I have very positive experience with that thing actually. It fixed many a wifi issue for me (interestingly, while also saying it couldn’t find the issue. It just fixed it. Probably ran something as part of its diagnostics that happened to also fix the problem)

I agree in principle, and overall violent revolution is likely to be a horrible thing for many, but I think the issue for people is that they’ve tried the peaceful way and get suppressed by every system that exists. Threatening the rich isn’t about getting rid of them per se (at least it shouldn’t be, because new people will just fill the void) but about applying pressure for those with the most power to enact change to do so, hopefully leading to a less exploitative system.

It’s not that hard to keep people happy enough for them to not try to literally murder you, but if you fail at even that, you might have the drive to change it.

Oh no I agree, feel free to break that rule, just don’t make it the flight staff’s problem.

Yea, they just have to enforce it, not make sensible rules. Just let them do their jobs in peace and go petition the relevant aviation authorities if it bothers you that much.

It’s just the opposite social expectation here. And honestly it bothers me not because some people do it but because it feels like american puritanism taking over online spaces because it’s even in screenshots. Like holy shit you’re quoting someone just leave the swearing in.

Yes but also there are some diseases where I’d take death by shredder over slowly wasting away

I feel like this still slightly misses the problem. I couldn’t give less of a shit whether they do or don’t make money from my data, I care that they are tracking so many things for that purpose that I can be identified and many lifestyle habits are visible, which is a problem when the data ends up with someone who wants to use it to spy on me. Which probably has never targeted me specifically, but my data is almost certainly in a tool capable of this. Because this happens frequently.

Of course this happens because they want to make money from it and sell it, but even if they only want it to idk customize my feed to make me like their website more and it never leaves their server, I’d still have to worry about data breaches. Or just someone else taking over and deciding that selling it is great, actually.

And even though I have decided that I personally don’t really care enough to deal with the downsides for quality of life, that doesn’t mean I don’t want this to stop via legal means.
