How to use a VPN to access geo-restricted content and social media
I find that it’s not as simple as the article suggests. I use a VPN always, but in my own country, accessing Prime or Netflix is problematic. On a regular basis I am kicked off Prime or Netflix because I have a VPN operating. I am unable to access until I turn the VPN off. I haven’t researched why this is and I have never stumbled on how to fix it. This article has not offered any insight either. -
Look out MapQuest, Apple Maps debuts on the web in beta
lowededwookie said:StrangeDays said:ah yeah, Look Around, I remember that…had so much promise. But never materialized as I’d expected. I’m in a city with multiple pro sports teams and regularly hosts the Super Bowl, and Apple vans drove thru years ago…yet, no Look Around.
Next question. How do we get access to the web beta? I'd love to give it a crack.
My only missing feature I'd love to see in any version of Apple Maps is house numbering like in Google. As a postal worker, being able to see the addresses on the map when zoomed in helps a lot when making up delivery lists. It's the ONLY thing I use Google Maps for which is woefully out of date here in NZ. -
Apple reiterates stance on privacy as a human right in new interview
I received an updated privacy notice from my bank today. It basically authorises them to track and identify their customers by means of swipe rate and style, typing rate and regularly, usage style etc etc while using their App. We also authorised them to share this information with their security partners. Another person shared how their 18year old daughter was asked, and provided, her fingerprints (for id purposes) to the bank when opening an account. What shocked me was that my rhythm of use, like walking gate, could be that useful.
