Firefox having an empty check box on Blocks cross-site trackers is a lie.

Ignoring isolation is misleading - in this marketing context a plain lie.
They could have made a differentiation between all-blocked vs some-blocked, but empty indicates none are blocked, which is a lie.

I can’t say anything about it’s quality, but Wikibooks has German.
Looks like it may be worthwhile as a or an additional starting resource, but maybe not more.
Nothing is an annoying, confusing brand name.
yt-dlp supports various sites and authentication options (may have to take over from webbrowser). I don’t see an explicit extractor in the source, but it may work anyway. It’s what I’d try first.
A public forever storage of all transactions is not good but bad for privacy.
Send money to someone and they can see your wallet and all transactions.
Identifying wallet owners may require different levels of effort. But that’s kinda besides the point.
(Aside from the other issues) A DVD may not even retain it for 15 years

Hardly something to bet on for continued availability.
I’d suspect your VPN is slow before suspecting ISP throttling.
you --> ISP --> target
you --> ISP --> VPN --> target
You’re introducing VPN, with different network routing, and a routing middle-man, and suspect ISP before VPN?
First huzu now suzu. Are we gonna be able to fill the alphabet?
Their comment started with mentioning laws. That’s more than betting on only kindness.

I can’t get what it describes through all the Jedi stuff and jokes.
One mentor and one apprentice? And everything else remains unspecified and open?
For FOSS, as it is described, it makes me think it’s a big investment with unclear risk (will they even stay as a contributor?). Which of course can be contextualized - but then what is left here?
Act now
I was expecting some suggestions to act or unite in opposition. The linked post has none of that though, despite its title. It’s a rant/criticism, not a call to action.
I sometimes do things (cleanup, refacs) off-ticket / not part of the ticket. It can be a light alternative when other stuff is complicated and demotivating. Depending on your environment and team/contract setup, simply doing it could be more difficult though.
If it serves your satisfaction and productivity, and is good for the product, then it’s not wasted. Not everything has to be - or even can be - preplanned.
I assume this is about the hosted platform WordPress.com, not the software you and others can host and offer.
Or Modified Viable/Valuable Product
I don’t have experience with that in particular. I’ll share my more general, tangential thoughts.
MVP is minimal. Extending the scope like that makes me very skeptical (towards scoping and the processes).
Everything you are concerned with would be important topics for retrospectives, or even meetings with management. But of course those don’t exist or are open in all environments. In my team I could openly raise such concerns.
If you’re always rushing to a deadline, or feel like that, think of what you can do and influence to improve that. Retrospectives? Team disuscussions? Partly tuning out of management given focus and doing what you deem important and right? Look for a different team or employer?
Some sometimes open up for a time.
Remember, when we do that, we are getting a binary file. But in my imaginary example, we are getting a ‘video description’ in form of PostScript.
The example is a reference/link with handling instructions.
When I think of video metadata, we already have and use formats for that, in a more general and versatile manner.
Maybe I’m missing the point, but sending instructions is a very different and restricted approach.
I like that we describe data and how it shall render. That way, the data is accessible for various interpretations and uses.
I wouldn’t use it.
Seems to me like free plan is what browsers natively support anyway. (Scam site blacklist. I highly suspect they use the same. They can’t compete with the one Google hosts and all major browsers integrate.)
And instead of paying 15 usd per month, Windows defender is a well funded, well established, well trusted solution.
There’s no practical gain in blockage before download. Windows defender scans upon and after download, before execution.
