| > I love the bit where a programmer always proudly chimes in with this statement as if it means anything. So you knew that fierfox never came with google analytics but you decided to claim it anyway... |

| ▲ | sillyfluke 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | Not the parent, but I'm not sure I understand your reasoning. You download firefox. In firefox, you go to settings->Extensions to download extensions and get exposed to google analytics, is that correct? If that's true, how is it not insidious that in order to download the thing that blocks google analytics, you have to get exposed to google analytics? |

| > Why is it so often HN that I point something obvious out Because many "obvious" things are just plausibly sounding bullshit. For example: > Rockstar having clearly failed management and a complete loss of control That's both very broad and generic, and completely unfalsifiable, and comes with nothing backing it up. It's just an unsubstantiated opinion. These things are fine when drinking in friends, or otherwise socializing by bonding over ramblings. If you want to convince someone of something, the standards of evidence (not to mention, clarity of thinking) are a bit higher. |

| What? So 10 years ago you though 1+1=Firefox is using Google Analytics, something you can't prove, but is "obvious" and "recognizing patterns" I get wanting to be conspiratorial, but its not cool to go after others that challenge your conspiracy, even if its "obvious" |
