TLDR: privacy law won’t pass because it would limit the government’s right to buy “commercially available data” on anyone without a warrant
This includes location data collected from cell phones that are capable in many cases of tracking people’s physical whereabouts almost constantly. The data is purportedly gathered for advertising purposes…
A government that actually cares about privacy wouldn’t be debating ‘should we be able to buy that data’, it would be asking the real question ‘why the fuck is it legal to collect and sell that data?’
Even if we pretend that data will only ever be used for ads, it’s still not fucking OK for advertisers to stalk everyone everywhere 24/7 (and every use other than ad stuff is probably worse)
True, I didn’t mean it as an insult to OP, just pointing out the ol’ tradition of posting very popular things on the forum for unpopular opinions
But we still check every time, just in case
Unpopular opinion: obvious stuff that 99% of the people here will agree with.
I used to get myself into traps like that a lot, “I need to get that impossible achievement”, “I need to play only at the highest difficulty”, “I need to get 200% completion”.
At the end of the day video games are just toys, play them as you like and if you’re not enjoying it just do something else instead. After I realized that games are fun again.
This ghost achievement in particular is a very hard challenge run, the kind of thing you go for after you finished the game and want more with an extra twist, trying to force it on your first time playing is guaranteed to be frustrating
It’s a huge luxury to be able to make money off something you love, even more to just be able to do what you love without worrying about money.
Meta has no interest in being part of the fediverse, it only wants to eliminate any posible competition.
The usual MO of buying the competitors isn’t posible on the fediverse, so the way to do it is embrace, extend and extinguish
Defederating is important because is Metastasis is allowed in the fediverse it will consume the fediverse, and then we’ll be right back at the corporate social media we’re trying to break away from, with the surveillance, ads and nazis being welcome as long as it’s profitable
That’s the point of step 2: inspect ass
If you find or smell poopoo obviously don’t proceed to brlbrlelebrbrbr (or do if you’re into that shit who the fuck am I to judge)
Mind elaborating a little more? Why do you think limiting violent abusers’ access to murder toys is bad?
I got better though
Taylor Swift turned me into a newt!!
Only OK if you also jerk off onto the pizza
(But that’s not mastodon’s fault)
Everytime I try to google anything that might be remotely related to a product every result will be a store.
I’d never have assumed that they just replaced my query but in hindsight it’s kinda obvious
Climate change is only this bad because a handful of rich assholes decided that those billions of deaths a few years away are a small price to pay for quarterly profit… So maybe talking about how it’s gonna affect the economy™ is the way
