Tldr: Bluetooth isn’t entirely the problem. The problem is manufacturers who don’t add privacy features like rotating identifiers into their Bluetooth enabled devices. Many smartphones are doing this these days.

E.g. modern non-cheap devices (iphone, pixel, general higher level android, airpods, apple watches, other modern headphones etc.) have those, and are not really track able like this.

Wir sehen momentan gerade die Folgen von Kapitalismus mit zu wenig Regulierungen (Firmen haben Monopolstellung ausgebaut, dominieren teils komplett Sektoren, KMU haben kaum Möglichkeiten Fuss zu fassen, sind abhängig von Investment der grossen Firmen, Staate sind alternativlos abhängig von gigantischen Firmen, etc).
Natürlich wird das alles besser wenn wir weniger regulieren, sehen wir ja, in USA läufts prächtig

I have good experience with matrix-synapse 😄 together with the bridges for proprietary services, your matrix client could be the ultimate chat app

And some even support sync of group chats through puppeting (may not be TOS compliant on some services)

You sure?

They are targeting the next generation, the next generation will not know how to search the internet without an AI chatbot

We all know that most parents will just let the “Digital Natives” do their thing or/and that kids in a certain age definitely know better than their parents who fear this “technological leap” and don’t get it anyway

😁✌🏻

We save flok video in cloud but cops cams are dumb enough that they can be turned off and on and that they save only locally, WTF

But lemmy indeed triggers addictive behaviours on me… But same does any news app….
Great way to flee from regional reality (Doing work, being social, talk to people, ho for a walk with the dog, do housekeeping, etc.)
Everything gets delayed when I am on here, but still, Iam writing this 🙃

The usenet is text based as well 🌚

(You can still get 4k movie files iut of it)

We have such sort of cameras in Europe as well. Some even use a Service provider from china; literally Surveillance as a Service.

Of course, hi-speed trains are way better than personal cars and airplanes 😄

I just wanted to point out that the “fastest trains in the world” trophy is not something achieved saintly, but because it had to be the “best”, a la make big numbers bigger.
The growth of value for the people is minimal, but the (energy) costs are immense.
With trains, punctuation is way more important than max speed 😇

For the housing thing

They have entire cities with empty houses if I remember correctly, and the ultra high speed rail is immensely inefficient as air resistance is raising in square proportionally to speed

I think building houses that will never be used as similar bad as to less housing…

Many apps either only sell on website or just make it 30% more expensive when paid via app
That is long the case

Buy those VPN shares, lol

I think linux PC vendors (Tuxedo, system76) have to fund stuff like this at the beginning, at least until we have not only a single digit percentage of market share running linux…

I mean profit oriented companies only invest in stuff they think they can yield something from later

This made me letting this create 🤭

Windows -> MS copilotOS

🧐 wonky enough?

VPN 🤔

There are enough people thinking their agent is sentient but fear to speak out because they don’t understand why not, even when people try to explain…
