Cameron (Nafessa Williams) is lying low after being convinced she’s…

The company confirmed to me that it is moving in a direction that other platforms have taken: converting users to the app. Reddit says that the test aims to find out if people like me—those who use the service but aren’t generally logged in—get a better experience with the app. I often prefer the open web and don’t really want one more app cluttering up my phone. And while I’m open to learning about the “much better” experience in the app, hardball blocking tactics seem an odd way to educate users about something supposedly in their own interests.

The ASUS RP-BE58 is the direct upgrade to the RP-AX58U, which came out a few years ago. The two share the same shape and size.
