The local foreign language station- Niche podcasts- Consumer product reviews-
Wait a week, then pretend it's not listening...... while presented with ads for niche tech product related podcasts in Spanish.
Easy to verify.
Still not tracking? You're either dumb, or paid. At this point denial just makes you an asshole.............and for the record, they are ALL doing this. It's just the way the web works now. Conform, or adapt.
Our engineers are tired of hearing your foul mouths while they data-mine/eavesdrop on your conversations for incriminating evidence and trade secrets. Most of our employees are contractors with no health insurance, so I'm sure you can imagine how hard it is to keep all of our already overworked and underpaid people drinking the cool-aide in the break-room. That, and what-with our government looking for scapegoats and patsies for every nut-job with a gun these days, we feel you will understand. After all, shit rolls down hill. Locking the accounts of all of the thought criminals, and the wrong-speakers (and the opposing party) is really in every ones best interest. The good people's computers will continue to operate just fine.
Now we can't exactly define offensive language in any certain terms, so we're just going to start locking accounts containing content we don't agree with, or the accounts of anybody our leaderships says is a bad person, or the accounts somebody somewhere else says may be involved in a crime, or the accounts of.... well you get the idea, and again, we're sure you understand, this is for your protection.
Now before you get all huffy puffy in your latte, let me just say, you can't sue us. We already ran this by our lawyers, and they said "If they still don't understand the difference between ownership, and licensing, then we are just going to have to show them the other side of the coin. Nobody actually thought our "free" new OS theirs anyway, it's all right there in the TOS!"
In closing, we wan't to thank you all for being such loyal products, and hope you continue to serve us for many years to come.
Huge social media company mines data for years. Trades data for money. Are we going after google next? What about the cell phone companies? Grocery store loyalty cards?
Is Alexa, Siri, the Xbox, Oculus Rift or iPhone truly what could be considered "amazing technology," or should we have bigger and badder tech and innovation in the year 2018?
None of that shit is innovative. The word that fits is flashy
Innovation is: Reusable rockets, manned space stations, and unmanned war-fighting machines, it's full take surveillance, and social networking. It's genetic therapy, and integrated cybernetic prosthetics. It's 3D printed houses, and drinking water from thin air. It's self driving cars being prevalent enough to kill people, and a rich guy shooting one into space because he can. It's high profile hacks, and the buying and selling of personal information on a massive scale.
The real innovation IS happening- the masses are just so brainwashed by marketing not to notice, or so conditioned to fulfill base desires that they just don't care. The real innovation is just not sexy enough to distract from the 24/7 crisis feed, or the force-fed media spun garbage, and AAA video-game distractions. It's easy to miss innovation when it's so far out of reach for 99% of us.
Today, the rich step over dead homeless persons in the shadow of Amazons giant circle-jerk bubble erected in the heart of the city I grew up in. They call it innovation.
Adding rounded corners is somehow called innovation. Expert systems are not new, but media calls them innovative- and I demoed VR Googles at the grand-opening of Blockbuster Video, in my home town, before Windows turned 2000.......
Now got off my lawn you whiney little chit, there aint no goddamn Pokemen here.
Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) OBVIOUSLY means the aim is to make it harder to fight online sex trafficking- That's how we do things around here-
"We're deeply concerned about the risks of allowing any company or entity that is beholden to ANY government, as NONE OF THEM share our values, to gain positions of power inside our telecommunications networks," FBI Director Chris Wray should have testified. "That provides the capacity to exert pressure or control over our telecommunications infrastructure," Wray should have said. "It provides the capacity to maliciously modify or steal information. And it provides the capacity to conduct undetected espionage that is currently only OK for Uncle Sam and his secret courts"
It's your own personal responsibility to consider everything critically, and the the wisdom to separate the bullshit fro the value. This used to be taught in public school. I suppose educators prefer when the kids DON'T ask tough critical questions.
Story-time:
I recently attended "Science night" At my Sons Jr. High. (It was really disappointing, nothing of note) my biggest takaway was the disgust I felt when I overheard what I assume to be a history teacher discussing womens suffrage. I'm paraphrasing...
Teacher: the right to vote was won for American women in 1920. Smartass kid: When was prohibition enacted? Annoyed, blind-sided, and stuttering Teacher: I don't know, google it.
I assume that was a pretty sharp kid, I'm certain he knew the answer to that question, and he asked it on purpose to mess with the teacher. I think the teacher knew too. That's a single kid thinking critically out of the whole damngaggle. This is a good thing, even if he was trying to be an asshole. The lame ass teacher punted in front of all of us parents in the face of a politically non-correct teaching point. Blew me away. The point being, we wouldn't NEED warning labels on information sources if the consumers would consider them critically, and they would, if thinking critically was rewarded and encouraged. Right now, asking tough questions and questioning the narrative is so frowned upon there's almost no hope for those after genX.
When your main source of information is google, and googles word is gospel, there's no need to critically consider anything. Now, we need warning labels and disclaimers on news sources and entertainment, because by the nature of location, somebody might actually believe the shit they spew.
If everybody could just go ahead and think for themselves, that sure would be swell.
My buddies an I often sit in front of the fire and solve the worlds problems. Healthcare is one of my favorites. We like to look at what exactly causes the high costs and address them one at a time... (Completely ignoring things that work or don't in other countries, because those are saved for discussions like "what works and doesn't in other countries") Here are some of our ideas relating to healthcare.....
Tax rebates for high cost medical equipment. This addresses the high costs of medical equipment at least a little, and helps maintain profitability in creation/manufacture/research of said tech.
Transparent pricing, no hidden fees, like every damn thing else traded for American dollars. That $.03 asprin is only $25.00 because you can't just say "no thanks, I can't afford that today.", so the market will bear any price. If it's painful, good, get your shit together healthcare. It's damn sad that I can check the costs of airfare across nearly an entire industry run mostly by brain-dead customer service people (which is also bogged down with massive regulation hoops and legal liabilities) in two minutes, but an industry run by over-schooled and highly paid professionals who are often smarter than I am can't seem to write a complete legible sentence or count past $100.00 without the insurance mans help.
Free government funded tuition for in demand medical field studies, paid for by taxes paid on medical practitioners earnings. (much like the industrial taxes I pay now pretend to cover industrial overhead) This addresses the licensed doctor shortages... For profit schools will love this shit, and the socialized education camp gets a win. Free doctor/nurse/med-tech/ect... training!
Immunity to malpractice accusations and court nonsense on all non-trivial procedures. People are going to die under the knife. You can choose to just die, or ask for help. With transparent pricing and lower overall prices, it's on the consumer to do their research when seeking a "family doctor". This all but eliminates the insurance against insurance bullshit driving costs through the roof. Personal responsibility time folks. Buyer beware. I know a LOT of people that travel to other countries to have medical procedures done and take a vacation while there- for half the price of half the care in America. They do their research before they buy a ticket. Seems to work.
State level cooperatives negotiating pharma prices, which are allowed to shop outside of the country. This addresses 500% increase games on life-saving drugs due to the captive market, and ends the market for smuggling life saving drugs that is fueling organized crime. This is so fucked up by the way... and also leads to the next one....
University and government funded research CAN NOT BE PRIVATE. Breakthroughs and moonshots in the medical field should be shared if funded on the public dime, and works and studies encouraged. Patents never granted on medicines derived from government (citizen) funded research. I've never understood how breakthroughs achieved and sciences explained/attained at state universities is not public by default. Who in the hell came up with the current system and how can they sleep at night?
I'm just another nerd pissed off about 15k emergency room visits and $30000 stillborns. I have no idea how these things would pan out, but nobody else ever seems to put forward any ideas addressing what seems to me to be the sources of the high costs of care that require the money sucking insurance companies to begin with. You gotta do more than creative accounting to fix this, and lives are at stake.
I imagine Amazon will drive costs down by sheer volume, access to data, simplicity, reliability, and scope of options. (Based on your shopping habits, you might also like.... a colonoscopy! available from these practitioners...)
The only thing more fun to discuss than American healthcare is American law enforcement. Hooo-boy do the tempers flare on that one.
You place blame on consumer with "Illegal purchase"
Consumer did nothing wrong. They pre-ordered the media for viewing after release and got a pleasant surprise.
You aught to place blame on merchant with "Illegal offering" or "illegal sale" as Amazon messed up and made the media available early after collecting the $$.
Is that really illegal to begin with? Or is it just against some TOS somewhere? We are talking about an official distribution channel right?
It's no secret that everything Americans do on any electronic device is scooped up in full-take surveillance. Cyberspace has no expectation of privacy. When we take steps to create a small amount of privacy, our letter agency cry foul with the power words TERRORISTS, CHILDREN, and WAR on X.
We all need to remember that American security services are actively working against EVERYBODY when it comes to personal privacy. When things like this hit the headlines, its hard to not make the connection.
FBI says it needs to break all encryption for our safety. NSA needs to gobble up more data than can possibly be analyzed, and big tech needs to see everything "To better serve their customers"
We enlightened citizens push-back with facts and history, so they spin it and try another angle.
The sad truth is that our government has been caught doing so much un-good and fact changing that citizens simply no longer trust anything they say. And for good reason.
The 911 system does need an upgrade. I bet it is costing lives. But we've seen time and time again what happens when we trust our overseers with a little more power.
Besides, they are ALREADY tracking everything. At this point it's just noise making to normalize it and go above board... you know...for the children
Offer FREE battery replacement within 2 years of purchase date, and apologize for the shitty battery performance that led to this. Then they can claim this was a temporary workaround to keep users operational until they can get a new better battery installed.
There's no way to spin this that's not obvious marketing spin.
Apple slowed devices down before even 2 years of use. Obviously an effort to force upgrades. If you really buy the spin, then it means apple pushes short lived and inferior devices dressed in fancy plastic for $1000.00
At least it made big enough news for even the older folks in my office to hear about it. I bet they buy android next.
The entire fake news thing is sad and embarrassing. It's people admitting that they cannot think critically, and will believe just about anything. They're crying "Do something! Do something!" when all they have really ever had to do is think critically for a few moments and the problem is solved.
Corruption is rampant and legal in this county. Our representatives are so openly owned that nobody even blinks an eye, its no longer news. So normal that nobody even bothers to fact check anymore. Politicians are all dirty as hell, of course they did %THING. Corruption and bad behavior are so normal that people just assume it's true. Even our MSM.
Meanwhile, our media is so sanitized and washed out that other countries are able to manipulate our population with fucking memes, lies, and cartoons. This is a problem for our giant divisive media companies, not more corrupt politicians.
Really fucking sad.
Assume every politician is dirty as hell, and every single person you meet is out for your wallet and assets. Voting won't help, and you can't run for office without selling your soul to corporations.
The only play left is to remember everything in America is a fucking scam and act accordingly. Even the fucking news.
All these comments are cracking at how incredibly stupid this guy is. I read incredibly desperate.
It's all smiles and wit when we talk about wealth in the USA, eat the rich, French revolution... ect.
Here is a real example of a skilled worker being excluded from the work force on account of Felon status. Keep sitting back and watching with your 5 dollar coffee and cable TV folks. Might as well heat up the popcorn while your at it. Expect more of this sort of thing.
I wonder how many times a year this sort of thing happens in the non-tech sector. This dude is going back to prison, and his family just learned what side of the coin their really on.
People are getting desperate. People are getting more hungry, and people are getting violent. Those people doing the excluding? Their buying the land and driving up the COL everywhere while looking down their noses at everybody else and trying to figure out "the homeless problem"
We're on the express train to desperate violence folks. Look around at the world. Step outside your little bubble and actually look at whats going on. This guy aint stupid. He's desperate, and so are MANY more.
When the shoe finally drops, it's going to be something to behold.
There is an army of bots scouring for anything "____coin" or "blockchain" and buying according the a predefined ruleset. They are probly set to dump it all once it begins a downward trend over a couple days.
The robot army is already in control.
At this point, I'm certain these guys are making out like bandits, but once that first dump trigger is hit, its gonna be a bloodbath.

I also enjoy the auto-cloud sync when taking pictured on my mobile. I guess I'm only allowed to photo "approved" things now eh?
This move kills every single cloud use case I can come up with.
Good thing thumbdrives have become such popular promo items. My cloud is on my keys.
Over the past few years it really seems like our government is hell bent on pushing internet facing companies out of the country.(USA)
Why?
WTF.
They might not even decrypt anyway.
Just restore from your excellent backups. Everybody loses a day of productivity, and the courts should have paper records anyway.

Came to say this. Does the outrage machine need a fill-up or something?
Since the advent of the modern military, can you think of a single instance where armed civilians freed themselves from tyranny using their firearms?
Google for "successful insurgency"
The list is very long. Educate yourself.
FBI, CIA, NSA: Encryption bad! Spying good! Privacy bad!
They almost got it right. I'll fix it.
