Moderators hazelnut 5 Posted February 6, 2017 Moderators Share Posted February 6, 2017 When Google popped out Chrome 56 at the end of January it was keen to remind us it's making the web safer by flagging non-HTTPS sites. But Google made little effort to publicise another feature that's decidedly less friendly to privacy, because it lets websites ask about users' Bluetooth devices and harvest information from them through the browser. In other words, the API lets websites ask your browser “what Bluetooth devices can you see,” find out what your fridge, and so on, is capable of, and interact with it https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/05/chrome_56_quietly_added_bluetooth_snitch_api/ CCleaner documentation can be found here https://www.ccleaner.com/docs/ccleaner Support contact https://support.piriform.com/hc/en-us/requests/new support@ccleaner.com Link to post Share on other sites

Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last. Link to post Share on other sites

login123 0 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Wonder how clever those apps are at distinguishing words. Toaster, toothbrush, toilet, teapot. Cortana, turn on the toaster. NO, NO, THE TOASTER!! The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

Worried about why some files come back after cleaning? See this link:https://community.ccleaner.com/topic/52668-tracking-files/?tab=comments#comment-300043 Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators DennisD 0 Posted February 9, 2017 Moderators Share Posted February 9, 2017 Note: For your own physical safety and emotional well-being and in consideration of the nanobots' working conditions, please make absolutely certain that your toilet is unoccupied at the scheduled appointment time. That's brilliant. :lol: It's even better than mine. Nanobots turn up with no advanced warning. Link to post Share on other sites
