Alreeady on Matrix, too, of course. And my main social is Mastodon.

I've purged Meta, Microsoft, Google, Sony, all of them. Heck, I'll even be lookin in to alternative GPUs for the next build, and how well I can run things on RISC-V rather than x64 or ARM.

Already gone by then.

But that was the final straw for Google when I deleted an account that was a legal adult because they demanded my driver's license for a music video.

If buying isn't owning, piracy isn;t theft.

Remember, it's Axon as well, and many more companies. and a major contrbuter who has linked in with all of these creepy services is Amazon and has the largest surveillence network in residential areas not just on travel corridors comprised of Ring doorbell cameras tied in to all of these systems.

Flock seems like the sacrificial lamb, to me. They are in your face, ther cameras are obvious, and their CEO runs his mouth so much everyone hates him.

It's like how Elon can't keep his mouth shut, but Ellison far more dangerous and nearly as rich.

Sucks to lose the investment, but better than being punched in the face for looking like a pervert.

Wonder if Rayban owners can sue them for their money back now that they're unwearable by anyone with sense.

I mean, Lazy RedHat narcissitic Tech Bro Linux uses a a device ID as well, but you can purge it and get a new one, or rip the "convenience" parts out and ust configure things like we used to.

It's not necessary, it just makes things smoother, and easier to set up so it works with no idea what you're doing.

I saw a story about them preempptively sending information to the FBI, not responging to a warrant, but snitching on someone for their computer activity.

If you upload to OneDrive, and they turn it on by default with the forced login now for online-only 11, you agree that it is not your data anymore.

Not saying it's right, but if you care (and even if you don't, but I expect people are too addicted to "convenience" to avoid it even if they do care) keep your shit out of the systems of Microslop and Be More Evil, Inc.

I dumped Discord when I heard they were trying to do an IPO, as soon as that happens a company is without fail going to screw all of their customers because if there are shareholders the customer becomes the product.

You could always take notes from ol' Petey Hogshit and drunk text them to journalists.

There are legitimate uses for head mounted cameras that track your focus.

There are none for these devices that try to obfuscate their presence.
