good morning!

Or not so good morning...
Is anyone else experiencing heavy downloads running in the background? I stopped using my laptop when my data usage showed more than 3 gb after a normal morning's activity that usually runs a couple of mb. This morning on this tablet I had neglected to close the Alpha Romeo tab and noticed it was indicating activity even though I was in a different tab. Can someone smarter than me check that out?

I usually have 5 or 6 tabs on my tablet. If I understand you, I'm using data even when I get out of the browser?  I have no idea how to check my data usage.  My only internet access is through my cel or tablet and I'm on an unlimited plan with Verizon.

I use my phone's hot spot, and it tells me how much data has been shared, updating instantly. When I noticed this morning, the Alpha Romeo tab was still open and the little 'busy circle' was spinning on that tab, even though I was in a different tab. Then I looked at my data usage on the phone, and it was up to 490mb when I had only been online a couple of minutes.

It’s all geek to me 🤣🤣

Our desktop took a crap & the laptop is a pain in the butt so I use my iPhone 98% of the time & have it connected to a old Apple AirPort Extreme and I keep wondering how much longer the Apple router will last 🤣🤣
