seeing as copilot says at the start of every conversation that it will be recorded, not to mention their massive (non)privacy policy and terms of use, this isn’t really news. this is just a fact

alternate headline: company looks at data they tell you they will monitor

if you got it from Amazon, they can preload your account and wifi details that you previously used with their products

I kinda assumed this was the case, and some higher ups likely know this too. I know in Ontario, when you get fingerprinted by the police, it’s not just your fingers, they’ll take your whole palm print. Billions of people in the world, very unlikely anyone is 100% unique.

If it’s legal for women to be topless in public, why would pictures of topless females be in this law?

Our government really is dumb. Plus, it’s only going to expose the kids to sketchier and possibly illegal stuff. If big porn players step up and do verifications, there would surely be dozens of sketchy sites popping up left and right to fill the void of providing porn.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. It’s been great having a rolling release distro that I don’t have to worry about breaking with updates

Time for guaranteed basic income. Just bring back CERB and make it permanent

I haven’t trusted CTV since they were bought by Bell. Nothing owned by Bell can be trusted. All they care about is money.

It exists and people hate it. If you want reddit go to reddit.

Ugh, the possibility of accurate reporting and display of what’s really going on?

DISGUSTING! Sweep it under the rug and spout opinions as facts!

As much as omegle was a cesspit, there are already even sketchier alternatives up and running. This will be a wild goose chase with no end in sight unless sites like this get rid of all privacy and log every single interaction and step up their moderation.

Like piracy sites and other illegal/grey areas, take one source down and two more will appear, or however the saying goes.

I switched to Vivaldi a couple months ago, and previously used brave in the past before growing to dislike it. It surprises me how many brave-heads ignore Vivaldi’s existence. It’s just a better Brave. No crypto BS and lots of poweruser features.

Because adblocking is free and if done right not detectable. I haven’t had a single issue with ublock on youtube.

I used to pay for premium but they keep upping their prices. At this point ublock on computers + revanced on phone is best way to go. Premium features without paying a cent.

Almost like when you take religion out of the picture it’s one country committing genocide against another which is never okay for any reason. Israel can scream “but muh anti-semitism” all they want but it’s a scapegoat. Ignore Jewish/Muslim backgrounds and look at what’s really going on. It’s nothing but a disgusting land grab and genocide that’s been going on since WW2.

The world would 100% be a better place without Israel, and that’s nothing to do with their religion. The country itself is evil and corrupt. They are bigoted and hypocritical. Israel deserves no sympathy or support. Out of all the bullshit I’ve seen happen in the middle east the past few decades, Israel is definitely the most abhorrent and repulsive source of conflict.

I’ve been enjoying Chris Edwards Restoration recently. He works on a lot of old Amigas.

Vivaldi is a better brave. You get built in ad blocking and tracking prevention along with not having built in crypto

It’s almost like if they want people to not hate their country they should stop being a corrupt authoritarian hellhole

I want this to happen. It would be hilarious

the only addons you need for blocking ads on youtube are ublock origin and sponsorblock. multiple adblockers used together can and will cause conflicts and impair the ability to properly block things.

They’re right here on the threadiverse

Yeah, nowhere near the size of reddit, but who wants that? Easier to have discussions without bazillions of people posting crap like “works for me” or being dicks.

I don’t really trust other alternatives. Being unfederated, they rely on a closed source solution maintained by a single person or very small group of people. There’s nothing in place if the plugs ever get pulled, everything is lost and like reddit, whose to say these owners won’t turn their website slowly into the cesspit reddit is?

Yeah, an instance owner of lemmy/kbin could theoretically pull the plug on their instance or enshitify it, but you can just switch to a different instance and keep accessing the content you were.

Nothing is going to change if all the companies violating rights and stuff keep getting just a slap on the wrist. Yeah, 368 million is a lot, but it’s pocket change when considering tiktok brings in over 9 billion revenue a year.
