So they have no plans...(They have how many games? short of trying an mmo or switching it up 1st/3d person shooter they pretty much know how to make a mega man game)

Tried it in beta...didn't feel worth it. Just wanted more Black Flag style play.

a) need other and probably better sensors b) need to admit true self driving is a heck of lot more complicated. (consider all the things most drivers subconsciously handle with barely a thought that in fact a computer would have to "see," acknowledge and compute if action is needed and possibly act on while also dealing with the multitude of other factors . They have things mistaking big obvious things and hitting them. The common analogy of a plane autopilot is apples to oranges. The sky is more or less empty: some birds, weather...but air traffic controllers work very hard to keep planes a fair distance away from each other.

I've had the extension for a years and basically forgot about it but boy was it eye opening to see all the blocked requests it throws on adguard home. Not as bad as microsoft trying phone home but it's noticeable. (I've since removed it)

Not sure if it'd work on Netflix but my wife were pleasantly surprised to A&E and History apps on our apple tv suddenly forgetting how to do ads after I set up adguard home with a few extra filter lists...I did have to ok a few things the list blocked. But the apps work and seem to be adless, at least for now.

the better to farm your information to advertise too you and try to tie you in to more subscriptions.

Adguard, blocks most everything. Add their dns/adguard home on it and it's pretty solid.

On meta’s while it is flagrant screw you, they may have a valid argument. Human beings don’t actually need any kind of social media to survive, ergo it is a convenience or luxury that could be charged for.

I’m certainly not agreeing with them, but they may be banking on that style argument and their ungodly amount of money to fight it.
