If a bank or a CC company scans your face for whatever reason and then shares that info like they do with credit scores by default today - your data will be available on the marketplace

It's the video comment I replied to, the link under "Sorry"

Ai summary:

  • Yellowstone's Stability: Contrary to popular belief, Yellowstone is not a ticking time bomb for civilization-ending eruptions; significant volcanic activity is unlikely in the near future.
  • Monitoring Technology: Yellowstone is one of the most closely monitored volcanoes globally, with advanced technologies in place to detect signs of potential eruptions, providing ample warning if necessary.
  • Uplift and Subsidence: The patterns of uplift and subsidence in Yellowstone are normal and not indicative of imminent eruptions, as they are consistent with historical geological activity.
  • Magma Reservoirs: Yellowstone contains two distinct magma reservoirs, but current data indicates that they are not sufficiently molten to trigger a large eruption.
  • Earthquake Activity: While Yellowstone experiences numerous earthquakes, most are small and not caused by magma buildup; they are more often related to the movement of water through the crust.
  • Misuse of Terminology: The term "supervolcano" is not scientifically rigorous and can be misleading; Yellowstone's eruptions can vary widely in style and intensity.
  • Historical Eruptions: Although Yellowstone has had significant eruptions in the past, it is not overdue for another supereruption; volcanic systems do not operate on predictable schedules.
  • Potential Decline in Activity: Evidence suggests that Yellowstone's volcanic activity may be winding down, possibly leading to a decrease in major eruptions in the future.
  • Impact of Eruptions: Historical eruptions larger than Yellowstone's did not lead to the end of civilization, and the ashfall from a potential eruption would not necessarily be catastrophic on a global scale.
  • Climate Effects: A supereruption would likely cause temporary global cooling and alter climate patterns, but humanity has survived past volcanic events without catastrophic consequences.

For me it's: Inciting violence, justifying conspiracy theories, Trump becoming president

I see the North Korea visit was pretty useful

I keep getting notified that I should upgrade my newpipe apk to a newer version through a url. F-Droid only has up to v0.25.2 but the latest is v0.26.1. It's been like that for >1w (the discrepancy), is this usual for F-Droid repos? Or something with my installation is wrong?

They should post a average price per user so we'll know what's the minimum to donate (probably 5$ which is the minimum in the app IIRC)

Lyft disabled scheduling rides through ride.lyft.com, I used that quite a bit but now in forced go use the app. The problem however, is that their app just doesn't work. It launches, says the Google API is necessary and then continues to close.

Does anyone know of an app that use their API that doesn't shut itself down without installing Google SDK?

In my view it's either my ISP seeing everything or someone else. I don't trust my ISP, I route my traffic to a different country where I don't live in and them viewing my activity is potentially less of a problem, in my view (just in case they do manage to de-anonymize me)

I saw an article awhile ago that the police just straight up bought ad-network data about someone they were prosecuting without needing a warrant. Is there anyway to know what info ad networks have on me out there?

I know there are databrokers you can query to see what they have kn you, but those are all public records from I could find so far

Answer: Signal

I wish people would use Signal, but Telegram is the closest thing to a sane privacy policy I've got. There are a few that luckily agreed to use Signal.

Waiting on interoperability, see how that's implemented in Signal+WhatsApp (hopefully with Telegram to so I can ditch that).

If each chat connection gets a unique ID and zero info on my [pseudo]identity then that's great! Otherwise if this means they'll plug me into their social network to profile me that way - nah, thanks

I noticed quite a bit of people not knowing you can opt out of the dead voice chat recording (where it transmits your mic audio when you die for a couple of seconds).

When I installed the game there was a prompt that asked for an opt-in, that was pretty short to read.

Do you think people automatically click "I consent" or is the prompt not very clear?

A lot of privacy guides suggest avoiding Telegram. I understand that in its default mode there's no E2EE (and no E2EE for groups at all). If people I know don't wanttko use Signal, isn't Telegram the lesser evil given it's nicer privacy policy (than other popular ones)?

Say I use the FOSS version of it.
