Plain three words:
not my computer
|
|
|
|
|
I do not understand what this means.
|
|
|
|
|
That means that I'm not going to install or configure things on a computer that is not my own.

If you are saying you are using a plain, unprotected browser, then you have bigger problems then ads. You are probably already infected with something. Ads are serious malware vectors.
Best of luck.

2. Install uBlock origin
3. Block Google from the firewall
4. PROFIT!

How do you not use Google?
Bing is sh*t.

May be sh*t, but I would rather choke on my own vomit than use Google/Facebook.
|

I use Google for most stuff. Evil empire - perhaps, but their sh*t works.
I do not do facebook, or snapchat, or twitter, or anything social media, minus LinkedIn.

My FireFox is set to wipe all cookies when I close the browser. No problems w/CP setup. I would imagine they'd be kept on CP's side - or so it seems.
As for Ads, I added Addblock+ to FireFox and they go away. Actually, you need to enable them on CP if you wish to do certain things, like having rollover of a users name show their image, etc.
You may also get so airplay out of BetterPrivacy and Ghostery.

Is a fumigator a large, angry reptile?
Very early today, as I have to go out and don;t know when I'll be back. Something to do with "getting a life" apparently.

Would a cross between an elephant and an alligator be called an irrigator?

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Something stinks about this. Sounds like just another croc.

This is what I want...
- A human walks up to a place which requires previous approval to get in the building.
- The human claims to be Samuel SpecificGuy
- The human places his two hands on two pieces of glass
- Two scanners take a look at them
- Software compares these two scans with previous scans of his hands which are on file
- The software indicates the level of confidence that this really is Samuel SpecificGuy
This can't be a brand new idea. I mean, really; checking hand size to help guess if the guy is an impostor ? I've seen the same at least once, without a human; just software granting access to places with pretty important security restrictions.
I'm NOT talking about fingerprints !!! Just hand size.
I asked google and bing for something about hand scanners and I got a bunch of hits about bar code readers.
Could somebody provide me with a vocabulary lesson as to what I should ask, e.g., phrases that google or bing might understand ?
