Your AirNow EPA air quality report for Bellingham is cloudy with a AQI of 132 “unhealthy for sensitive groups” ...and now back to the show

*Chris - **iOS’n frustrate’n *

New in iOS 14 - Music App stealth advertising algorithms, App folders within app folders, widgets on homescreen (Hi Android!), App Clips (when you don’t want to REALLY install an app), Picture in picture mode (scattered attention)

It is nice to: see air quality in the weather app, uninstall those previously uninstallable apps, designate a default app other than an iOS one (Hi DuckDuckGo browser!)

Quality Assurance

Audio/Video:

*Chris: **The Social Dilemma* (https://www.netflix.com/title/81254224)* on Netflix.
*

Netflix says, “This documentary-drama hybrid explores the dangerous human impact of social networking, with tech experts sounding the alarm on their own creations.”

Chris says, “This is what happens when a company initially wants to connect people and bring people together from a distance, notices an evil, greedy, swimming pool full of money by selling users’ data and tracking unbelievable amounts of information about their online habits and history.”

*AJ: “doomscrolling“*
