Location data firm helps police find out when suspects visited their doctor
A location-tracking company that sells its services to police departments is apparently using addresses and coordinates of doctors' and lawyers' offices and other types of locations to help cops compile lists of places visited by suspects

Goodreads Et Al
Recently people wanted to move from Goodreads to open alternatives to move away from the grasp of Amazon. I wanted to do the same so I moved to two or three apps and used them for a while. I stopped using them for one simple reason.
They don't have an extensive library of books, so when you start to read a book you can either spend several minutes adding all the information about the book you're reading into the system, or you can save time and stick with Goodreads. When you're reading audiobooks and e-books you might not have all of the relevant information.
Another flaw of these apps is that they have a monthly or yearly cost. Bookly wants 31 CHF per year, So does Bookmory. That's 62 CHF per year if you choose to have both apps, which most will not. With Bookly you can spend 150 CHF for lifetime ownership.
31 CHF per month, for apps where you have to manually enter the books you're reading. For that you could set something up in Excel or a similar app for free. We would pay, and we would get to do the work for them.
With Storygraph you get an experience that uses AI to give you more data about your reading habit but for this they charge 40 euros a year.
If they had a web app then this could make sense. With a web app it would take a few seconds to add books into the database. If we enter books manually on a phone we are likely to create duplicates and make mistakes.
The Experience
In my experience of Twitter, waze, Instagram, Goodreads, Strava, Zwift and more we start out investing in them, using them, giving them our data and then they sell themselves to the highest bidder. YouTube did this too. Yes, I love the ideal of independent apps, and yes I would contribute financially to use them but every app I have invested time and effort into has been sold.
It's not just that they get sold, once they have the right valuation. There are a dozen apps to choose from. How do we choose which app or apps to use How easy would it be to migrate from App A to App B, and from Goodreads to App C and from App C to Goodreads
Do you want to have your entire reading history on each app, which can take several days of effort, or do you want to use a different app each year, and with time choose the one you want to stick with
Initially I loved the idea of switching from Goodreads to other reading apps, until I realised how much work it would be, and then I reverted to Goodreads. It's just easier.
One Last Thing
Although I speak of all these apps Audiobookshelf offers me a "year in review" that is a little skewed. According to this app I have finished 43 books, read for 14 days, through 1263 sessions and counting. My top narrator was Larry McKeever, the top genre was Literature and Fiction and the Top AAuthor was James A. Michener.
Of course I did not read this many books. It's that this is how many books I added to Audiobokshelf as read, this year.

Wenn das Pckchen nicht ankommt, gibt es eine Mglichkeit zumindest die Entnahme aus der Packstation und die Verarbeitung durch DHL zu erfahren Gab schon mehrfach die unschne Erfahrung, dass die Packstation Tren mit den Sendungen von Dritten geffnet hat. Danke fr Feedback und Erfahrungen.

One more way websites track you: Your cursor movement. They know when you're about to exit the page and in which areas of the page you're interested in and not. They use it for various purposes.
An example is the Kamala Harris Campaign donations site. If you move your cursor away from the website, it automatically shows you a pop-up asking you to not click away and instead donate to the campaign.
Go ahead and try it out!

Btw, the site is built by Act Blue, not the Harris campaign.
FYI from Wikipedia: ActBlue is a nonprofit American fundraising platform and political action committee.
I wonder why they're still accepting donations! :thinkbread:
