As a person on a medication that has side effects that make me somewhat immunocompromised, I understand what you’re saying, and nominally agree - but at this point, they’re not going to fucking stop. If that end of the gene pool decides they want to make it even shallower, I can’t do shit about it, so I might as well hope for a silver lining.

Don’t forget

My days of not giving YouTube money have certainly come to a middle

They’re not “going rogue”. It’s all just a fucking marketing ploy.

I mean… absolutely fucking not on my baremetal. But at the same time, I wouldn’t really care about executing it in an appropriately sandboxed VM or container. And maybe that’s part of the test.

Ah - it has its own special magical file system type, that’s the secret sauce. Neat!

Flock’s surveillance cameras have already sparked outrage. WIRED reconstructed its next-generation AI system, already in use by some police, to confirm it goes much further than tracking license plates.

Burn it down.

Eat the rich.

Tbh I’m honestly kind of impressed at this point

I’m being downvoted because I pissed off some tankies a while back, so now I usually get a small handful of downvotes on most comments I make, regardless of the topic or relevance (or total lack thereof) to any political stuff. It just makes me laugh tbh, because karma is not a thing on lemmy :P

Go read Ministry for the Future 🫠

Tbh I’d be making a complaint to the practice, med org (if any) the practice is a part of, as well as the AMA. That’s absolutely egregious, and entirely indefensible as a medical practitioner.

are you sure about that

Critics say buying commercially available records allows government agencies to bypass safeguards that could require a warrant or court order if the information were demanded directly.

The SEC is controlled by regime flunkies now. This is an end-run of the 4th amendment.

ARC announced last November that it was shutting down TIP following pressure from lawmakers and reports about its government contracts. The program ended in 2025, but the newly released SEC documents reveal that its reach was far wider than previously known, and that overseas travelers were included in the system.

In related news, it was reported in March that FBI Director Kash Patel defended the bureau’s continued purchase of Americans’ location data, despite warnings from lawmakers that the practice sidesteps Fourth Amendment protections.
