I run a consulting practice around flexibility. Been around the energy space for 15 years. Boy if I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard “grid scale [x] will soon be everywhere”

Mass surveillance system? Yes, of course. That’s the whole point. Tracking and profiling you to charge more for ads.

Lmao these smart TVs are basically the screens in the book 1984, in every house.

Hmm stunned disbelief, I tell ya. How on earth did anyone ever think this could happen, big corpo putting ads inside the most hyper targeted machine the world has ever seen. How could they ever decide to do this

If any of you dumb fucks don’t think we already live in a surveillance state, you are part of the problem

…and do they sell data, including video, to law enforcement and insurance?

Sincerely, A person who recently was in a fender bender and was not surprised at all when Progressive shared “incident footage” from a Ring camera across the street at a location completely unrelated to the fender bender

Lol they’ve already announced funding (or intent to fund?) for reviving coal mining

OpenAI said in a blog post that the product results it surfaces are “organic and unsponsored, ranked purely on relevance to the user,” and that it will charge merchants a “small fee” for completed purchases.

Jesus we fucking tried this, didn’t we? SDI. Reagan’s Star Wars.

DuckDuckGo browser my friend. The “Duck Player” feature plays YT videos in-browser without ads or other tracking

This means they have already acquired this and are currently using it, and have been for years

I eagerly await the day when a majority of people understand that all technology will eventually be used against them by the state.

Great seeing the word “woke” in an executive order of the President of the United fuckin States

Well well well who ever could have seen this coming

If “people” = the bro-ligarchs, then sure

Bots don’t need healthcare

Lmao when the “anonymous” online forum requires de-anonymizing, I want to hope everyone leaves

Can’t wait to keep not paying for Peacock

Lmao let’s see how long it takes them to shut this down
