Is anything really hidden from different isps, or is it all a serious big data miner?

Big Data Miner. I read there is a big data center in Utah that records all internet traffic. That how they know what these criminals look up on the net before committing their crime.

Nothing you post anywhere is private, my wife found those nudes you sent me and was not happy.

If you don't have a 4K dashcam, you are tempting fate and flirting with disaster.

I have a Vantrue 3-channel camera in my SUV. It records 4K out the front; HD in the cabin; and HD out the rear window; along with audio, all the time. I had a hardwire kit professionally installed so it's always on. (That requires a microSD card that can read/write that amount of data, and I bought a Samsung Pro Ultimate card for it. And the polarizing lens filter.

The dashcam paid for itself in an instant last month.

The Darling Bride asked if she could take my beloved SUV to the Smoky Mountains for a fly fishing outing (I'm smart enough to not say "no"). While driving on a curvy mountain road, a dirt bike came flying around a blind curve and struck the SUV head on. The video proves the Darling Bride was doing everything right (cautious speed, both hands on the wheel, eyes on the road); and the dirt bike driver was doing everything wrong (high speed on blind curves; suspended out-of-state license; no insurance). The video was slam-dunk evidence that he was completely at fault.

Monday, my SUV goes in for about $5000 in repairs... and you can bet the insurance company's well-paid lawyers will go after HIM for the money. On top of his broken legs and hospital bill; and his legal trouble; and his busted-up dirt bike. He's 27, married with 3 young kids. The Darling Bride and I are prayerful that this will be his wake-up moment to get his life's priorities in order.

In retrospect, I am SO happy I let her take my SUV. Had she taken her sedan, he would have gone through the windshield. We have no doubt of that.

I'm glad she wasn't hurt Chief. Automobiles are just transportation and in the scheme of things just a material object. Good luck with your repair and good on you for your cameras.

I gotta be honest, if your post is more than like 5 sentences long, I just ain't reading all that

Wow, happy anniversary to ME!

I first joined Android Forums on November 17, 2009... right after release of the Motorola Droid. It was so awesome to find a place so welcoming to newbies who wanted to learn more about their devices.

It's still like that, which is why I'm still here 14 years later.

 

[olbriar]

That's a great run Chief!

So my sister has a verry boring system UI default of her og launcher of moto g 2002, I want her to convert to a much user friendly one without the razmataz of doing something so user forgetful. So my question is , should I help her with a minialist one or a word list one?

Painted my suite in my other house the last coat of Recycled green on the other wall, just ran out of paint, luckily that did cover my bedroom wall as well as my bookshelf case, I first painted it lightly with green I just meditated on that idea today. Was in my own house for a change today and just visited with mother for a bit.. Dusted my bookshelves too..
