yeah which is sad really, the mainstream has unfortunately given up about it. The few of us who do are screaming into a void, it would take something apocalyptic. Thought the cambridge analytical thing and the election would make people see but money talks i guess.

Oracle will operate in partnership with the US government on everything from algorithm retraining to application development and source code review, the White House official said. It wasn’t immediately clear what role the government might have in oversight of the app, its algorithm and user data.

every article just glosses over the fact a major platform that people use to get/share information (with also a lot of personal data collected) is about to be controlled by the US government and a few of the president’s friends. No one is talking about how bad this will be its just "china bad’.

I only had an account to watch people livestreams concerts, protests, etc… Imagine the amount of suppression and propaganda if something like the L.A riots/free palestine movement happen again but the government controls what you see.

I personally dont think you need to switch to a dumb phone to get those benefits, smartphones themselves arent what’s causing issues its what you’re using. You want less distraction just stop using those apps or turn off push notifications.

relax its not that deep

well I am absolutely shocked that meta could be so careless about people’s private data, its inconceivable 😧😧 they would never do such a thing.

you know what I’m gonna try this lmao couldn’t possibly hurt at this point

I know 😔 I thought maybe I’d just try I’ve always been told to ask

you can turn it off (for now)

do not use this site its filled with weirdos not to mention we don’t need another echo chamber to radicalize more people

another echo chamber is not a good idea that’s the reason the US in this current state

I’ve never heard of the Halloween files I just looked it up and that’s just so crazy. I don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors in their c-suite but I wouldn’t be surprised if this fund is a way to get their hands into open source projects. Like you said there’s no explicit proof so it’s best to be cautious.

yes exactly, my problem is not the money. I don’t expect these project to always be free and I support those I can, sponsorship is good. These giant tech firms have used free projects all the time to make money without providing any support so its fine that they’re supporting them. My problem is that I do not trust Microsoft at all.

with what money

I chuckled
