  • Very skeptical of that one.
    They’ve been trying to target amyloid for more than a decade, and it’s the first time I hear of it actually working.

    The treatment seem to have huge side effects (brain bleeding and swelling) and lead to patient death during the study.
    Elly Lilly is also know for marketing zyprexa as a treatment for dementia (despite inefficacy and increased risk of death). Which is IMO criminal, at best unethical. I’m not inclined to trust them at all.

    I hope I’m wrong and it works. Alzheimer is a terrible way to go.

    Honestly I don’t think I’m technically adept enough to check this myself. I was following firefox privacy guides, and the (much more competent) people writing them were puzzled about those two.
    Of course it’s not necessarily malicious, but it has became hard to be trusting.

    In the end I kind of just gave up on privacy, I take mitigation measures as a symbolic gesture, but still assume someone’s watching over my shoulder whatever I do online. Not a good feeling to be honest.
