They don’t plainly say against it no, but they’re still clearly distancing themselves from it. It’s not as good as outright denouncing it, but much better than staying silent.

They can force him out as CEO, that can do nothing about his co-ownership though.

Their statement reads

It should be obvious that Daniel’s private donation to a political party is not part of Mullvad’s values or mission, in the same way that someone’s opinions on animal rights, taxes or public healthcare policy isn’t.

They’re pretty clearly saying that they as a company have no part in this political support.

Frugally (legally) obtained HDDs are still going to cost you a lot of money, there is no way around that at the moment. If you need it, pay up and be done with it. If you just kind of want it, start sorting through your piles of data you don’t actually need (yes, you have that, stop lying to yourself) to free up space for things you do actually need.

Seems like it yeah

Av vänstern anklagas vi för att vara fascister och av högern anklagas vi för kommunism

Accused of being fascists from the political left and communist from the political right…not exactly a reassuring description IMO.

It means they’ve checked the logs and didn’t find anything suspicious at first glance, but just in case they missed something they’re covering their asses.

…or flat out lying in an attempt to cover it up.

It could be either, depending on how well they think they can contain this.

What exactly is this solution providing that just having a safari shortcut to the service doesn’t? Like, what’s justifying this costing money? It doesn’t sound like it’s doing anything for the user that isn’t already equally easy and 100% free.

Edit: sorry if it comes off as flippant, I genuinely just don’t understand the purpose of this.

I upgraded to OMV8 from 7 a few months ago, it was surprisingly easy without any issues.

With no actual deliveries in sight at all, it’s not really a serious contender for anyone actively searching for a car, even if they don’t need it right now, because it may be years before you can actually get it…if ever

The automatic emergency braking is probably one of the absolutely best safety features in “recent” cars…and i say “recent” because this has been standard equipment on all trim levels for probably a decade.

Also it’s so barebones it doesn’t even exist yet

I mean, there is a fairly good argument to be made for safety features that actually increase road safety. The tech and legislation requiring it is not bad, it’s the unnecessary data-hoovering that can go on top of it that’s bad. This is where we sort of rely on GDPR to provide at least some guard rails, although it isn’t currently enough.

Be very much aware that these old Renault Zoe use chademo for fast charging, a connector that literally isn’t used anywhere anymore so you’re relegated to AC charging. Oh, and a funny little quirk with them; they cannot charge with less that 6KW AC because of how they use the motor inverter. sometimes with public AC chargers this is an issue due to load distribution between multiple chargers.

Legislation can sometimes be a bit weird, so they might not actually be allowed to let you cover the camera despite allowing you to disable the system in settings. Most likely this system is restored to default enabled state every time the car “starts” because this is often a requirement for safety systems that can be disabled.

Driver awareness systems A.K.A. driver-facing cameras have been a thing for quite some time now, and they do in fact serve a legitimate safety purpose which is detecting if you’re falling a sleep or distracted from looking at the road. If you’re in the EU these systems are mandatory which is also why the car complains when the cameras are covered.

Unfortunately these systems can also be exploited for nefarious tracking purposes without any real way to know for sure.

Edit: they don’t use any “AI” for the detection AFAIK, just regular old ML (which may be labelled AI for marketing purposes though).

Loren ipsum…
