“Bitcoin Recovery”

Dave K.
9/11/23

I never believed in bitcoin recovery because I was made to understand that it is not possible. But sometime in February I fell for a binary options scam which promised a higher return and I lost close to $20k. I read an article on reddit as regards to a recovery expert and genius so I reached out to Blockchainrecall.com, and to my surprise I got all bitcoins recovered within 42hours frame. I don't know if I'm allowed to share the links on here but you can contact him if you are finding it very difficult to withdraw your funds at Blockchainrecall. Com

“Wrong Information: MakeUseOf's article about Truly Free VPN's is inaccurate.”

ED k.

MakeUseOf.com's service has two things wrong: (1) It's article about 8 Totally Free VPN Services is INACCURATE, at least as of May 14,2020, since ProtonVPN's service is only free for 7 days. That's misleading to call that "free." (2) Under MakeUseOf's COMMENT Section, it apparently does not accept comments anymore, e.g., to explain why their article is currently inaccurate.

Spying on the behind the scenes lives of celebrities and stars. The difference is that our eavesdropping and peeking is not done through the keyholes but via the popular media that these stars and celebrities are a part of.

I have read a lot of interesting and helpful stuff here. Some of the cheat sheets are useful, and they had a list of top iPhone apps that saved me some money because there were a lot that were free and better than some paid apps.
I don't know about viruses and spyware. I have an iMac because I am online mostly and didn't want the aggravation of always having to worry about what site I went to. I never had any problems, but then, I wouldn't because of my OS. If you are downloading anything, it is probably a good idea to have your anti-virus up to date no matter where you are.

Another URL SiteJabber cannot comprehend. THIS is where you point your browser: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/top-12-sites-watch-videos-youtube/

YouTube was created in 2005, but much like Google, it feels like it's been around forever. We post our videos on YouTube, look for some silly entertainment during boring afternoons and send videos along to friends.

But should you be limited to YouTube? Never! Let's be honest, there is a whole world of streaming video online that most people have never seen because they have settled for 'Family Sized' YouTube. Most sites have similar features, or features perhaps better than YouTube - certainly more 'specialized' and some have a more specialized selection or much higher quality videos.

So here is a small sample of video sites you should check out. Might find something you like...
