Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It used to be that you could leave airdrop on for everyone at all times.
Then China wanted to crack down on dissidents so Apple changed it to “Everyone… but one for 15 minutes”. Apparently it then made it’s way to ALL iPhones so now you can’t have any airdrop fun anymore.
That doesn't sound like fun it sounds like massive privacy violation and surveillance tool.
That's why I asked. If it can be turned off, why wouldn't you?
Because I liked playing the random meme airdrop game. 99% of the time being in the receiving end.
On a more serious note, it allows people to freely transfer information between each other in a method that can’t be controlled by a firewall / government / etc.
