"if you don't have anything to hide, what's the problem?"

this is the problem:

abuse by officials

exhibit A of the stakes, of which there will be many more until all these "but i have nothing to hide" morons realize

Well I figured out how far I could go last night, while setting up my newest Graphene OS phone.

I created new google account. From my arch laptop. It required not just a phone number (VoIP) but a cellular phone number. If you try this from you computer, you are still coerced into giving up your sim number.

Once you're on your phone signing in, Google will once again get your permission to dive into your phone to verify your sim number. This locks your account, to the device and to your number. I got past that curve with a prepaid cellular account with an alias.

I was unsuccessful on spoofing my location. Which triggered the US age verification. Which include, GEO location from your phone, your government issued ID, and two on the spot photo scans of you head and face. Like a mug shot. So I'd stopped before any of that intrusion. This will fully tie your identity to your device, the account, anyone or anything you do from that account and will follow you around digitally and physically.

So my layered approach is cut a bit short but I think it will do for now. Web apps when I can.

Trump administration attacks UK plans to boost traditional media on social platforms | Trump administration | The Guardian
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/sep/07/trump-administration-attacks-uk-social-media-plans

Of course they'll object, they only want fascist trumpistani views and opinions served up on #socialmedia

#Canada and the UK and EU countries should ban and block trumpistani antisocial media and disentangle from all american platforms and systems.

Trumpistani antisocial media platforms have been weaponized against democratic ideals. They're used to harvest our personal information and undermine our freedoms and rights and autonomy. They're being used to normalize hate, intolerance and ignorance.

Connected-car data raises new #privacy concerns

Fix recounted that her concerns about connected vehicles grew after a personal software update on her #Ford #BroncoRaptor seemed to restore data-sharing permissions she had disabled. The vehicle briefly indicated that permissions were enabled, prompting her to review and revert the settings. She then emphasized the issue’s broader scope beyond Ford, noting that it is tied to automakers’ software and connected-vehicle systems rather than dealer-controlled.

The issue also poses a potential customer-communication challenge regarding connected services, Bluetooth, and vehicle software. Fix said that while consumers may believe they have opted out of data collection, information can still be transmitted when they connect smartphones or use other vehicle-connected features. She argued that consumers need clearer disclosures and a reliable way to opt out.

This is the big LG television surveillance documentary story GN have been working on for a couple of months, and that they previewed a few days ago.

The complete pervasiveness of spying upon not just you and what you watch but _every person and every device around every set_ is genuinely staggering. And it gets worse if you use their apps, particularly the LG TV "network":

Having an old set DOES NOT HELP YOU; they've been adding these spying functions in firmware updates.

So DO NOT BUY ANYTHING LG. Certainly not anything "smart."

smart kitchen knife with Wi-Fi & BLE was at least a bit funny.

Dyson's announced smart toothbrush is just pure rage. this company:
- trained AI on HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of dental images (which already raises serious privacy questions);
- then put said AI into a toothbrush;
- then added camera inside toothbrush (along with Wi-Fi, BLE & RFID);
- and charged $500 dollars for this
