@obelix@obelix@lemmy.world this explains why they’re making age verification a thing on both social media and operating systems as well as capturing “rogue” platforms the become sufficiently significant enough like tiktok.

if they can prevent the youth from obtaining information that contradicts the indoctrination they’re getting from their environment; they can control the narrative and discourse in the future.

i’ve been thinking of doing this because i think life gave me a warning sign in the form of a facebook account. lol

i forgot i had created it sometime in the mid aughts and hadn’t used it since then; but upon a recent login, i got an reminder about an event i planned on attending.

i purchased those tickets using my proton email address and the venmo credit card (which was also registered to my proton account) and facebook knew that i was going to that event even though i hadn’t used facebook in (literally) decades and i didn’t know proton was a thing when i last used the facebook account.

impressive!

all of my furbabies instantly jump on the bed whenever i get close to it; i literally havent made the bed in decades because of it. lol

lineage already works on those

you have to look at it from a class perspective: it doesn’t matter whether or not tim cook or andy yen likes trump, it only matters that they align with trump to protect their profits above all else.

apply this to your threat model: if you’re a high enough profile target, how are you going to get the word out when proton caves to trump’s successor to block your access; or your equipment is seized; and/or if you’re sanctioned like huseyin dogru was, making you unable to pay anyone to get the word out on your behalf and your allies subject to similarly targeted and sanctioned for trying to help you.

Amen! I was using a note 13pro until all the carriers in the United States blocked it the month that Trump took office.

it wish that there was a privacy possum like app that pretended to be you to sign up for things that you never touch, look at or visit.

i started de-googling w proton w the intention of paying them like i did with my data w google for the last 25 years until the ceo voiced trump support.

google lured me in with “don’t be evil” at the onset of my walled garden imprisonment and any pro-trump message is several magnitudes worse for a new start.

i’m disappointed to learn that tuta isn’t ready, but i not aware of any alternatives.

just learned that i can’t since mine isn’t supported so i’ll have to try it the next time i need to get another vacuum.

Tuta’s catching up but they’re still years behind.

behind how? in service offerings?

neat!

i didn’t know valetudo exists and i’m going to try it since i’m not longer able to seperate my vaccuum from the rest of the network.

did you buy it with graphene preinstalled? i’m thinking of doing it this way through murena because i also need a new phone, but hesitating on network coverage in the united states.

because vacuum makers lock away advanced capabilities on the app making a home network the only way you can access them.

of course, when you’re shopping, it’ll use those advanced features as advertisements; but there’s no way to know that ahead of time unless you’re buying the most expensive models available.

are the servo creators as red pilled as ladybird’s creators?

BOYCOTT THE SUN!!!

we already are, that’s why there’s no mass adoption of solar panels and electric vehicles in most of the world despite both being dirt cheap from china and we’ve doubled down on drilling/extracting fossil fuels to the highest levels ever in history while simultaneously quadrupling our energy usage via datacenters for AI.

i’ve been avoiding using all the chromium based browsers because i don’t want to help google gain more dominance; but it feels like that meme of tom hanks shooting a pistol at the tank.

aka: the american strategy

Not sure why people would downvote this completely reasonable question.

it goes against the same sort of groupthink that maga and vote-blue-no-matter-who does.

it’s so ubiquitous that most people don’t even notice it.
