Could be it's a requirements for their payment processor, and details like that aren't something you talk openly about freely.
Also, you will have sites that u lock will break beyond repair, so try is the correct word. I know this well from using Brave, which is even less than uBlock does, and even then some sites are still broken and requires the shields turned off. Just an unfortunate reality with today's web.
Quite frankly no one should be using captchas at all. They are mostly pointless, and AI's have reached the point of being able to solve them. It's mostly just a gratis thing at this point... The illusion of trust and safety, probably for both users and providers.
Considering Purism is running a pump and dump scam with their phone, I wouldn't grace them or their website with a single cent. There are worse things than a potential privacy issue...
It's likely something out of their control. I imagine their payment processor either uses it, or requires the site to use it. Mostly to combat automated fraud.
You likely won't find any site, that has online shopping, that doesn't use some sort of way to gatekeep against this behavior, unless it's crypto-based. And even then it likely still has something like that. Even if the site redirects to Paypal, you're gonna face that.
Your approach simply isn't realistic to the modern web. You can try uBlock, but blocking those connections likely will make the site ultimately not work for you.
Good bot!
Haven't looked at a lot of Rust front-end GUI libraries recently, eh?
Ah, another post on a great new addition to the Fairphone lineup, another post where the top comments are complaining about because there is no headphone jack, they won't consider it.
Y'all seriously have your priorities messed up if that's what keeps you from supporting Fairphone. If having a device with a headphone jack is that important to you, invest in a dedicated audio player. You can get some with high quality DAC's and more. But seriously, y'all need to cope about the Fairphone not having a single feature you want being a total deal breaker. That's honestly petty...
I'm honestly surprised GOS hasn't supported the FP yet. CalyxOS has for about a year or so now, and I imagine they'll support the FP 5 too.
Yeah, I hope the FP5 will come to the US officially too. I know the FP4 could work here, but it apparently did have issues with a carrier or two, or something.
Hopefully the 5 will bring true support for US markets.
I'd definitely try CalyxOS first, as it'll be the closer experience to what you've had in GOS. There's also DivestOS as well, but you're gonna be more limited there since it won't have MicroG (be default, not sure if it can be added in?) So it won't have any real access to play store apps. You'll probably get another 2-3 years out of CalyxOS on your pixel 5 if I had to guess. All depends on how long they can keep the security updates going for it.
LineageOS is a fantastic option, and eventually even when CalyxOS stops getting updates, LOS is absolutely a good choice to continue in using your device for long after the official support window. Just make sure you go with the version with MicroG so Play store apps mostly work as they should.
