Aava doesn't use cookies. What are cookies, in the context of information technology?
1) A piece of technology that is necessary for the functionality of any website.
2) Small text files on your device that websites use to store data on, and read it to get information about how you behave on the site.
Aava doesn't have upvotes, recommendations, algorithms, ads, and many other features you take for granted. This is because:
1) Aava has a small budget and not many developers, so it takes time to code in all those features.
2) Most modern websites exist to make money for their owners, so they're trying to make you use them more with addictive features. Aava wants to change this.
Which is true about the carbon footprint of Internet use?
1) When I use social media on my phone, I'm not just wasting my own electricity, but I'm also putting the service provider's server machines under load as well.
2) My Internet use only consumes the amount of energy that my own phone does, which is not much because I have a small phone.
Unlike competing social media platforms, Aava is open source. What does this mean?
1) If you right-click on the page in your web browser and choose "View source", you can view Aava's server-side source code.
2) Anyone can check Aava's front and back end programming. This creates transparency and trust.
