I've been a happy ebayer for 17 years. Recently they added a new security verification process and I got locked out of my account. No way of getting through to them, so asked someone to send them an email explaining my problem.
After a lot of hassle I managed to speak to someone: No smart phone, no way of getting into my account. Byeeee.
This is the start. More places going cashless in the UK. If you don't comply you are out of the system.
If you use a Samsung, do not allow Google any analyitics, use fake accounts for play store, nav, etc, and disable all extra services, you aren't giving anything to anyone but yourself. Go a step further and use a prepaid mvno where you don' t need credit check
Vanced youtube still works, adblock still works, open nearly everything incognito other than your selling websites and this board
Waiting in line for something or sitting at a restaurant waiting for food while on this Q board or reading the drops....now you're playing with power!
Vanced has started having codec issues. ReVanced works well, and you can have it completely rip out the tiktok clone features.
