  • Why the Flock Backlash Has Gotten So Intense. The sudden anger about these cameras seems to reflect more than just wariness about the surveillance system.

  • Arguing against that point is not our path to victory. There is a real theoretical benefit to these security cameras. I will not judge on how true the benefit is in reality, because that really isn’t relevant to this discussion.

    We must hammer home the personal downsides that outweigh any perceived security benefits. Go to your city council meeting, but before you go, look up what information data brokers have for sale about each city council member. Say the creepy shit you found about them to their face to make the privacy invasion real to them personally.

    (The recent GamersNexus story about LG spying showed him doing this at his local city council meeting and the looks on the board members’ faces clearly showed that they went from not paying any attention to the boring meeting to actively shitting their pants and trying to hide it. It was glorious.)

  • Those same people were foaming at the mouth about how Bush was Jesus. Those same people were foaming at the mouth that Obama would build mandatory mosques and force them into hijabs.

    They forget their own bullshit as soon as they stop spewing it.

  • Well, he does turn on his allies about every 24 hours, but for reasons I will never understand some other sucker fills the role immediately.

  • LG TV shown scanning LAN for third-party phones and other devices

    Jump

  • It’s weird that this is the takeaway from that investigation that big media is pushing.

    This is maliciously burying the headline that LG TVS ARE TRANSCRIBING EVERY WORD THEY HEAR IN YOUR HOUSE AND THEY’RE UPLOADING A TEXT LOG OF IT.

  • The room being Chinese adds nothing to the thesis. It’s just Chinese because the guy who wrote it thought Asia was mystical and mysterious.

  • First of all, pedophilia is not exclusive to any gender. I think you need to examine your hateful biases.

  • You don’t know the difference between a slur and a curse word? Most people learn the difference by around age 6.

  • They will never make another car with that naming scheme because the current lineup spells “SEXY” and Elon Musk is a pathetic manchild. Shoutout to Ford Motor Company for forcing him to rename it to the model 3 instead of E and forever ruining his stupid joke.

  • God AI “philosophers” are such a wanky bunch. And apparently racist to boot!

  • Your LG TV Might Be Spying on Your Entire Network While You Think It's Turned Off

  • Because it is done by a wealthy corporation. See also: rootkits from Sony.

  • This is terrible and useless security advice. There is actually a whole lot you can do besides just giving up.

  • Onlookers fear ‘something very wrong’ with Trump as he claims US ownership of the moon - Raw Story

  • Is there a source other than rawstory? They tend to churn out made up copium.

  • Is the laptop cooling ok with the lid closed? Or do you crack it open when actually in use?

  • The stated justification is that it somehow catches forgeries that altered the front of an ID but didn’t make the barcode information match. That might have been justifiable in like 1980 or something, but it’s reaaaaaaally not hard to generate the correct barcode these days if you’re forging an ID.

    The real reason is to track and sell more data about you.

  • That…doesn’t work. Just because you saw one dumb YouTuber say something doesn’t make it true.
