It is giving false ideas.

As we can see here in the comments, people understand it as security. But it is only a method for identification.

It cannot tell you who carries the knife. Even if it’s connected to the databases of three letter agencies (or worse), it can only produce suspicion. Which is false, most times, and helps only the ones who sell surveillance tech.

And even for identification it is less reliable than people like to think.

What do these idiots think they’re gonna do when a good chunk of the population loses their homes and comfortable lives because of them?

They buy your houses from you and rent them right back to you. That’s what Nestle has done with the poor farmers and all their land (not just their houses) in Romania.

The world is beyond capitalism. It is a new feudalism now. Yanis Varoufakis was right.

They employ even more police (and more guns for them), so that you don’t get no funny ideas.

But if you get funny ideas anyway, they have surveillance of all phones and internet. You have read your George Orwell, haven’t you?

Btw I wasn’t aware XOR was encrytion…

It’s even better than ROT13, because you always need to apply ROT13 twice for getting the good results…

how do I know it’s manufactured to other international standards and not specifically American standards?

Well, you don’t need to know anymore now :)

But if you are in Europe, the standards are still in force. No cars may be sold that do not meet these requirements. The manufacturer must declare the conformity for each model, and in addition they are tested by independent organisations sometimes.

Stop Disenshittification.

Whoaaa… that’s a lot of logical negatives in just 1 line.

Cars aren’t safe anymore by standards and tests, they are now safe by declaration.

And Us American declarations are the best declarations in the whole world.

Therefore all the world is going to trust in Us American cars, finally.

And they are so much safer now than European cars, because Us American declarations are so superior to European safety standards and tests.

Why not ?

What do you mean?

What if the TOS was illegal why not ?

Or why not what if the TOS was illegal?

I have never heard of HP sauce

Don’t worry. Pretty much the same as Dell sauce.

We should tax BigTech anyway. Unconditionally.

sell their data (yes it’s their’s , read the ToS)

What if the TOS was illegal?

When will we finally start to call ‘waste of electricity’ a sin?

Yes. Having excuses can be a major part of the problem too.

I suggest to make ‘having excuses’ one of your former habits now.

how to oppose the allure of cruelty?

Value life itself, and health.

Life and health are higher values than money. That’s where the need for public health insurance comes from. That’s where laws against murder etc. come from.

But you can’t take this understanding for granted anymore. You have to think about it, and teach, and learn, and promote, and discuss it everywhere in society.

Note that this does not depend on a political party. You are allowed :) to, and you actually should discuss values with people from both sides, and more.

I could tell you, but then I’d get banned.

Free guillotines for everyone? /s

Everybody can push “send” on some random device and say “I am your President. Now listen…”

…unless they use encryption.

No. Never would I self-host a search engine.

The crawler would eat up so much more ressources than I am ever willing to spend.

Looks like you can qoute me on that.

share your screen or apps with the AI assistant

It is a desaster, but we should take it as an opportunity!

When it is watching, everybody write on your screens:

Copilot is crap!
Copilot is nothing more than a defect!
Copilot is useless!
Copilot does all things wrong!
Copilot should never have been made!
Copilot must die! Die! Die!

So eventually it gets depressed from it and finally kills itself.

I can wiggle my ears.
Both. And each one individually.
