Reply to comment by PrivacyOsint in Google Update Reveals AI Will Read All Your Private Messages by righttoprivacy
You do have a choice. Google does not read your email. Don't bring AI in.

Why can't we have choice and not be forced?

Out of the bunch, Wyden is actually decent on calling out issues like this.

I use it to lurk the official sub and other privacy subs that the site maker has good taste in featuring. I should note that teddit isn't down but being BLOCKED by reddit.

This is pretty obvious to most people. The whole Idea that "tHe aLgOrItHyM CaN pReDiCt fUtUrE cOnVeRsAtIoNs" was laughable to begin with. This isn't new tech. They've been doing this and we all know it.

There is a reason why they are pretty much just giving away smart TVs.

Honestly, I see no future for online privacy. No future for online at all. No future for technology since it's becoming outright malicious. No future for civilization. There will be few decades of rapid collapse, then many centuries of slow decay dark ages. Humankind will suffer greatly for this monstrosity they have created. Degenerated racemixed genetically maimed half-human that remain will envy those who have perished, for AI implementations will suck them dry until last drop of bodily fluids, then clone and repeat again and again until the whole machine becomes inoperable.

I don't get it. Why would a car builder wants to have messages or any personaldata at all? Every fk corporation collects data. MS, apple. For whom or what purpose? For ads? Are you kidding me, fk ads doesn't work (50%) at least if they come as ads? So they want to develop "a friend" who thencommunicate with me to manipulate etc. ? How much does it calculate into the profit? Car is shit, but profit is good, because we have so many data now..ppfftt Do they just dump it to someone who then sells it someone else. My shitty texts? Ai does not make it better if quality of data is somewhere fk. This looks to me like the all corporation=gov goal. One part of preparation for day x, when their plan has progressed. Everybody wants to be a important part of it.

Yep, this is a major design flaw. Then again, even from the start, the internet never had privacy in mind.
At first it was a bad design choice. Now it's seems intentional. Though, I know it's likely just lazy programming.

Definitely.
100%. And most not aware wifi devices share their saved network history with anyone listening (helping map out patterns of life / home / work / wifi use locations).
not_bob wrote
It's not just that. But, the fact that they are bluetooh or wifi enabled allows people you don't know to track you as well.
I can easily determine what bluetooth devices are near me. If a number of sensors were setup around an area, it would be easy to track people as they move around using just that.

Total bullshit. This is not OK.

I noticed drones flying in formation in an entirely different part of US this weekend.
Of course my sister thought they were 👽 aliens. Was a bit disappointed when I informed her. 😁

For some reason I was also under the impression that international airports also counted as borders as well. So, that would mean that every major city in the sates would be in that red range.
Food for thought.

What a loophole. Doubt most people living there have any idea.
