We should start a co-op that buys advertising data on people that say stuff like this and then bombards them with spam that says “You have nothing to hide, [name]! You want everyone to know you love [advertising data entry tied to them]”
I dunno…
looks at pile of discarded lint rollers covered in saliva
Lightly used lint roller and wet tongue? Fuzzy and tacky but slippery. Unless you dry out your tongue first, then it’ll just stick in a weird and unsatisfying way.
Because the emus were playing 5D chess. Their diplomatic stonewalling is what ultimately won them the war.
If someone tells them to, they might try until a few business interests remind them that these are also fundamental components of business networks. Once money tells them to stop it, they will.
VPN companies should just hire a lobbyist for a week and this will all go away.
Exactly this. There’s maybe 8 politicians in the whole world that understand what a VPN is. They’re told by a lobbyist and donor that it’s a thing that is bad, now they’re out to figure out how to make it go away.
Consent?
As if any of these people want to talk to ME for 3 hours?

100% this. I had a neighbor who was caring for their elderly, bed-ridden mother. She was almost entirely blind, diabetes took her foot, and had the TV on the televangelist 24/7 channel. Yet she would sneak and get the phone and send televangelists all her money. They tried to hide the phone, she would manage to mail them checks. She set up recurring debits from her bank. Crackheads are less determined. They were in such a bad place their gas got shut off because all her money was going to these people. Family was crazy about it, and had no way to stop it with the bank.
I would bet it will turn the corner around 2042

Microsoft might agree with this.
There’s got to be some meth-head scrappers that need this information.
That’s literally card punchers.
Edit: better link, with video.
I’ve never actually lol’ed at a Linux meme until today.
DraftKings killed Vegas by taking the main money-maker of Vegas and putting it on people’s phones.
Hard agree with this. Does Reddit even have lawyers, or are they just using ChatGPT? Google, Meta, and Tik Tok already paid PII misuse fines for less than this. everything listed is part of the GDPR extended PII list.

Wait…am I fake?
For real, I think the question about “should I eat a whole chocolate cake” sort of opened the flood gates to people asking anything.
Meanwhile, OP said ask them anything - they answered like 3 questions. Answers were never promised, just the ability to ask anything.
Don’t be afeared, be bold. Be brave. Know you are taking a great leap forward that others are too timid to take.
