Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

A new way of viewing pictures on Facebook

A new way of viewing pictures on Facebook

These days, users have started noticing a novelty on Facebook.

Namely, it is a new way of viewing images and video clips. The existing "Lightbox", which was white, was replaced with black, and the field with comments, descriptions, and likes was moved to the right to give the images more space.

The original change was the introduction of a black "Lightbox" that users didn't really like so that Facebook would make that black one brighter, whiter, after a while.

But that was not the solution either.

There were problems with displaying images with higher resolutions, but now that problem has been solved to some extent.

Images will be displayed in as high a resolution as possible depending on the size of your monitor. Example: Open an image on a 1024 × 768 monitor, it will be smaller than when you open it on a 1440 × 900 monitors.

In the previous image preview mode, the images were displayed in one size no matter what monitor resolution you have.

You can do a simple test like this: Open the image, expand your browser as much as you can and then reduce it by 50%, and what happens to the image?

In the old way of viewing images, the image will be the same size, while in the new one the image will change its size.

Do you like it? Already got a new way to view images? :)

New Google mobile internet saving application - Datally

I wrote an article on how to save internet traffic on an Android device and I suggested the Onavo Extend and Opera Max apps because they were the most popular back then. Meanwhile, Opera Max has been discontinued and Onavo has been completely redesigned and is now a VPN application with the option to save internet traffic. Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link . Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called " Datally ".

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.
