  • Student Teacher Sent a Private Snapchat Complaining About Her Workday. An Hour Later, Police Pulled Up to Her School.

  • The first documented school shooting in the US was in the 1920s. While they were not as prevalent, they continued happening and climbing. Then the 90s got way worse, the 2000s even worse. So, mass surveillance has been on the rise just like school shootings have been on the rise. Now read your comment again and see if it makes any sense.

  • So, she was willing to trust Snapchat to secure her privacy, whereas you had to earn her trust for her to believe you would secure her privacy, while being in a relationship with you. This goes to show how the population thinks. Corporations will take care of me, but the people around me will fuck me over. 😒

  • Where I live there is little to no mass surveillance, and the only "shootings" in schools are the high school students shooting alcohol hidden from the teachers.

    We do have crime, like every other country, but by population count, it's not that bad.

    There are cameras in most key intersection in major cities, and they are monitored by the emergency services, but no plate readers or face recognition whatsoever.

  • I would be behind your statement if you said it 10, or even 5, years ago, but right now, and to use your own term, that teacher is the one being obtuse. Everyone sees all these news on privacy invasion by corporations and governments on a daily basis. Choosing to do nothing about it does not make you a victim.

    It would be a different story if there were no alternatives, but that is not the case, at least not yet.

  • Yeah, I can see how that's a fact. I guess that the bad parts of anything are generally louder than the good ones, which would have your comment make sense. But also, there is no denying that the bad parts are way more prevalent than the good ones as well.

    So in this context, yes, there are some sectors and industries in which costs have decreased, but the vast majority have increased, and most of those will just keep climbing, at least that's how I see it.

  • Would you be kind enough to rephrase your post in a way that even us, non-(whateverthatwas)-speaking individuals, can potentially make out what you said?

  • I hope so too, but I'm not holding my breath. People keep showing that critical thinking is an old paradigm that most of humanity is unwilling to interact with. In short, not happening! 🤣

  • That is what capitalism was supposed to be, yet, here we are. I want what you say, but that is wishful thinking at this point. Unless some weird company or individual with unlimited funds decides at some point to do just that, which would make all other businesses rethink their ways because every client would be jumping ship, I honestly don't see that happening in oír lifetime.

  • During his campaign he made, like any other fucking politician, many promises that were unhinged for anyone that knows anything on how the government infrastructure works at the federal, state and city levels, and of course that made me instantly put him together with the rest of the politicians. Don't get me wrong, the other 2 candidates were infinitely worse, no discussion there. As expected, when he won, and took office, he had to pedal back on some of those promises. However, as I said, I AK happy for New Yorkers to see that I was wrong about the guy, as he keeps surprising me in the best way possible. Now, make no mistake, he is still a politician, and I hold absolutely no faith in any of them, left, right, center, up or down. But the guy is, by miles, the best official in any seat in the US right now. I also like Kennedy from Texas, but for entirely different reasons. The guy is a solid attorney and will destroy his opponents with facts, even if he doesn't like the facts himself. Again, he is a politician, so I'm sure he's full of shit too, but it is fun to see him perform though. Full disclosure, I'm jot from NY, but I would certainly like a mayor in my city like Mandani, ours is a fucking moron that can't tell chocolate from shit 😒

  • I honestly doubt that those savings would go to the clients, in all likelihood, they would just become profit margin.

  • This guy keeps proving me wrong about not liking him. Good stuff. I love being wrong when its beneficial to citizens of wherever. And he seems to be the one politician in the US actually doing something good, who would have thought?

  • What from Over, Doordash or any of the others lead you to think it'll be cheaper if/when that happens? Because these companies don't have a spectacular record of looking for ways to save the customers any money, as far as I'm aware.

  • We use international couriers in our country that provide a very nice service. For online purchases in the US, Europe and China, when you subscribe (not a subscription though, bit that's what they call it) you get an ID that is basically your PO box with the company, and they have physical addresses in Miami, Barcelona and Shenzen (I think that's how it's spelled) and you can buy from pretty much anywhere, they will receive it, bring it into the country (legally, so we may need to pay customs depending on item, FOB price and amounts) and charge a fixed fee per pound.

    This has allowed us to buy from anywhere. I've been able to get StarLabs laptops while also buying pixel phones in the US to flash with GrapheneOS.

    I'm pretty sure more countries have similar facilities.
