I’m still wondering: How do they prevent russian meddeling in the next election?

Yeah and let’s not pretend that everyone back in 2002 was eMuling or torrenting and cracking videos games. I knew so many people who failed at ripping a CD to MP3 or copying it with a CD burner.

Not just the nation - to all of mankind. To prevent people from accessing needed medicine just to gain money for your company or nation is a crime.

Apart from the whole issue with it being financed by a ruthless dictatorship: Aljazeera hasn’t got reporters on the ground in Switzerland. So they are just using some of the usual international news agencies for this. And therefore there is no reason to use a news site financed by a ruthless dictatorship, you can just link to all those other sources reporting the same or you might want to take a look at swiss sources, who might have more insight into the issue than an arabic news channel financed by a ruthless dictatorship

• It has the map corpus from OpenStreetMap, so one of the best in the world
• It works offline - just download the desired maps onto the device
• That makes it really, really fast. Google Maps is slower
• You can also use it in areas with bad reception. I’m using it for hiking in the woods where there is no cell phone connection available
• I really like the UI - they are f.e. better at displaying house numbers and street names than Google.
• No ads
