We use AI, and we say so

technologytips.blog articles and AI Fix files are researched and written with AI. We tell you on About, on How we check, and in every article. Articles are published under the name James Theodore. Our system writes only from official sources it has quoted, and automated checks confirm every link, number and step. A person reads anything held by those checks before it goes live.

The sources decide the article

Facts and steps come from official sources: a company's own help pages, government and nonprofit guidance. Forums and communities show us what people are stuck on. They are never the source of a step.

Money

technologytips.blog is free. We don't use affiliate links. If that ever changes, every paid or affiliate link will be labeled next to the link, and money will never change what an article says. When we compare tools, we name at least two, say what each one does not do, and give the price from the company's own page with the date.

What we never publish

• Piracy, cracks, keygens or license bypass.
• Stalkerware how-tos, or any help to spy on a partner or another person.
• Ways to get into someone else's account or device, or to crack passwords.
• Malware, exploits or attack techniques.
• Ways to bypass an activation or device lock on a device you can't show is yours.
• Advice to turn off a security feature for good.
• Commands that pipe a download into a shell, or that hide what they do.
• Steps that ask you to give a password, code or key to an AI.
• Fear-selling, false certainty ("100 percent safe") or made-up urgency.

People, quotes and stories

We never invent people, readers, quotes or stories. When we share something that happened, it is anonymised and told as it was.

Reddit and other communities

We never post to communities automatically. When we share an answer, a person writes it in their own words, answers the question in full first, follows that community's rules, and only links when it is allowed.

Community fix files

Anyone can share a fix file through Submit a fix. Every submission is security-scanned and read by a person before it is published. We may edit it, ask you to change it, or decline it. Published files carry the license you agree to on the form.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it in place and add a dated note at the end of the article. If a fix file changes, its version number goes up. Please tell us when a step doesn't match what you see.
