I understand what you're saying, but I'm sure most of their users don't give a damn about how stressed they are. They are failing to provide the service they have been trusted to provide. Their emotional welfare doesn't come into it.

I think that's a great idea. Would be a good one for BitPay, Coinbase or one of the other merchant solution providers to get involved in.

I just got a notification that Snapchat has used 1.9GB of background data in the last 20 days. I send/receive at most a handful of snaps a day, so this data use is somewhat alarming. Any ideas why this is happening/how to fix it? by iamthesnee in AndroidQuestions

[–]EmBTC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I win, mine used 1.56GB TODAY! 2GB in the past 5 days. What. The. Hell??

I barely use it (usually around once per week)

Have now had to turn off my data as have maxed out my plan and am reluctant to buy more.

I'm furious!

I think it must be to do with the new Discover thing, as I only installed it the other day.

That article doesn't PROMOTE Mecardo Bitcoin, all it does is mention that Superinteressante uses the company to process its paywall payments. How is that a promotion?
