Like, we all know they're listening , but can we provide proof?

My friend was complaining about all the new super surveillance that will be government required in cars after 2027, and I said to him dude you have a stock android, you use every AI slop feature, you use a smart TV on your unsecured network, and uses x every day. They have everything they could possibly need on him. Oh and he posts questionable things to fb daily under his real name.

    He also gave his famous opinion about Facebook users. Deep down, he agrees with privacy advocates. The diff is that he's a shitty enough person to take advantage of the less techy people out there even if his society will be damaged badly in the process. Most of us are not that shitty.

    they trust me

    dumb fucks

    I think we can move beyond Facebook here. Trusting big tech with your data never works out well.

    the biggest hypocrites are tech CEO's limiting their children's screen time and forbidding social media
