I'm in the US, and unfortunately, there is an escalating data threat with the latest Supreme Court Ruling that will allow uncleared parties (or poorly cleared parties) to access our government personal data. When combined with the broligarchy data, the aggregate of those becomes extremely dangerous to the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of people. Life is short, but we're in an emergency crisis, in my opinion. Data protection is a civic duty at this point. The carelessness could very well create a caste system here.

I never thought about that, but you're right. I was wondering why that kept happening.

Tried a search for jellyfin earlier today, and my tv youtube all would not load it.

I'm having trouble with that too. Maybe we should all start posting videos of cool stuff so it will take off.

It's hard to talk to people about this. Nobody seems to understand it. Kind of reminds me 10 or so years ago when the "I have nothing to hide" team ignored me as I warned about Internet privacy and the impact on swaying opinions and controlling experiences. This threat level is way higher.

Pretty bad when there is a group that makes the Heritage Foundation nutbags look like saints.

The tech is so opressive. My ipod is my favorite toy because I can listen to music and it doesn't track me and sell my info.

It's sensitivity to rejection that I think comes from being punished way more than normal kids due to "bad behavior." You'd think after you beat a kid 100 times and it doesn't work that maybe there might be another avenue they could consider. Now they want to say ADHD kids are overdiagnosed, and those excessive punishments will probably start happening like it did in the 1980s before people knew what ADHD was.

Yes there is. DXYZ.

What's more terrifying about robots that learn at light speed? ...ones that learn from idiots on Facebook.

They accurately recognized my face from a picture that was over ten years old. I no longer look like I did in the picture. This is going to get bad now that our fascist state authoritarians are everywhere jerking off with their riches and superiority. They have this tech and will do terrible things with it. Impending doom...
