Yeah , I love this guy. I learned how creepy precise location is because of him and I basically turn it off for every app on my phone.
After reading Mozilla’s reports on cars a few years back I already felt dread about the day I get a new car, and this will certainly kill me even more.
Here’s hoping Slate cars are reported as reliable/ have good fuel economy in the next few years. Cause I really love how minimalist they are + electric.

Probably have a camera beaming right back to amazon HQ that shuts the engine off if you disable it.

Me too. I sleep with my phone on airplane mode typically and I have woken up and checked the time and seen the camera indicator on for no reason. It’s quite disconcerting.
I find this happening on iOS and it makes me put my phone down in a visually obstructive spot more since I’m not into my camera being active when I didn’t ask it to be. Unfortunately, the more you learn and live, the more you realize the paranoid delusions people used to call “crazy schizo shit” are actually probably true… to varying degrees of course.
iOS sends, what, 11MB of telemetry a day on average? Surely that can include audio and video compressed with those overpowered CPUs.

That’s one of my biggest peeves. Pre-surveilance economy, the crazies really were paranoid. There were not cameras in their walls! Then, the whole ass world went, “Hey! What if we make their paranoia into actual reality?” Now, here we are. Maybe not cameras in the walls, but in every other damn thing. Your vacuum? Check. Your car? Check. Kids toys? Check. Sunglasses? Check.
That’s made it harder to tell the diff between ppl who are actually paranoid (“vaccines are implanting Bill Gates tracking chips in your veins bro!”) and those who aren’t, but hate commercial surveilence. Plus, those who hate it, sound almost like an oldschool paranoid, to anyone who doesn’t pay attention to know how pervasive it is now.
Yeah and also with evidence of experiments done on people (Tuskeegee experiments) and then downright negligence and cover ups done for greed (opioid crisis), add that to poor treatment for Dr’s convenience or due to their willful ignorance (lots of women’s medicine, birth practices, no numbing for painful procedures) then even the vaccine crazies have valid skepticism.
I believe in vaccines completely, but it’s hard to argue with an anti vaxxer that the pharmaceutical corporations have their best interests at heart. They don’t.
Fully agree with the fucked timeline and honestly agreeing with ignorance is bliss. I just wanna take the blue pill and go back to sleep. I want to be happy and trust my government like a dummy.

No, they really don’t. To be extremely clear, it is nearly unanimous from every expert that there is no valid reason not to get vaccinated, and lots of very good reasons to do it. That is the consensus of the entire field. Immunologists, virologists, public health officials, in every country. It is as contentious in the medical community as saying the earth is round, not flat among geologists. Which is to say you can probably find a flat earther geologist or two. But they are crackpots.
All this "I believe in it buuuuut does is make people falsely hesitant about something that is the scientific consensus.

Really good video. Instant subscribe.
In my case: It’s youtube / google, instant ignore.
well @comrade_twisty would something like freetube be of interest to you edit: this youtuber is a very good one

nor mine, but that’s because it’s old AF. lol
You can pry my 9th gen civic from my cold, dead paws.
This is the way.
Youtube is a surveillance device.
Here: inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=J7oTWytFCmE
I only have libretube on my phone so YouTube links just open in libretube instead which I believe should address the surveillance aspect
they still see your ip and the vid you played tho
frontend instances are the way to stop this.
…which are getting blocked insanely fast nowadays…
they work if you don’t use them too much can tolerate a bit of downtime here and there.
i recommend libredirect and finding multiple good ones, so it deals with that for you.
I’m interested. What is a frontend instance? Like, the server acts as a reverse proxy or something?
yes, kind of. they are a proxy that takes the stream from google and streams it back to you from a lightweight frontend.
it’s like invidious instances for youtube (nadeko, catsarch, etc)
redlib instances for reddit, nitter for twitter (xcancel), imginn for instagram and more.
you will often see a bot posting links to them in my instance’s comms when people post links to youtube and such.
libredirect is a browser extension that manages them.
Doesn’t libretube use a piped instance as a proxy by default so our IP isn’t revealed to YT? I guess you could also run a VPN in the background
