If this works in Europe, then Europeans are not smarter than Americans. The whole “why don’t Americans do something” rhetoric goes right out the window.

Why would every American buy one if they can’t afford insurance + medical bills to pay for health care? “Oh look, I’m having a heart attack. Good to know. Guess I’ll just keep working.”

Laws don’t work any longer. Only for poor folks.

Laced with fentanyl.

He’s basically gutting NASA so it can be reduced to a taxpayer-funded corporate subsidy for greedy billionaires and giant corps. They’re killing everyone’s dreams and inspiration.

This is the real reason for tarrifs. Forcing citizens into paying ridiculous prices so biliionares can circle jerk about how much more power they can get. They’re scourges and bottomless voids of resources and misery.

Billions of dollars, and they can’t afford to buy ebooks?

If this happens, can we please all make a protest or petition with the FCC?

They need a tech ethics board, and people need a license to operate or work in decision-making capacities. Also, anyone above the person’s head making an unethical decision loses their license, too. License should be cheap to prevent monopoly, but you have to have one to handle data. Don’t have a license. Don’t have a company. Plant shitty surveillance without separate, noticeable, succinctly presented agreements that are clear and understandable, with warnings about currently misunderstood uses, then you lose license. First offense.

Edit: Also mandatory audits with preformulated and separate, and succint notifications are applied. “This company sells your info to the government and police forces. Any private information, even sexual in nature, can be used against you. Your information will be used by several companies to build your complete psychological profile to sell you things you wouldn’t normally purchase and predict crimes you might commit.”

I’ve been trying to tell people for 15 years. It hasn’t worked a single bit. It’s frustrating that people think they have nothing to hide when their carelessness and lack of tech knowledge is ruining the future of the next generations. I just can’t try to explain it to everyone. They don’t link the relation at all. I thought maybe eventually, they would just get it, but here we still are…

I feel like the last on the list is on everything these days. 400 pages of ToS.

The trick is figuring out what parties do that without constantly sniffing traffic or reading source code. Sometimes I wonder what all on F Droid has malware.

He is not a leader. A guy who lets empliyees die in tornadoes because he just can’t let them off work is not a leader. A guy who polices employees so aggressively that they have to pee in bottles is not a leader. A guy who funds the celebration of a technoauthoritarian state is not a leader. A guy who violates antitrust laws to stamp out small businesses is not a leader. He’s a scourge and should be shunned. He’s extremely bad for society and probably our whole species.

What do you mean by dark patterns?

Yep. Dude bought the system.

This is the most disgusting comment I’ve seen on Lemmy. People got priced out, but we sure need leaders so lets bring more rich assholes in to fuck everyone.

So just use one too and blend in. Put on a stupid Trump or racist hat, and if you are not white, put on gloves. Then surround them.

No. There probably isn’t more violence anywhere else yet though.

I could warn you when you make the same mistakes and hope you’re smart enough to listen. Literally, nobody else I know has been, but one could try. 20 years, and people don’t need privacy because they “have nothing to hide.”

I can’t convince a single person to get off Facebook and stop using Gmail.
