Got a Groupon subscription through this company and it was a teaser rate which was a gift for a nephew. Then months later got a charge for $50 though Blue Dolphin which apparently was a inflated regular price for that $5 teaser rate. Interesting that when I looked up this on their web site it was automatically enrolled in annual renewal.
We cancelled when we discovered this but were charged anyway. I think companies that by default automatically enroll you in auto renewals are deceptive because many times they don't even notify you of a pending charge. This is especially deception when the subscriber rate goes up significantly over what you originally agreed to. No I would not recommend any one subscribe to a magazine through Blue Dolphin.

Sometimes results are good and sometimes not even close. Any site needs revenue to survive and since users are not paying for DuckDuckGo I am sure its receiving revenue from somewhere. So do not confuse privacy benefits from target results that benefit DuckDuckGo supporters. Yeah I get that DDG does not keep your personal data but it has to receive some data to give any sort of accurate results. Google searches are probably not very focused on privacy but if you do not use a Google account its not logging your results in any specific identifying way. For me its all about good results and DDG is still hit or miss for me.

If you love Google services I guess don't bother reading this. I used to use Chrome all the time, but clearly Google now prefers you sign in to Google with Chrome all the time and especially with Chrome 69 it does so automatically. Chrome is now officially a Google data miner exclusively and if you don't want to share every aspect of your Internet life with Google you better pass on using its browser. This privacy thing was not such a big deal until last year or so when I realized with sites like Facebook, Twitter, Google that you cannot trust these entities to protect your information. After all Facebook and Google make a lot of money from ads, and they target those based purely on what your doing on the web. The browser has become a perfect conduit for data mining. Chrome clones are much better options to retain some privacy and still benefit from Chrome's eb compatibility.

So I made a mistake in buying a Lenovo IdealPad 110-15isk from Best Buy. I thought I was getting a great deal, but instead I think I bought a dud. This laptop is lacking in many areas such as a lousy Elan touchpad, one mono (very small) speaker on the bottom no less. Plus a inability to add RAM without replacing the current RAM. Only has one slot for RAM, and disassembly isn't very easy either. Battery life not great even with a low powered Intel i3. Hard drive is typical 5400 Rpm's and the. 3 MP camera is horrible, not even usable. I can't believe Lenovo even bothered to install a camera? All in all I wished I had taken back this laptop within the allotted time frame. Its probably the worst laptop I have ever owned.

Would be nice to have a site like Disqus actually work for people to comment. Without being degraded, made fun of, or called names because somebody finds it amusing to make rude comments and not really ever contribute to the topic. Obviously we all know some of these kinds of people who now have a platform to shout out how great they are and how low you are. These people are why many sites are dropping comment altogether. Probably just as well. Disqus is not helping in maintaining a respectable comment site for discussions.

I kept getting a call from a cell phone number. Never left message, nobody on the line the couple times I answered. So I decided to find out who it was. After doing a free number search
With Spokeo the result gave me the impression they had some background information on the number. So I paid the $1.95 and basically got the same limited information I got in the free search. A email to there customer service got me nowhere and all I can do is warn people don't be surprised if you just waste $1.95.
I did request a refund and Spokeo did process a refund for $1.95 and offered a free search.
So I will give them credit for decent customer service.
