My old psychiatrist did exactly this. They said it’s due to the weed use. I got a new psychiatrist and he’s much better.

From what I have read regarding RCS it seems you are not wrong. I also read the tech it’s based on is ancient.
Yeah I am almost positive they do force itself back on sometimes lol. Though you are right that it shouldn’t share your IP. But like short of someone you don’t know having access to your WiFi it has to be something weird like that lol
Good to know about Usenet. I haven’t used it in a decade and have no idea what provider I was using. I was also younger and dumber so prob didn’t realize I could have just switched providers. Me at the time thought the dmca Usenet was more of a global issue. I now realize that likely wasn’t the case lol
I wonder if Xfinity hotspots could be this? Are you using their modem / router ?
Edit: also glad to hear Usenet is doing well. I switched to it a long time ago and uses for a bit. Though I remember so many items being removed due to dmca. All my downloads were just text files saying removed by dmca over and over again. So I ended up switching back to torrent via seedbox. Now I just use real debrid. Don’t feel like bothering with other setups lately lol.
Yeah makes sense for 5g home internet
Hmm I had my buddy go to this and he claims his download history has things he never downloaded. He doesn’t use a VPN and no one in his house torrents but him. Also he primarily uses a seedbox. Confusing lol.
Oh he uses T-Mobile home internet so prob shares a public IP with more than a usual ISP
Hey my parents live in this town. I didn’t know they still didn’t allow cars. Well I guess not anymore which is a bummer.
Comcast has been doing this for over a decade I believe. By default their routers advertise a hotspot exclusive to other Comcast subscribers. Not sure the security behind it since it’s not technically a password just authenticate via your Comcast account. But I agree it is crazy lol I had a similar reaction when I first found out.
Yeah states with Comcast caps you at 1.2TB unless you pay $50 for the unlimited plan, which I don't think is even offered everywhere. They discount it to $30 if you use their modem.
So true. I am happy I met my SO on tinder. Doing that data chart to see the numbers of my using tinder vs the only match who I went on a date with. The numbers are not in our favor. Now didn’t they release a 500/m plan? It is crazy. I know how lucky I got.
I personally enjoy it but I’ve been seeing a lot of posts / comments about people giving up due to lack of niche/interesting communities*. While I understand that I appreciate Lemmy for what it is. I get a lot more interaction here than Reddit.
