It's not just A&A either. I know I'm lucky as I live in an area that's had a relatively new CityFibre XGS-PON install, but I've got 2300Mbps symmetrical and 5000Mbps is coming Q1 this year.
Virgin Media also do Gigabit plus speeds and you can upgrade to symmetrical (they don't seem to advertise this though). That's definitely a household name.
I created a pure CSS stopwatch last year. Was a bit of a brainwave in the shower after I had been playing with CSS animations. I was quite surprised how well it turned out, it works exactly as I imagined it would.
I have messed around with mapping my location history and had some similar problems. Apparently I have been to Essex, UK although I have never been there in my life.
I tracked down the teleporting problem to the fact my tablet was at home and turned on. It seems you can't set location reporting per device, it is either on or off, so you end up being in two locations at once. I was going to look in to trying to remove problem points be setting a distance or speed threshold. That brings the problem of knowing which data point to keep and which to drop though, which I have not got a solution for yet apart from requiring user interaction.
In my case, my phone is the only device should report location data, and the times on either side of the teleport were correct, it just seems to be missing the trip itself. As far as removing the points, there seem to be plenty of points at the a similar time and location, so removing either one wouldn't be an issue. However it's currently one continuous track, and removing a point would break that.
My idea was to use speed as the constraint, give the points on both sides a label, and have the line between them be transparent. I just need to figure out that last part.
I recently switched from Adblock Plus to HTTP Switchboard[0]. I find it gives you much better control over what gets blocked, and it properly blocks what you have told it to, not just hide them.
I have it set up in quite a restrictive way so by default a site level scope is created and only image/css is allowed. It means I have to take anywhere from a couple of seconds to a few minutes to enable things a site needs to function, but I much prefer that to having tracking cookies, social media buttons, obnoxious adverts etc.
Also the Adblock site claims you can also block a few annoyances specific to Facebook[0]. Is that actually the case? I thought Adblock just used element hiding.
Initial ad blocking extensions for Chrome used element hiding due to addon limitations in Chrome. But for at least the last few years Chrome allows extensions to block requests.
Last week-end I introduced µBlock (or uBlock) [1] for users who do not like to deal with the more complicated HTTP Switchboard. It does rather well against other popular blockers [2], which shows that ABP does indeed block requests, not just hide HTML elements. Compare the numbers of domains reached with when no blocker is used.
That is true, and something I forgot to mention in my original comment. I do believe the author intends to eventually have it work on Firefox, but I doubt that will be any time soon due to the fact it currently relies heavily on the Chrome API.
Are there any guides on how to get started on penetration testing yourself? I'd quite like to run this experiment on myself and see just how much information I actually leak online.
So how do I manually check that my host supports this? I checked the list of domains and although I know I have sent mail to gmail address my host does not appear.

KeePassDroid is another good one for Android. It does use the clipboard though by giving you two notifications to click on. One for the username, and one for the password of the chosen credentials.
