    Je serai presque fier... si j'étais pas aussi outré et en colère que quelqu'un s'est dit que c'était une bonne idée de mettre de la pub sur un écran de verrouillage de téléphone....

In the begining there were websites. you visited them and it was fun.

Links and stumbleupon helped you find new ones.

Google actually worked and sent you to sites built with care by real people. 

Then came social media, and its algorithms determined what you clicked. 

Then aggregator sites took off. 

Then social media companies tried to keep us from ever leaving... and we didn't. 

Then ai began generating summaries so you didn't need to click through to a site anymore. 

Soon... the ai chatbot becomes the only source of information and real publications disappear. 

Until one day, people walk away and build something new.

            Deutsche Bahn (DB), a state-owned company under control of the gov of , is telling me when i try to buy a ticket or to log in (!) that "Your browser's behavior resembles that of a bot."

            Suggestion is:
            - change browser (!)
            - change network (!!!)
            or
            "If you are using a VPN client, anonymization tool, [iOS stuff], or third-party antivirus software, please temporarily disable it."

            gov. suggests giving up on privacy protection?

            -> DPA complaint?

            A screenshot from the Deutsche Bahn website (bahn.de) presenting the following text (only the English translation fits here):
