I mean, they called it “Incognito”.
Incognito: having one’s true identity concealed
If it doesn’t conceal your identity, then that’s pretty clearly misleading. They’re not selling to experts, the users of this are laypeople. It’s like if you sold a “waterproof phone” and the packaging all made it look like it could withstand water, but then when it got wet it broke and you were like “people just assumed it was waterproof, it’s not our fault”.
Sure experts could tell, and enthusiasts would read the expert opinions on it, but that’s not something you should expect of laypeople considering how it is presented.

USB-c has a bunch of futureproofing in it, like a bunch of pins that aren’t used yet. And even without those pins, is supports usb4v2, which has 4 lanes of PCIe 4, and they keep doubling the speed every minor release of usb.
If we get to a point where those other pins are needed in the next decade, I’ll be surprised.So unless there is something physically problematic with the connector, like after all this time we suddenly realize that the design causes failure in some common scenario, or material science leaps ahead and the port becomes too large for consumer devices, then it’s probably good that they’re not making a new standard.
PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the longest you've gone without a shower/bath. Why?4·18 hours agoProbably a week as a kid, when camping. But I’d swim every day which kinda caps the grossness to an extent.
Also before puberty I’d go days between baths.
Enough time progressed and it’s just normal porn now.
You’re gonna get HOW MUCH CP?!?!
PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many of you use Lemmy and ONLY use Lemmy vs Reddit?6·2 days agonot quite
I nearly exclusively use Lemmy over Reddit, mastadon over xitter and Facebook, pixelfed over Instagram, (“nearly” because I still have the accounts, in case someone needs to contact me there). Although Lemmy is the only one I use frequently.
I still use YouTube and tiktok instead of peertube and loops though. They’re just not big enough to host the content I’m interested in.
PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you could add any new rule to a sport or game you enjoy, what rule and why?5·3 days agoSports in general need to make it illegal to dive to draw an undeserved penalty (or actually enforce the existing rules)
Or
They need to decrease the penalty for fighting so it doesn’t result in an ejection.One or the other.
PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Would you become romantically involved with someone with vastly different religious views?41·3 days agoIt depends on how passionate about their religion and how the aspects of that passion affects people around them.
I’m a former/non-practicing Christian, and I consider myself agnostic or atheist now.
I married someone with a religion from an entirely different family of religions than Christianity, originating in an entirely different part of the world. The way their religion really affects me day-to-day is that there are certain ingredients we don’t keep in the home for cooking. Really not a big deal.
But I can see dating a zealot (from a different religion or not) could pose problems

PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Am I the only one who thinks social media has destroyed the spirit of the internet?5·3 days agoThe spirit of the internet was dead long before that.
It definitely desecrated the corpse, though.
I feel like Werner Herzog would have some kind of depressing commentary about this
I think he means that of you initialize the variables, it becomes simpler but still unambiguous
“local Incognito” is some real mental gymnastics. If the witness protection program told people they’d help them go incognito, but only hid them from their own families and made it easy for strangers and enemies to find them, would you really consider that be what a reasonable interpretation?
Stop defending people who use shit like huge ToS docs and dark patterns to weasel out of deceptive marketing
