Early on he would, but you are right I always suspected the account was more of a marketing firm of several people and the guy was just the public face of the account.

I don’t remember him being like that early on so if he is/was it probably influenced from user interactions and let’s be honest, people could be pretty toxic. I agree though about Flying Squid, they seem pretty cool.

FlyingSquid is the only one I recognize and I feel like he’s lemmys GallowBoob from reddit.

They always rebrand features for marketing, you aren’t in a video chat you’re FaceTiming™. You aren’t talking with AI you’re talking with Apple Intelligence™.

John McAfee?

That’s the secret to powering Linux mint.

Probably wipe the firmware of the machines so they can’t be used.

(Fun fact: FIRMware is the in-between of HARDware and SOFTware.)

Those should be closed systems and don’t need to network with other systems and should be safe enough, its when we start networking that it becomes incredibly risky which is what neuralink is intended to do. I don’t think the average person understands how many automated attacks are flooding interconnected computers as we speak and you’re dropping someone’s brain into that and we don’t understand the scope of what can be done intentionally or unintentionally, it’s not outside the realm of possibility an automated attack trying to rapidly port scan and compromise a neuralink could overwhelm and damage the device and cause brain damage or death.

How much ram does the container use on average?

Would they still want it if it became hackable and someone could do nefarious things to them which they no doubt will try?

That should show they don’t really care, they take a few big issues and focus that and leave the rest for next time they want a win.

Elections are coming up.

Businesses shouldn’t be allowed to purchase residential houses, they can do apartments but no family homes, even if it’s split.

Political donations should be illegal except from a private civilian who must follow all rules and limitations. If a corporation thinks a specific politician is in their best interest the corporation’s then the only option should be employees should be the ones to donate their personal money up to their limit and not funded from the company itself, a business or pact should have no sway in an election and should only be influenced by individual voters. That way the individual can decide if that politician is best suited for the country or just their business.

And you know the cars aren’t going to stop generating the data either for when they decide they want it.

As someone who loves the bells and whistles and who recently bought a new vehicle last year a lot of the safety features are really nice to have but of all the tech features I thought I wanted I don’t really use. If I can conveniently stream audio from my phone or have a larger screen than my phone for navigation that’s placed somewhere I can glance at I would be happy. At least that’s what I’d tell my past self.

That said I wouldn’t be too paranoid about the data the car is collecting because your cell phone and everyones phone around you is collecting the same information (edit: not that you shouldn’t be concerned about that either). It’s just that these manufacturers are realizing theres money to be made here, it’s probably why GM wants to stop including Apple Car play or Android Auto so there’s less fingers in the cookie jar.

Could you imagine living somewhere that you could commute locally and just work remotely and not need such a finacial burden in your life? What a fantasy 😔

A lot of it has to do with things like Android Auto or Apple car play where the software needs access to your text message to read it to you and may need to send it to a more powerful cloud base system to translate your voice to text or the response from text into voice. These are legitimate reasons for using that data despite the taboo nature of how we view privacy and there are workarounds and technological breakthroughs that make it so those things can be done locally without sending it for processing but there’s pros and cons for technical reasons not to. That said does a system need to read every text message on your phone just to read out a text you’ve only just received absolutely not and this is where things get into the grey area.

The problem is that if you want that car you have to agree to these data policies that are very blatantly just trying to to take all of the data they can to monetize either directly from selling or trading or indirectly like improving services. What we need are strong laws in place to protect privacy but that’s an uphill battle when politicians are beholden to capitalism.

So to go back and actually answer your original question, yes, encryption is our only means or privacy assuming in this case signal encrypts data at rest.

To me it reads like the recruiter thought the person was a troll and banned them.

If Californians can destroy a car blocking traffic New Jersey wants this privilege too.

Most internet usage is mobile and people use whatever’s preinstalled on their phone because it just works is my guess.

Why you gotta call out the psyops groups out there, you know how hard they’re already working. There’s no time for coming up with new campaigns when the old ones work so well.
