🔥 First, the author tries to convince us that #DOGE "cuts" lead to #wildfires, because of course, cryptos are now responsible for climate change. 🐶🔥 Then, they sneak in an update to their Privacy Policy, because nothing screams "trustworthy" more than burying legalese under a pile of hunting jargon and emoji. 🦌🔍

https://pastebin.com/abiFucdq MZLA Privacy Statement

Sigh. I was hoping that #Thundermail #Mozilla #email would be good. NOOOOOOOPE.

I had my #localLLM review their Terms of Service #TOS and #PrivacyPolicy . Its general Big Tech nonsense.

My words, not the LLM.

Terms of Service fuckups

The "Arbitrary Dictator" Clause (Section 9c). WE'S DONT LIIKE THE CUT OF YOUR JIB. No due process. Fuck right outta here, no refunds.

The "We Don't Care If You Lose Everything" Clause (Sections 11 & 12). You pay for a service but they promise absolutely nothing. They could shut down tomorrow, and youre SOL.

The "Pay Our Lawyers" Clause (Section 13). If you fuck up, or not even fuck up and someone comes after them and they mention you, YOU have to pay their legal bills.

The "We Can Change the Rules Whenever We Want" Clause (Section 14). Usual Big Tech bullshittery.

(LACK OF) Privacy Policy

The "We Use Your Real Emails to Test Stuff" Clause (Section: Processing Purposes). These fuckers actually use YOUR personal emails on their testing systems.

The "Manual Review" of Private Emails (Section: Private Information: MZLA Access). If they THINK you might violate their ToS or their authoritarian feels, they read everything of yours.

The "We Know You Opened This" Trap (Section: Cookies/Tracking) They pixel-tag their emails that you cant bloody turn off.

The "Data Retention Black Hole" (Section: Security and Retention) Theres no time limit how long they'll feed your REAL EMAILS in their testing systems, or how long they retain anything.

The "Third-Party Data Sharing" Loophole (Section: Sharing) Oooooh, like, uhhh, DATA BROKERS? And who needs a court order? We'll just call it "fraud and abuse".

They want to pretend they're an upstart, 'To The Power of the People' or some bullshit. In reality this is yet another Big Tech 'Fuck you I got Mine' terms of service and privacy policy.

@mandarvaze if you just want to use the app (like drinking #Amul milk), you don't need to be a member.

But if you become a member, you share the ownership of the app and can vote to elect people who will govern the app - like deciding its #privacyPolicy or hiring developers to build features in the app.

You can also get elected to the leadership. The app will be run #democratically by its members.

This may look strange to you, but made possible by #FreeSoftware.
