I’ve been using this for many years. I’m not sure why you’ve chosen to pin this to the U.S. News community. It would make more sense to be posted to the Technology community. However, most people there are already aware of it.
So, might be a good idea to delete your post.
In the future, instead of copying the entire article into a post, please use an archive link instead.
