Theyve been spying for 15 years. They can control you too. Why do you think they wanted electric steering and to get rid of throttle cables and "safe" automatic braking? Control. They can lock your doors and drive you anywhere, they can slam on your brakes as a semi truck is behind you if they deem you a threat to dear Leader.

The power they have now to get rid of undesireables , and sweep it all under the rug is a fascists dream.

    Wait until you find out that other car's smart features could be used to spy on you. All those Tesla and Waymo cameras just ripe for the picking.

    A big surveillance hive swarm of vehicles.

    but that's mostly internal.
    Unless Typotyper is saying 🚗 🖥️ are broadcasting actually carlogs outloud.
    I know plenty of folks that don't install their own 🚗 🖥️ w/analog info.

    So if what tiktok is doing is legal then why did they settle and change their policy instead of going to trial?

    My question about physical content distributed outside a school is just a question about whether showing this content to children is morally acceptable.

    I actually didn't realize this case was mostly about kids 13 and older. So some of my arguments may seem a little extreme. But if tiktok tells parents that they offer a restricted version of the app, for little kids, that doesn't include violent and sexual content, and then they come back and say that it's not working as intended and little kids are still seeing this content then that's a problem.

    For video games it would be like if a video game had a rating saying it was good for children of all ages and then actually it had sexual scenes and violence.

    If you had to make a fictional scenario to try to get your point, then it's not an actual argument. Violent contents are very much common-place. Video games has a lot of violent contents, and to this date, there has been zero evidence that video games causes real issues at mass scale. As for sexual content, that's unavoidable given so much emphasis on sex by society, that you'd literally have to address marketing to solve it and to change culture at a mass scale as well. It's on the parents at the end of the day. Besides, again, you don't have evidence chat control is effective.

    That's on the parents' job. All you're enabling is shutting down of First Amendment, increased unnecessary surveillance, etc. And if there is pornography, then it should be reported and removed anyway.
