The Electric sheep dreams go hard though /s

You're an outlier simply by being a desktop computer user instead of a laptop, phone, or tablet user.

Iirc child nudity isn't enough for something to be considered porn. It has to be gratuitous. Not sure if that is the same for transmitting online or not.

It's fakin weird by today's standards though and is probably handled very differently from one place to another

Your Tralala?

If I have to do this to log into my email one last time as I'm migrating out, I will write off all emails there as lost. If my phone makes me do it to unlock it, I will go out and by an iPhone on the spot. That makes me want to puke typing that out, because I hate iPhones, but I'll do it.

Yes this hand gesture

It should be considered a universal law of corporate behavior: any information that has theoretical value will eventually be sold.

Even if current management has no intention of exploiting it, they’ll be replaced by the board, or the division and its data will be spun off and sold for its IP—that’s how corporations work by nature (i.e., the purpose of a system is what it does).

I believe them as well from a very literal perspective. The video will be deleted but the metadata that is created from the video will not.

That’s just v1. At some point they’ll realize that bots can deepfake a human waving and they’re going to want to truly verify it’s you by verifying the position of moles on your body… Then they’ll have to save your data… to secure your account!

Soon they’ll realize to get good mole data they’ll need you to show more skin, as some people don’t have much on their face and their clothing could be hiding those juicy datapoints.

That’s when v2 hits. Flash google your titties to secure your account, don’t worry it’s super secure and we never share your titties with law enforcement agencies unless it’s required by law!

You’ll be walking through your local library because tech has gone to far and you need to unplug but as you walk by the rows of shared computers it’ll all be old people flashing their titties at the screen to continue watching ads on YouTube.

This will be like the proof of age face scans. Yes, the VIDEO is deleted, but the unique biometric code describing your face sure as hell won't be deleted. Focusing on deleting the video has got to be a deliberate distraction

we will learn that they have been using it to gather face recognition data

They already have all that with the trillions and trillions of photos people willingly backed up with Google photos.

Reasonable bet if they didn't already have root on devices in people's pockets, with cameras pointing at their faces for hours per day. Along with GPS, cell, WiFi and Bluetooth location services.

The video gets deleted, they say. But they don't say what happens to the data derived from that video. Training models and such.

For now.

Also the last time I tried using the audio option on recaptcha it felt like a psychotic break.
