Except there are other companies working on this problem that don’t come with the baggage Musk brings with him.

One is even looking at using veins to insert the microchip.

Kalysta ,

This is republican assholes wanting to protect their oil wealth. Has nothing to do with workers.

Imagine actively destroying the place your kids live to get more money. They’re psychopaths

Kalysta ,

If you have an Amazon account, China already has all your info. This it congress trying to silence pro-palestine protesters and biden mad that TikTok doesn’t like him.

I hope this is challenged in court.

Kalysta ,

Foreign adversaries. What’s to stop them from selling to an ally and the ally re-selling that data?

If they’re this concerned they need to ban data brokers in general. And enforce those bans.

Kalysta ,

We don’t need a “hostile foreign entity”. Trump is doing that just fine all on his own.

Kalysta ,

I completely missed this one. Gross.

Kalysta ,

Reddit’s owned by tencent now? When did this happen?

As the Internet Gets Scarier, More Parents Keep Their Kids’ Photos Offline (getpocket.com)

Here's a non-paywalled link to an article published in the Washington Post a few days ago. It's great to see this kind of thing getting some mainstream attention. Young children have not made an informed decision about whether they want their photos posted online.

Kalysta ,

Growing up at the dawn of the internet, this was considered normal. You stay anonymous online because you don’t know who the person on the other end of the screen is. What changed?

Kalysta ,

According to my friends who use them - yes.

I’ve been married too long to check for myself.

Kalysta ,

Try pasting the link in 12 foot ladder next time. Works beautifully. https://12ft.io/

Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads (www.lowpass.cc)

Roku is exploring ways to show consumers ads on its TVs even when they are not using its streaming platform: The company has been looking into injecting ads into the video feeds of third-party devices connected to its TVs, according to a recent patent filing.  ...

Kalysta ,

This is gross. I cut my cable because of ads. Have about 3 types of adblockers on my computer to stop them. This hyper marketing is why so many have turned away from traditional entertainment to begin with.

I am more than the ability to spend money and it’s goddamn time everyone say this and boycott companies that do shady garbage like this

Kalysta ,

And when it turns out the thing he made is used to hurt his friends?

Kalysta ,

You’re doin god’s work, sir

Kalysta ,

Our tv turned out to be a roku tv. When we bought it this wasn’t advertised well. Which feels on brand right now.

Kalysta ,

The 1% is society.

When was the last time you, or anyone you know, had an actual voice in how things are run?

Kalysta ,

Adblock plus, flashblock, ublock, and one that stops videos from autoplaying but i can’t remember it’s name right now.

My roommate has raspberry pi but it messes with his’s wife’s work software so we never have it active. Which is a shame because i’d rather use that.

Oh, and Brave browser on my phone. It’s lovely.

Kalysta ,

While we have one (Pi-hole) I can’t use it right now because some of my roommate’s work software won’t run with it and we haven’t had time to troubleshoot. So I have a bunch of extensions in my browser on my pc

Please, for the love of God, VOTE! (pawb.social)

I don't like Biden either, but anyone with half a brain knows there are two choices in the 2020 election. If we had a sane voting system, voting third party might be worth it, but as it stands, no one but you knows your favorite candidate exists and unless you want to become their campaign manager that will still be true in...

Kalysta ,

Just like now with a bunch if liberals filling up my feed with vote blue no matter who bullshit.

Benjamin Netanyahu himself could be running as the democratic nominee and they’d tell me he’s better than trump.

He isn’t. Netanyahu and trump are two peas in a pod.

Kalysta ,

And you will make the exact same argument next election. And the one after that. And the one after that.

Kalysta ,

You told me this last fucking election and nothing has changed.

I lost my reproductive freedoms

I fear for my wife’s life whenever we have to travel out of state - she’s trans

Clarance fucking Thomas is threatening to undo gay marriage.

The democrats have done NOTHING for me. And instead i’m watching half of them cheerlead a fucking genocide of brown people in the middle east

How are they different from republicans? How is biden different than trump? He’s trying to pass trump’s immigration plan while letting Bibi murder his neighbors.

Nah fam. I’m officially giving up. People like you who refuse to hold democrats to account have made life worse for everyone.

Kalysta ,

Every fucking election in my lifetime has been “the most important in history”

You all have cried wolf too many times. If you get eaten, it’s liberals fault.

Kalysta ,

Back in the day, major news sites like the BBC ran ads that were infected with malware that then infected computers. These weren’t shady sites like people expect you to get viruses from.

Installed an ad blocker the day that news broke and never looked back. Ads are potentially harmful to your devices.

Kalysta ,

We’d have to abolish everyone currently in office and start over.

Which would be beautiful.

Kalysta ,

The Palestinians would liken him at least to the Emperor of Japan in WWII. Not quite Hitler levels but still supporting the guy

Kalysta ,

If Israel wants to be a functioning player on the international level they need to play by international rules.

What they are doing to Gaza is no better than what Russia is doing to Ukraine.

Kalysta ,

Hunter did nothing worse than what the children of most politicians have done. Hell, Joe Manchin’s daughter is the reason epipens cost $500 each. Why isn’t she being investigated?

Because the charges are bullshit and Manchin votes with republicans.

Kalysta ,

Wow. The blue no matter who liberals are downvoting a queer person now. It’s almost like they don’t give a shit about your needs as a person and only want to campaign on an abstract that is LGBTQ rights.

Solidarity with you, comrade.

Kalysta ,

Woman here.

I lost my reproductive rights under Biden and a democratic house and senate. They did nothing to save Roe other than howl at the moon and write strongly worded letters.

Fuck both parties. Fuck electorial politics. We COULD elect a green party president but people like you swallow the party line and spend your time yelling at us to vote for your shit candidates who don’t want to work for us instead of actually working to put people in power who want to protect AND expand rights.

I’ve been in this game a long ass time. The two party system will lead us to fascism eventually. The only way to win is to refuse to play their game.

Kalysta ,

Who are you going to vote for when 2028 is Mitt Romney (D) versus Marjorie Taylor Green (R)? Because that’s the path lesser-evilism will lead us too.

Kalysta ,

Backing up your point. Biden just agreed to ban the flying of pride flags at international embassays in order to get a budget passed. Democrats will happily sell out their voters once in office in the effort to be “bipartisan”. https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoniopequenoiv/2024/03/21/white-house-agrees-to-ban-pride-flags-at-us-embassies-in-spending-bill-deal/

Kalysta ,

And yet Biden refused to stack the court when he had the power too. And his party refused to codify roe into law since the supreme court decided the case in the 70’s. Obama even ran on codification in his first campaign and started out with a super majority.

It’s the fault of republican assholery and democratic lazyness.

Kalysta ,

Right? I feel like the person you replied to is one of the people I would avoid in public. Especially since they don’t show a shred of empathy for the real fear women in this country have of being assaulted or murdered by a man with anger issues.

And that’s not even getting into those who suffer from domestic violence.
