#TeamViewer is at it again: have to have an account, now can't establish connection with friends/family for tech support for more than 5 minutes at a time (with a waiting period in between), they say it "constitutes commercial use". Just used TeamViewer to install #RustDesk (rustdesk.com) and keep #HopToDesk in the downloads folder. Used it for years and years, now TeamViewer is gone for good, today. Proprietary software will no longer help me do what I need (and I do for free), so it has to go!
