Some people just have other priorities. As soon as you start moral grandstanding like this you better check your squeaky clean because I bet there’s something like this that can be said about you.
Speak for yourself. I have my own chip fab in my basement and I make my own smartphones and PC boards. I get all of the glass and silicon I need from local beach sand.
If you want one of my phones, graphics cards, or mother boards, visit my stall at the farmers market. I also pack my electronics in sustainable mason jars. If you return the jars I will give you a discount on my handmade hemp USB cables.
Hey, if we don’t let people in glass houses throw stones, then we’ll still end up with too many glass houses.

Another data leaks trap. It’s like Zuck is saying, “Come here, so I can get more data from you guys.”
Every policy about data collection is mandatory for users, with no difference from just setting it without asking.

Nobody cares. I don’t care about targeted ads. It’s fucking ads, not death by firing squads.

Do you mean those people who will respect and applaud decisions of huge tech corporations no matter what?
No clue. Some people are willing slaves.Why is big tech worse than big government
What’s the difference?
Government are behind the big tech
You got it backwards, big corporations own the government, but not limited to big tech. Oil and gas companies, Telecommunications, transportation, arms, shipping, retail and so forth.

I hate democracy so much. /s
When did he say that it was?
Dude in yellow shorts pissing over the fence has some serious pressure! I’m good for maybe 1.5-2ft vertical… Is this even possible or is it likely a water hose or something?
trust vs necessary.
I don’t trust them but they are a necessary evil for some tasks. like messaging apps, what use is Signal or other secure/foss messaging app if the people you need to communicate with uses meta products. so it is necessary for me to use meta products in order to facilitate communication with some group of people.
Operating system our company only uses windows and provide a laptop with windows as an OS. now why would I go to trouble myself in reformatting this laptop to unstall other OS when it isn’t even mine and would get me into trouble, not to mention break compatibility with my worke ecosystem. so, i use windows.
so yeah, it applies to others as well

I am pro-data-collection, yes.

I support the improvements in advertising, UX, and design innovation that data collection yields, and I reject utterly that it is an “invasion of privacy” with the same enthusiasm as I reject “keeping your money in banks is for suckers” and “the government tracks you through your phone”
Fears of data collection are conspiracy-driven and not grounded in reality. No one is upset about Nielsen “harvesting” TV data, as an obvious example.
Nielsen never actually knew what you were watching though. They had to take your word for it. The comparison would be if Nielsen had trackers on your eyes and cameras and microphones in your house. I do agree most concerns about data collection are overblown, but that doesn’t mean opening yourself up to any and all data collection is wise. And to act like there’s never an issue of companies taking your data for ill is laughably naïve IMO. If nothing else, unnecessarily sharing personal data exposes you as a larger target for things like identify theft.
I’m not really concerned with identity theft either, having worked in the credit/finance sector.
I’m a security professional too and you’re just yelling against an idealogy. These people want to be angry at big tech, they don’t understand the privacy concerns at all. Most of them still talk about Alexa spying on you.
Trickle down economics
wdym?
“People who think Apple is private”
This must be a meme
You should add some words on there
Big Tech: Drip, drip, drip.
Lmao, bro u good
Some people just want to watch the world burn
And fully naked in front of the world too
Small tech can be much nastier as they have less scrutiny on them. Think of all these companies writing spyware for governments/corporations around the world.
Hey don’t kink shame my golden showers
Technically a pisspost, not a shitpost.
