“Self defense”

“Bro full self driving is 5 years away bro trust me bro”

The point is that it’s a loophole in privacy laws so they don’t have to outright tell people that they collect personal or identifying information. So they can legally mislead people by claiming it’s anonymous telemetry in hopes that users don’t actually look into it or understand the implications.

“Satan fires hellfire minister beelzebub”

You shouldn’t get to participate in an international organization while murdering the aid workers employed by said organization.

This is just another attempt to destroy the UN.

Burh Israel literally, explicitly called for the UN to be destroyed, and named them a terrorist organization (and of course also played the antisemitic card).

Ad firm money.

Maybe I’m just cynical, but my first instinct when I see stuff like this is they have a secret contract with an advertiser and are selling this information.

Like if you’re going to use Arch btw, go all the way and use actual Arch.

Those are absolutely ways of covertly identifying your device while technically not counting as “personal information” under privacy laws.

It’s not fucking over Microsoft, it’s prevent Microsoft from fucking us over. Microsoft is not the victim in this.

Does Israel not see how similarly to Hitler they’re acting?

Or is that the point and their express intent is to perpetuate their very own holocaust against people they themselves deem the Untermensch?

I mean, I know the answer, but

And as always, the majority response to this will absolutely be something along the lines of “I support writers but you can fuck right off if you expect me to inconvenience myself in the slightest most superficial way in solidarity with you because actually having to modify my behavior in the simplest way is where I draw the line.”

Trusting your security to Google is literally like trusting a fox to guard your hen house.

Especially ironic considering they were horribly unreliable for long term data storage

Don’t be silly, the US doesn’t help people, that’s un-American commie shit.

This video from a security researcher says that pretty much every software that uses WebP was affected though, and once the issue was discovered, Google made commits in their own codebase to “fix” it. Which suggests it’s an issue with the upstream source code that Google provided to everyone else.

It should also be noted that the biggest proponent of the idea that decolonization means turning the tables and just moving around the designations of first and second class citizens, is the colonizers themselves, because that’s the only reality they know. You see this in discussions regarding decolonization in the US/Canada as well, where white people think that somehow means Indigenous people are going to force them out of their houses and kidnap their children as some kind of revenge for white people doing those exact things to Indigenous peoples. That’s not what decolonization is, but colonizers keep insisting it is because they simply can’t think of it in any other terms, and/or they know full well that they’re lying and are deliberately building up a strawman against decolonization in hopes of preventing it from happening.

The EU should put their money where their mouth is and carve out a portion of their own territories into a Jewish state then (not US territory since that would only result in Indigenous land being further colonized). Instead of them insisting that the Jews need their own homeland on someone else’s land.
