You can bet your ass foreign spy agencies are laughing their arses off about this as they track whatever targets they like

What’s worse, is this was the plan all along

I didn’t choose it (not my video).

I’d encourage you to watch it anyway, if you can get past the trauma…

No, it’s not my video, and it’s not like I chose the thumbnail.

I’ll just say folks, this has left me with a “people just like to complain” vibes.

The video is excellent, and exposing how the internet is the wild west of companies lying, cheating and stealing.

Maybe you could engage with that, rather than the creator having to make a stupid thumbnail to keep the algorithm happy.

Literally any device plugged into a dumb screen is better than a smart TV.

The hardware on a smart TV is typically absolute trash. It’s why they’re so slow.

Edit: This includes laptops, which is what I’d use, why do people even consider extra devices?

Personally I’d make an exception to my moral stance that work as punishment is slavery, and would prefer to keep him around forcing him to work 70 hours a week, in addition to doing all the other chores required so that he can live - in prison - for the rest of his life.

Maybe we’ll make it 84 hours a week just for good measure, can’t be giving him a day off.

Seems more poetic

Does it really cost what Kagi is charging? I would love to see some research on this if people happen to know where to find such articles.

Like, in theory to pay for Kagi or a similar service but it’s just extrotionately expensive.

I pay for other service which are offered for free (like email hosting), but those are reasonably priced.

What the hell

Because of using Shelter, this will make my phone practically unusable.

This is fucking ridiculous

Yeah I’m the same (not really into that type of posting).

I basically want what Facebook once was, but with e2ee. Something like: you make a post, only people you’ve added can see it. They can comment, and if they choose, your friends can see that comment also.

Something to prevent mass scraping and data collection, while retaining the ‘keeping up with old aquitances’ vibe old Facebook used to have.

I really wish we had an end-to-end encrypted option where posts are only shared and accessible to people you’ve added. Some of us don’t wish to post our personal photos to everyone on the internet.

Either LLM or quality trolling

We really need some consumer protections around emails.

Imagine if your landlord could just intercept your mail on the same way.

It’s part of our identities.

We’re living in the Wild-West of the internet

The US lacks even the most basic consumer protections it seems.

In Australia, companies still try to give you the run around, but I am extremely confident this wouldn’t fly here. Even though I’m not a lawyer.

If you literally can’t get a hold of them, they’re breaking Australian Consumer Law, that’s a slam dunk to charge back the card and dare them to take you to your state’s relevant tribunal that hears cases like this. It costs either like $70 to file, you can represent yourself easily, and if you’re low-income, it’s literally free.

They don’t want to waste money on fighting you. If you’re confident you’re clearly in the right, it’s very easy to get a company to back down.

This is a great time to remind everyone to take photos before and after getting a rental car, because otherwise it’s your word against them.

It’s SO funny how apparently for almost 20 years we (as in the west outside the USA) decided that using Chinese cloud platforms or networking hardware was dangerous and to be avoided, but private US companies? Nothing to see here!

Silver lining of the orange man is that maybe countries will wake up and smell the digital sovereignty that we sorely lack.

I think the original commenter means that Google got off with a tap on the wrist

Should be at least streamed to a server not controlled by the police, including things like charge levels so they can’t claim “oh whoops, it ran out of charge!”. A specific organisation within the judiciary, perhaps?

This way they’re gonna need to get far more creative in concealing video.

And if you’re found to do something that is concealing evidence, well that’s a crime by itself

Surely Trump could have ignored them, as an official act of course.

The percentages of respondents in surveys on infidelity answering “not a moral issue” from France are a bit of a cultural difference (from Australian perspective, anyway)

🇦🇺 heh, amateurs… But seriously this is ridiculous, and straight up anti-democtatic. Single member first past the post is the worst voting system out there.

Inb4 they make mulit-member electorates winner-take-all (all seats to the party who got the plurality of votes).

This is THE fight USA. In my opinion, your ridiculous voting systems is probably why it’s so easy to suppress you.
