I seem to be logged in, in one window, but in another window, I show as logged out... and when I try to log in, I get dialog "you are already logged in". Never seen this before.

But when I decided to just click on a link like normal it all went away. I’ve had no trouble responding to links so I know I’m still logged in.

I was seeing ads, was listed as logged out, but when I clicked on log in, it said I was already logged in. Finally I clicked on a posting link and things went back to normal.

It's a fallacy that open-source is good. It's free. It's visible by all, but then ONLY people reviewing is are hackers, nation state actors and college academia. Everyone just grabs it and assumes others are checking it. What's worse is that the development communities have been infiltrated with hackers and nation states to inject code.

It seems to be working now. FYI, I also discovered Russian cookies again (.ru). I have no idea where I'm picking those up. This is the third time I've found them.
