I think they probably wake up thinking exclusively about how to increase their net worth, through politics and marketing, at the expense of low information voters.

Have you seen the price of a decent piece of avocado toast though?

1990: “We don’t do that, do that yourself at home. GTFO”

2024: Starts at $11.95 just for avocado, addons are extra

A lot of the work they do is aimed at thwarting the business models of cyber criminals, scam sites, etc.

Their reviews are probably from the people who had a good thing going using bots to scrape PII or take advantage of free trials/free tier SaaS products but were suddenly put out of business by cloudflares captcha tools.

In 7 days, the new poll numbers are going to be real nail biters.

No. Read closely. Both require it to be in the app.

It’s Apple Review Guideline 5.1.1:

(i) Privacy Policies: All apps must include a link to their privacy policy in the App Store Connect metadata field and within the app in an easily accessible manner…

For Android it’s in their User Data article:

Privacy Policy All apps must post a privacy policy link in the designated field within Play Console, and a privacy policy link or text within the app itself…

It is a requirement of both Android and iOS app stores to have a policy prominently displayed for users.

This seems shitty for consumers, but I think it’s not new shit - it’s just a window into the reality of exploitation we have all been living with our entire lives and it’s uncomfortable to confront that giant turd we don’t like to think about.

Retailers like maximum profit and they are going to point to supply/demand to justify it. With these digital price tags, they’re just equipped to do it more quickly and more often.

At first, I was thinking: What if I grab an item from the shelf and then it’s 20% more expensive by the time I get to checkout. Then, I realized they’re just going to claim I saw the final price on the checkout summary and should have denied the purchase at that time.

If we legislate anything, it should be the clarity around checkout/returns imo.

Oh yeah, valid point!

Try the Hogo mobile app - they will do some of these for you for free every month or pay a month and do removals on all the sites they cover, then discontinue.

Capitalism is like an unstoppable, unavoidable virus that has already breached the farthest reaches of the world. It’s almost like every single person on the planet is born into it and cannot escape it for the entire duration of their lives - their deaths approaching ever faster, the less capital they accrue.

See how just stating the obvious sounds like a criticism of Capitalism itself?

I am not criticizing Capitalism, but I am being honest about some dark truths about it. If I had to venture a guess, I would say people who know the true nature of the beast are better prepared to tame it and become wealthy.

Some of those people are also going to sound like they are criticizing Capitalism whenever they broadcast the truth they know.

Why would you answer your front door for police at all?

If they’re saying “we’re breaking down the door” or something, I can imagine answering but, otherwise, I’m not saying a word and I’m hoping they just go away.

I do not pronounce that part of a URL. Who still does that? Why would you need to do that?

Neither of those links contain information relevant to their privacy pro removal product, which only runs on your local device and is definitely not supported by advertisements.

However, I suppose I can see how you may not trust the brand due to their browser and search engine have integrated ad tracking.

I 2nd the DuckDuckGo recommendation.

The way their service works is the MOST private imo. Runs locally and shares minimal data during the takedown request process.

Yes, really! I thought you might find the post I’m linking above interesting. It was at the top of my feed this morning and may be relevant here.

I am curious if maybe you were witnessing people of the Boomer generation (or older GenX) discussing this because they are more likely to be consuming mainstream broadcast news?

lol

It feels like the novelty of an attempted XPOTUS assassination wore off in less than 48 hours. That’s crazy.

Nobody around me is even talking about this anymore - not at work, not on social, not at the grocery store, nowhere.

Idk if that’s due to everyone being super jaded or because it’s Trump. If it’s because it’s him, then I wonder if it’s because nobody gives a shit about him or if it’s just not surprising someone would take a shot at him or just because it’s irrelevant to his candidacy or what else.

It’s a little spurious to compare dogs to humans in the way it’s described in this infographic.

It makes a lot of sense if dog owners keep their dogs in dog parks, where they only encounter dogs, and not childrens’ parks or really any public space where they may encounter kids.

If your dog’s personal space gets violated by a 2 year old and they bite the kid, then your dog deserves a swift extrajudicial death.

Animals just don’t have the same rights/protections and do not deserve to ever obtain them, imo. It does not help to project human rights onto dogs in the way this infographic does.
