Back in June, I saw a pre-print paper from Google about which APIs Malicious/Ad SDKs use on Android to fingerprint and track users. This made me want to respond with an article about how Apple is much better at privacy but I ended up writing an article about the iOS equivalents for fingerprinting users.

Something strange about Sunnyvale (vs Phoenix) is that Sunnyvale gives you until the 5th to pay rent (vs the 3rd) but only gives you three business days (vs 14 calendar days) before eviction if you can’t pay on time.
Update: I got a one-time loan (that I have to pay back by the end of the month) from a predatory lender so I didn’t get evicted two days ago. But I still desperately need help to cover things like medication, medical appointments, and internet access (I’m three months behind in paying Comcast, sigh).
Any help would be greatly and significantly appreciated!
