    Even if you uninstall Google Maps, Google Play's background service is tracking your location 24/7.

    Crypto has a serious problem. We're stuck in an endless cycle of new L1 smart contract platforms. Each purport to fix the problems of the L1s in the previous cycles. These L1s rinse and repeat the same bizdev strategy of prior L1s, building copy-cat DeFi & NFT ecosystems.

    Remember BenignCertain, a Cisco exploit to grab VPN keys? Turns out current Cisco versions are also exploitable! tools.cisco.com/security/cente…

    It seems that with the latest versions of Android, Google Maps is on 24/7, waiting to send you notifications, with no way to disable it.
