You See, Not everyone lives in a dystopian surveillance dictatorship. At least for now. As far as im concerned, the “others are already doing it so what’s the harm” argument is not valid. Meta is a private company. They already use their shit app to track the offline connections anyone with Facebook/Instagram installed has and record everything from SSIDa to BT beacons and connect the data with multiple sources. Having a surveillance camera mounted on someone’s head that can send a live feed non-stop to a private company is not the same as someone blogging or taking a picture with a phone of a camera. You can see those actions and take appropriate actions. The way disabling the recording light is advertised as a service gives us a peek on the most practical use case for the actual consumer: being a creepy little fuck. Glassholes were the beginning, but at least you could spot them easily.

Good! These have no business being on the market. I don’t get people wanting to be walking surveillance cameras and war drivers for private companies. And pay for it…

Cost of doing business. Such fines should be percentages after a flat part, otherwise it has virtually no corrective effect. If by the comp breach they gained 1.5 billion, it was totally worth it.

Fuck no. Keep American fascist corporations away from Europe.
