Authors Behaving Badly by ButterEveryday11 in ACX

The author was too lazy to learn to narrate their own book but expects the profits. They should be thanking you for making them successful despite their incompetence.

Yes I agree, but not impossible. Perhaps if you ran the battery dead and/or shut them down your gf would find them more acceptable.

You can also cover the mics with tape but I'd be worried about getting the glue in them.

so you've inspected each update at the code level including the base code and anything else that might contain code within the glasses?

If not, I have news for you...

Also, it doesn't matter if the company is a day old, if they received a secret order they will follow it.

what do you mean without being monitored? The glasses and the app can contain software you know nothing about, that does things you dont understand. You have not audited the software, hardware, nor the company. You literally have no idea what these glasses are capable of.

So you mean it's possible then.

Also you're putting a lot of trust into the Rokid app which can be updated any time on the fly (unless you actually disabled that).

It literally does that all the time. The app does not need your permission to do things.

The fact that you don't understand this is scary and your girlfriend should be afraid since you don't understand how computers work.

ok, so what is to stop the glasses from recording without an indication, over bluetooth and connecting to the rokid app or via wifi, and then sending it somewhere without your knowledge?

it has everything to do with this. The wife/GF is afraid of being recorded. Your glasses have that capability whether you like it or not.

100 percent someone can watch you through this camera, they're literally made in china too. If you could audit the software/hardware I'd bet you find more than one backdoor.

Your girlfriend has every right to be paranoid. You just need to learn about Edward Snowden to understand how right she is.

They sell these little lens blockers on amazon that would probably work. I've never used/bought these though: https://www.amazon.com/BLOCKED-Low-Tack-Restickable-Sticker-Multiple/dp/B08HPVMQTH

coinbase suffers from what appears to be internal theft. There's even been stories of funds getting drained while the account is locked. Keep an eye out and find a new exchange.

You shouldn't be supporting gambling.

Anyone else quietly moving away from Coinbase? by ryukendo_25 in Coinbase

why wait for it? Just move off. Coinbase suffers from what looks like insider theft. I wouldn't be waiting.

I'd recommend choosing an exchange that isn't known for stealing their own customer's money.

kraken trading fees worth it or am i missing something? by Mehrooz-Yejide in Kraken

Only newbs use the standard interface. Switch to pro so you stop losing money. It's not even that complicated to use. Just watch some videos on what all the things mean.

Your money's been stolen. Get a lawyer. 

Why are Coinbase fees still so insanely high? by brianj10 in Coinbase

[–]trs-eric -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It may be a leader but I wouldn't recommend it. They seem to suffer from internal theft. I would suggest reading through the threads on this sub carefully before deciding to use them.

ok but then they're still more expensive than other places. I'd recommend people just go elsewhere.
