Because EU, we cannot reverse some accidental Google Street View captures. Someone blurred my relatives' property at hirap ibenta hanggang ngayon. Outdated na Street View capture nila (2018 pa, at 5 years later dami ng pagbago sa paligid). Not all times EU is right, though. Google cannot reverse it (of course they can, but they will risk lobbying at EU, again).
A sideways, though, but okay...
I wish that replaceable batteries on smartphones make a comeback. Because of this, nagtagal ang first Android phone ko (Samsung Galaxy Mini) ng anim na taon. Phones with non-replaceable batteries forcing us to buy new one.
Oof. GDPR related to no? Definitely EU is not the whole paradise one thinks it should be.
I agree though, replaceable batteries and siguro right to repair. Then again I think ok naman yung right to repair seeing as there are quite a good number of phone repair shops. I just hope this country doesn't take the US route and gouge consumers' eyes out with exhorbitant fees at an authorized repair center.
Yeah. Many Google Maps users complain this feature, even from EU and N.A.
And now EU, may balak na mag-scan ng chats kahit sa mga privacy-focused services.
I hope so too. Mas convenient mag baon ng maninipis na Anker li-ion batteries na isasalpak mo lang and have a fully charged phone kaysa sa powerbank.
Thank goodness. Gagamit lang ako ng phone outside kapag may chat and email notifications. Kinabukasan pa icha-charge ulit.
