Documents show that ICE has gone back on its decision to not use location data remotely harvested from peoples' phones. The database is updated every day with billions of pieces of location data.

    Nearly every weather app that exists is repackaging data from an official, tax funded source

    The weather source. Not the application source. A dude needs to sit down and write that part.

      Sure, and it would be cool if that dude didn’t pass my personal information to a third party.

          I think the last time I tried a bunch it came down to Breezy and Cirrus. I think they’re pretty similar but I settled on Cirrus for whatever reason. Here’s a link for anyone interested.

          You’re having an argument with a voice in your head or something. I’m just going to tag you and go about my morning. Good luck with whatever it is you’re dealing with.
