🍪 Oh joy, another tech giant devours a cookie 🍪! Meta's latest acquisition requires you to turn on #JavaScript and #cookies just to read about it—because what better way to kick off the invasion of privacy than by making sure your browser is prepped for stalking? 😂

Deleted my discord... not that I really ever used it.
But fuck all of these bullshit attempts to collect your biometric data just to access a fucking chat app.
The enshitification of everything continues.
We seriously need to burn down the internet and rebuild it.... with blackjack and hookers.

😂 Wow, #Flock decided to give the world a free #surveillance show 🎥! Congrats on reinventing public access TV with a side of privacy invasion. Maybe next time, skip the 'exposed' phase and go straight to the 'oops' apology tour. 🙈

If you have any Meta app on your phone, such as Facebook, it is time for a rethink.
Meta is secretly using its AI to scan phone camera rolls of users.
Consider this:
Pre-WWII Nazis would have done similar if the technologies had existed back then, first to profile people under pretences, then to target people for camps etc. It would start with minorities and progress fast to anyone who 'seemed different', 'walked different', owned something they wanted, or disagreed in any way.Furthermore, why the hell do operating systems leave backdoors open for any toxic, divisive app?
It is not the time in world politics to be coasting on habit and hopes about any app known to have dined with far right.

🎬🔍 Oh, look! Another privacy invasion disguised as a feature! 🙄 Your browser's DRM now acts like your clingy ex, watching your every move. 🕵️♂️🔒 Nothing says "innovation" quite like a PDF so unreadable it makes hieroglyphics look like a children's book. 📚🤦♂️

Ah, nothing screams "freedom of the press" like a good old spyware scandal 🎉. The US-backed Israeli firm puts its "innovative" tools to work, showing European journalists that privacy is soooo last century. Meanwhile, Air India is just trying to make it to London without becoming the next headline 💺😂.

CW: joke about Microsoft's latest "AI" nonsense
It's only a Copilot+ PC if it's from the Redmond region of Washington (state), otherwise it's just sparkling machine learning-powered privacy invasion.

Why do Conde Nast’s partners need to identify me by my device characteristics? There’s no obvious reason for this to be “necessary” for my use of the site, so this appears to be deliberate non-compliance with the Data Protection Act.

They value my privacy but have 1,540 “partners” who need to process my personal data? No.

Today I learnt Apple needs to monitor my calls and emails to “prevent fraud” when using Apple Music! Fuck off Apple! VLC is deliberately scuttled! Any other music player app that plays music stored locally on iPhone?
I saw this when I started Apple music for the first time on the watch. It is nearly impossible to find that phrasing anywhere else! #Apple #Privacy #PrivacyInvasion -
