I'm still using a first gen Raspberry Pi Model B to run an adblocking DNS server (github.com/0xERR0R/blocky), and PiVPN (Wireguard). For the most part, it works great except apt-update occassionally maxing out the CPU/RAM which causes my services and sshd to be killed.
LinkedIn pulled something similar a few years back. At the time, I was using the same password for both my email and LinkedIn account, and found that people from my email address book were showing up as suggested connections. I can only assume "consent" for this was buried in the T&Cs.
FTTC provides a decent connection speed ("up to" 76Mbps according to BT) but my main gripe with it is that I have to continue with the archaic process of "renting" the copper telephone line between the exchange and my house - for a sum almost the same as the broadband itself. Openreach have clung onto this cash cow by opting for FTTC over FTTP, forcing customers to rent a telephone line they don't want
I had this issue on Adblock too. It was down to one of the pre-installed blacklists - I can't remember which one. Try unchecking them one at a time
Worked fine for me initially, but after refreshing the page, I get nothing
I'm in the midst of using Ionic to build a simple app that consumes a JSON API and am finding it very good to work with. It seems pretty solid for a beta product. I'm new to Angular but it seems like you can get a lot done without knowing all that much about it's inner workings, which is great.
I would suggest sitting down and seeing what you accomplish using it for a few hours. I did this to compare Ionic and jQuery Mobile. The app is far from complete, but I'm liking it so far.
