@Tutanota@mastodon.social So, if they earn 2 billion a week, a fine of almost 3 billion is literally just a cost of doing business. This is pointless.

@cdarwin@c.im Well, Suckerberg is a creepy ass dipshit. I hope no one responds when their dumb mega yacht catches fire.

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online When Elon bought Twitter it became my corporate contact only, if I needed to contact companies and nothing else. When Trump got elected and I've seen what bs they were doing together including the literal double nazi salute, I just deleted it and opened Mastodon. Never looked back. I wish Mastodon would become the sane version of Twitter and now X...

@Thorium @EthicalProfessor I'm atheist and I like him too. I also liked Pope Francis. Seems like they are the new generation of popes that are more open and progressive and not stuck entirely in the old ways.

@_elena@mastodon.social @eff@mastodon.social It's wild how quickly everyone just fucking drops everything when "think of the children" argument is involved.
I fear how restricted internet will become when I'll refuse to "verify" my identity online. Because the whole thing stinks of speech control and how people think and has very little to do with safety of children. There is many ways to do that and none of them picked those options or methods.

@Tutanota Why do I have this weird suspicion they will keep trying under different name until it finally passes? Like they've all been doing for ages...

@FluentInFinance@mastodon.social In my country you can't even take loans longer than 8 years. If monthly payments can't be bigger you need to provide larger downpayment. Or you're told you just can't buy that.
Replying to
@eff I only had X for corporate contacts when everything else failed to contact companies for things and I decided to delete it the moment Donald Trump got endorsed and elected by Elon. Besides, Twitter has been shit in its last years and just got absolutely the worst when Elon took over. Nothing of worth was lost. I switched to Mastodon and never looked back. I just skipped BlueSky because it's the same shit as Twitter was.

@chatcontrol@mastodon.social @echo_pbreyer@digitalcourage.social They will just keep on trying this bullshit until it will finally pass in some mildly changed form (usually just the name of it). Every fucking time...

@Tutanota@mastodon.social Age verification is the greatest privacy invading nonsense and it's being pushed on all ends.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Why the fuck isn't this part of parental control on devices? When device boots for first time, it should ask who the user will be. Pick Child and lock it with custom PIN. Job fucking done.
Instead they are going the entire other way hoarding user biometric data, images and IDs. All to "protect" children. Get the fuck off.
Some claim this would expose children more. Um yeah, what does "unverified" does now? Same damn thing.
This is so fucking stupid and everyone just went on board.

@dangillmor@mastodon.social Ai is fine if it's used locally like their LLM local translation feature. I've been using it for many months, mostly to translate German webpages and it workes great. All local!
What I don't understand is the use of it as chatbots and other similar remote nonsense. Like, why?

@eff@mastodon.social The issue is not with me having or not having these dumb "smart" glasses that record everything for the big data hoarding corporations, the issue is all the idiots buying this shit and then recording all of us whether we consent to this shit or not. Now THAT is the real issue with all these "smart" glasses. I already know I'll never buy this crap from Meta or Google, what I don't know is who all is going to wear them and record us with them.
Replying to
@GossiTheDog How are people so blissfully ignorant about devices recording everything they do and expect data is handled privately and securely? By fucking Facebook/Meta of all companies?! They absolutely suck at privacy.
It's why privacy and laws about it are so fucking shit, because people just take everything for granted. Just like entire age verification thing now and what kind of MONUMENTAL invasion of everyone's privacy it is. But everyone's just like "okay". Dafuck?!

@angusm@mastodon.social Oh my god the dumbass Windows Widgets panel. So stupid and expects me to edit its bullshit in Edge for some reason and not its own settings to a point I just gave up on that shit and disabled it entirely and never touched it again for years.
Replying to
@itsfoss@mastodon.social How does this OS level age verification even works? You just set in OS "Yeah I'm 18+ years old" and you're on your merry way or do you need to somehow actually prove it with ID or shit? If it's just a toggle with no verification just as a tool for parents to use as parental control it's not really problematic, but I'm sure there's already abuse planned with it on corporate/government levels isn't it?
Replying to
@osma@mas.to Not entirely true. This post of yours came across for me as I was browsing Explore section on Mastodon.
Thing is how algorithms are designed and for prpfit corpprations constantly tune them specifically to maximize profits and make people addicted. Mastodon probably just serves it because I was roughly interested in what it shows me. No strings or conditions attached.

@Wuzzy How the fuck does this even work when EU told Google and Apple several times they can't do this shit?

@jon I wish Vivaldi had its own extensions store just like Opera still has and not depend on dictatorship of Google.
With own store you can still host ManifestV2 extensions like uBlock Origin, something you can't when using Google's extension store.
For starter it could only offer alternative extensions that are restricted on Google's own, but maybe later expand to be entirely own thing.
@sarahdalgulls@ecoevo.social Apparently Linus Tech Tips did ultimate backpack independently. Maybe worth checking out. They don't take off the shelf products and slap their logo on it, they actually design it on their own. Might cost a bit more as result tho.
Replying to
@protonprivacy@mastodon.social How about phone had parental controls to tell websites child is using it, not me requiring to prove I'm an adult sending my photos and ID scans to some incompetent dumbass companies that ALWAYS get hacked and expose our information. This is such idiotic concept it is wild.
This wasn't designed to protect children, this was designed to mass collect user information.

@Strandjunker@mstdn.social If this won't be a warning tale to never ever again have republicans in power, then I don't know what will be.
Then again when there will be prosperity for enough years people will want some fucked up shit and will elect a republican again. It has already happened how many times so far?
Replying to
@nixCraft@mastodon.social So they know who they are advertising to... it has nothing to do with child safety. Absolutely none. This whole verification will become such fucking privacy nightmare from integrity point because all this shit will leak sooner or later and there will be fuck tons of scams and impersonations from it. Like it's not bad enough already, they collectively try to make it even worse. But think of the children!

@molly0xfff Well, Google's Ai has probably been decoding or at least trying to for a long while. It's why they have such massive energy bill on Ai data centers...
It's why I prefer to just use Proton and assume no one but me can access the data. I've lost trust in Google over a decade ago.
Why is Samsung killing off Samsung Messages? I literally went with Samsung phone for this very reason years ago, they had own apps that were unrelated to stupid Google. And now they are pushing us on Google Messages. Why? Samsung, are you stupid? The more you do this the less reasons I have to buy another Samsung phone.
Such a stupid move...
I'd use Fossify, but it has no support for Galaxy Watch so that's no use for me then which sucks.
Replying to
@stux Not to mention everyone intentionally picked the most stupid invasive approach. Instead of demanding from manufacturers to offer simple to use parental controls for parents to moderate and control a device their child is using, they demand governments to become their nannies. All at expense of EVERYONE's privacy. And children won't be any safer because of it. There will just be more private data breaches as a result.

@jaystephens @mmantscheffau.bsky.social Interesting they call selling pirated stuff "Industry". I guess The Pirate Bay's only mistake was not claiming they are the industry and they were considered as thieves. Heh.
Oh my god this motherfucking Reddit. I said "Americans have so many guns and they can't get rid of a stupid dictator" and got banned for 3 days. Apparently mentioning the fact that Americans have 1st amendment is "glorifying and encouraging violence". Also I said the same few times before and motherfuckers banned me the same and then unbanned me after appeal. Now they claim I did violate their bullshit rule even though they overturned it before.
At least be fucking consistent you dumb fucks.
Google is bunch of idiots. They went into entire war with Apple with iMessage vs RCS and then absolute fucking morons make it depend on mobile providers to even support it. I just recently learned no mobile provider in my country supports RCS. What fucking good is everything about RCS if carriers need to offer it?
Every iPhone regardless on what network it's used will have iMessage. Meanwhile stupid RCS is entirely down to your carrier supporting it. How fucking stupid is this?!

@b9AcE@todon.eu It's like this so called "intelligence" has no concept of what info it's delivering, no understanding of it. Every child can figure out 2026 is next year and is the same number it was already presented. But Ai just has absolutely no concept of it.
