How the bots aggregate upvotes that are likely veterans.

Lemmy is public, y'all. Be careful.

What perceived risk are you trying to imply?

I think he is trying to imply that anyone upvoting is feeding data into a profile. Which yeah, I assume all my comments and updoots are. That's why I updoot everything that isn't spam.

That since voting is public, profiles which tend to upvote posts about the military greater than average would be doxxing themselves a bit, even if not commenting.

Ah you’re one of those “I’m a soldier so everything in life is always a threat to me” kind of people.

I'm a privacy advocate.

The exact same thing can be done with femcel memes or Pride Month posts for people who live in a county where equality is illegal. Or anything not glowingly in love with ICE.

Anyone here that pings a probable for military that also likes a few .ml socialist posts, or femcel memes, or pride month posts, would instantly get put on a watch list.

If you've never watched police gladly and publicly hunt someone down because of a single picture on Facebook, then you don't understand how quickly someone can become a target of state harassment.

That is an Olympic level leap you made there.
