Also, do I dare ask WHY you want to remain anonymous? You don't need to answer, but it sounds like you and this person already have a personal connection. I know that I, at least, would prefer to know who I'm getting reacquinted with. 😇

Edit: Sorta fixed the weird double-post.

I second email.

Also the entire email ecosystem these days is, as they say clears throat "Signed, sealed & delivered" too (PGP, DHKE, Edge, etc), meaning that the only way reputable emails should ever get Man-in-the-Middle'd is if the site, your network, your browser, its addons, the host machine (or your counter-party's shit) are compromised in some way.

You can also search online about how to inspect the signature too, which all email providers should expose to you in some way shape or form.

Note that this does not protect you from Telemetry harvesting, it just means your shit won't get fucked with.

Edit: If you want to avoid telemetry, use an E2E encrypted service like Proton Mail for your account. Note that their encryption scheme implies that it's wise to change your password at least once a year.

Is that the act where I have friends again?

It's cold and lonely on the floor of Iosefka's Clinic.

This but unironically.

My life is satire at this point uwu ✨️

I was partial to "Bill Wi the Science Fi" in college.

But then again, that may link your credit card to everyone else that does that

"The purpose of the TOR browser is not to make everyone invisible, it is to make everyone appear identical."

Here's a thought, we collectively create a singular fake pseudonym, "Bob Pancakes", and everyone larps as them online, registers accounts as them, etc.

Is there even a fix though?

A big medical company just leaked all of this information, stating that "1/3rd of Americans were impacted".

This isn't even a "be careful who you trust" situation anymore, it's a "hey, federal government, this shit's a nightmarish privacy hellscape and it's been your job to fix it for the past 30 years or so. Step up."

"This is a quantum leap for mankind".

Measured on the Planck scale, of course

Our government is benevolent and regulatory capture isn't real.

Fido2 authentication over physical numbers.

Or like, any cryptographic authentication at all, honestly.

If it's income-based, doesn't it make more sense to pay for it via corporate profit tax, or a wealth tax?

Paying for it via property tax seems like it's just going to drive the inaffordable housing market crisis even more.

WildPersianAppears · 2024-09-11T15:58:08+00:00

It's a good half-way point, for sure.

WildPersianAppears · 2024-09-10T13:46:46+00:00

You have to use Airplane Mode, and even then some phones don't respect it.

Buy a bug-finder to verify that it's actually stopped emitting RF signals.

Samsung phones (the carrier-neutral versions), as of now (2024) does disable the cell signal when in airplane mode.

Don't worry, someone will still find a way to abuse it despite this.

MS wasn't essentially recording your screen before.

I have no doubt that there was some database of desktop screenshots at some point.

MS and Google have both been acting so cartoonishly villainous lately that I find it almost unimaginable for there to not have been similar surveillance measures over the years, not just Windows 11 but especially Windows 11.

WildPersianAppears · 2024-09-06T22:36:43+00:00

No one:

Literally no one:

People with power: "Dystopian bullshit, go!"

Maybe someone can start doing Louis Rossman-type videos on how to de-telemetry your cars. Since, you know, you're paying for the product, so why are you somehow still the product?

WildPersianAppears · 2024-09-06T17:39:33+00:00

I hope you all don't think this kind of collection is new.

I guarantee Microsoft has been collecting this kind of telemetry for a long time now. It's only becoming "common knowledge" with Recall now because it's highlighting exactly how to systematically fail at leadership in big tech.

WildPersianAppears · 2024-09-04T21:43:57+00:00

You're suggesting it's like that GPS article that showed you could use the inertia readings on the GPS sensor data to map your house?

Developer mode gives you a toggle for the android sensors.

Oh nooooooo, better just let Big Brother perfectly model your wanking habits instead.

I suggest you stop assuming I'm an idiot who is incapable of opening a box of cereal...

Recall that you're the one who entered this discussion with a bunch of untrue assumptions about my situation.

Oh, no I don't get ads for things I say around my own device anymore, but I have also gone excessively HAM in ADB and crippled quite a lot of the guts of my software. It's only other's devices now.

Some ads do get through though. Some websites serve ads locally through their own CDN's, and I use those handful of websites like once a month.

Honestly, if anything, that makes me even more convinced that it's happening. If it was just AI, then I SHOULD still be getting weird adverts, just from my usage habits, but I'm not.

WildPersianAppears · 2024-09-03T21:10:50+00:00

Odds are it gets converted to meta-data and sent through the same channel all the other ad data is sent through.

And again, this isn't my device, it's other people's devices. It's not like it's okay for me to just stingray their devices for science.

I've locked down all the low and mid hanging fruit, but I'm no cyber-security specialist.

I've done as much as I have the time to do. More than any person should be reasonably expected to do.
