The site wants to share info with advertisers. I found this to be refreshingly honest.
We and our up to 185 partners use cookies and tracking technologies. Some cookies and data processing are technically necessary, others help us to improve our offer and operate it economically...
Anyway, can we get an archive link?
The website also wants to drm fingerprint you

downvoted for that website's super illegal "pay us to not track you" policy
I hate that. I’m looking at you Healthline. I hate that it’s always so high in the results.

Well, I can recommend the soundcore anker life A1 earbuds for swimming, and the soundcore sleep A20 for low profile earbuds that dont stick out of your ear. Went through atleast 4 sets (wired and wireless) of earbuds for each until settling on these.
Just FYI, I would imagine anker have plenty of exploits but I appreiate the recommendations.

At least you can still get adapters for phones that don’t have it

What is that site asking me to agree to? No thanks
US websites don't even ask, they just do it behind your back.

Same. I can't find any Bluetooth headphones whose batteries don't die in 4 or 5 months anyway. Meanwhile my Moondrop wired headphones have been going strong for almost 3 years.

Indeed, I don't really see the problem. Instead of a single use port you have a practically universal port. That's better, surely.

Yeah but it was never a matter of "insTeAD Of," it's in addition to, meaning you get to use the same favourite set of headpdones you use with literally every other device while keeping the practically universal port free for other purposes at the same time!!!! 🤯🤯🤯
Now isn't that wizard?
