@HetareKing@hobata Yeah, I’m not seeing a lot of good intentions behind surveillance-capitalism, and the road to hell was well-paved with no good intention whatsoever.
@hobata@E_coli42 Yeah, I’m not seeing any of that on reading the blog. Controlling who has access to your stuff is not fascism, techno or otherwise. If the proposal was to make it mandatory, it would be very different. I elect to put my product behind mild hoops, or not. You choose to access it, or not.
@davel@hobata Is there something to this beyond the headline. I’m mildly annoyed by these posts that just link back to themselves. What the hell is that all about?
All I can take from the headline is, yeah, the consent model is basically Old West with richer Rancher Barons.
@wide_eyed_stupid@arararagi I will never read the TOS and if it says I can’t use the machine I own as I see fit, they can shove the EULA and the DMCA it rode in on up their ass sideways.
@ekZepp Skynet in the background furiously taking notes.

@E_coli42 I’ll take a look at the blog post.
@E_coli42 Thank you for that link. What shows up for me on the original post is just a link back to the post itself, as demonstrated in the image…👇
@HetareKing @hobata Is there a link to this blog post somewhere? All I’m getting is a headline and a circular link back to the headline.

@Li @wide_eyed_stupid @Gsus4 And you’re likely violating some combination of DMCA and some PATRIOT Acts.

@wide_eyed_stupid @Gsus4 “You will own nothing, and if you don’t like it you can talk to the security cyberdog that has you in its sights.”
@Pro So…
The link is right back to this post? Was that… intentional?
