I was driving home from the dealership after buying my last car, and the second I felt the wheel jerk out of my hands to take a corner on the highway differently than I typically do (I still stay in the lane, ofc), that shit got turned off and will never be reenabled. One of the most dangerous things is the car doing something unexpected while someone is driving and they try to correct/overcorrect for it out of shock/surprise and cause a crash.

I swapped to Qwant over the summer and have had no complaints at all! Their ai-overview is very easy to turn off (and it stays off permanently, afaik) and the results are pretty comprehensive!

I’ve got my personal phone and a government-issued iPhone. The iPhone gets turned off as soon as I leave work in the evening and I turn it back on when I get to work. I only give out my work phone number, so I don’t get bothered when I’m off the clock. It’s pretty convenient tbh.
