  • Lion Prowler Energy Power Bank review: Not an ordinary power source

    There are lighter more powerful charges on Amazon for far less.

    You can buy 2 x 10kmah chargers that support fast charging and more usb-c ports for less than this model.

    The rating is far too generous. 300 charges is also not very many. 

    I have a 20kmah model, can be charged over 1000 times peak output is 22w and paid ~£20

    It also includes a torch but no wireless charging

    I think people will be much more mindful what they publish once they know they’ve been snooped on. 
    So give criminal suspects a heads up that they are being surveilled? 
    no, if there is some criminal investigation then there should be some judicial process that can extend that time out longer than 3 months where necessary. If you've been investigated but nothing came of it then you should still be told that you've been investigated. It may be enough to stop some from going further into crime if they are on the fringes.

    If you think that your data has not been examined or analysed by the state in connection to nefarious things then you are very naive. The truth is they have not been compelled to notify you so you have no idea what they have and have not looked at.

  • New Apple iCloud Private Relay guide details what it doesn't cover

    I didn’t expect tethering to not work with private relay. 

    Nice of them to let us know before hand!!

    are other browsers or applications like chrome, Firefox, games able to use private relay?

    Would it kill them to make the USB-c bricks with more than one socket. 2 ports and ethernet would be grand. 
    I really wouldn’t be spending a grand on a power supply!
