GM Tech Nerds. Google has been all over the place these past few years. Whether it's nuking tens of thousands of legit businesses or forcing AI down people's throats, the cat is now out the bag. More and more people are growing tired of Google, its monopolistic ways, and its data-harvesting. Case in point: PewDiePie just rallied his 100+ million YouTube subscribers, telling them to ditch Google, cut it out completely from their digital lives.

GD Tech Nerds. It's been a minute, right? But we're back with some tasty morsels for you, especially if you're paying too much for your current data plan (spoiler: you are; 90% of people are).

GD Tech Nerds! Hereโs a depressing thought: 86% of people pay for data they donโt use, and most of them are with big carriers and phone networks (if youโre in the UK). The big boys lure you in with extras and goodies, then gut you on expensive monthly plans for data you donโt even use. I switched to an MVNO three years ago, I use Mint Mobile โ the $20 plan. When Iโm in the UK, Iโm with SMARTY; its ยฃ15 plan is legendary. I donโt use unlimited data and I never go over my data allowance, and I...

GD Tech Nerds, Meta is working ceaselessly to create fake humans that can talk and look just like real people. The new tech it's doing this with is called MoCha โ it's not available yet but it'll be coming soon enough. Here's what MoCha can ALREADY do... The goal? No one really knows. Apparently it'll be used in movies (not on Brain Cranston's watch, though) and games. Or, for artificially boosting Facebook users (pun very much intended), finally competing The Dead Internet Prophecy once and...

GD Tech Nerds, Where are you on the AI in search debate? Me โ I donโt mind it, I just wish there was a way to switch it off. Googleโs approach is heavy-handed, risky, and comes at a great cost: the death of the open web, if nothing is done about it. You cannot hide behind the sofa, pretend itโll go away. AI is here to stay, whether we like it or not. But DuckDuckGo proves you can do AI search in a nice way, without forcing down peoplesโ throats and killing the entire publishing industry in...
