YouTube employees caught using Adblocker
A YouTube employee was caught using an adblocker meanwhile YouTube is working on blocking adblockers on its platform.
Looks like they want to keep all the ads to themselves. Can't blame them for wanting to protect their revenue, but it's always amusing when the tables turn.
Stay tuned to see who wins this battle of adblockers v/s. YouTube's determination to deliver more ads than ever before

POCO Curse is Inevitable
Twitter
Poco F5 was launched just 2 weeks ago Globally and in India.
A guy bought it new and after some time display started having issues and it even uses so called 12 bit display
It could be a manufacturing defect which is normal but what's surprising is even after re-tweeting and tagging in comments poco help support and professional CEO of Poco by several users and tipsters, Poco has NOT yet responded to the issues yet.
Poco support is helping but other users with their issues in Poco devices instead of this latest F'king Poco F5 device
Guy has requested for replacement from Flipkart since refunding money is not possible
Makes a lot of sense why they are giving 2 years of warranty again as quality is still trash.
Motherboard issues takes time to come forward, But display issues already arrived

Facebook Fined record-breaking $1.3 billion by EU Data regulators
Source
Meta has been hit with holy $1.3 billion fine (β¬1.2 billion) by EU data regulators over transferring the Facebook data of EU citizens to the US Data servers
Transferring data to the US is necessary for Metaβs vast ad-targeting operation, which relies on processing multiple streams of personal data from its users
The complaint dates back to 2013 and revelations by whistleblower Edward Snowden about US mass surveillance programs.
Previously, these data transfers were protected by a transatlantic pact known as the Privacy Shield.
But this was declared INVALID in 2020 after the EUβs top court found that it did NOT protect data from being scraped by US surveillance programs
The largest fine record yet was against Amazon in 2021 of β¬746 million by EU for similar privacy violations which Meta broke now
