#DeutscheBahn so geht das nicht. ihr habt #Digitalisierung falsch verstanden. sie bedeutet nicht zwang und überwachung, sondern zusätzliche optionen und mehr #freiheit. meine forderungen:
"Given that Microsoft has not been able to prevent massive hacks of its servers, this product — which will record everything you do on a Windows PC — qualifies as criminally insane."

"Satya Nadella says Windows PCs will have a photographic memory feature called Recall that will remember and understand everything you do on your computer by taking constant screenshots."

I guess making money somewhat honestly by having customers that actually pay for a service with at least some guarantees of privacy and safety is not as lucrative as having an open platform network where people are tricked into giving out all their data while they are spied upon for whatever reasons.

Our industry has never really questioned the notion that one-to-one marketing is a worthy goal. Rather than learn the lessons of the consumer rebellion that led to GDPR, CCPA, and countless other regulations, we are embarking on a new style of consumer spying based on a new set of private signals. Today we are leveraging those signals to bully people into buying stuff they don’t need as well as instill in them irrational fears in order to prompt them to support anti-democracy candidates.
Why are we repeating the same mistakes? And make no mistake about it, the “alternatives” to third-party cookies function in the same way; they log a consumer’s private behavior and use it to follow them around the internet. Today we stand on the dawn of cookie-free advertising, tasked with reimagining the world. Instead, we are dangerously close to a colossal failure of imagination. Our focus is on identity resolution graphs and hashed emails — the exact kind of tracking we had with third-party cookies. Call it surveillance capitalism 2.0."
If you want to understand how startups and venture capital work, go to 26:24 on the recording of my talk “Excuse Me, Your Unicorn Keeps Shitting In My Back Yard, Can He Please Not?” from 2016:
Fmr US AMB to IS, Jeff Gunter, will spend $1M of his own money on initiatives: 'Build the Wall', 'DEPORT THEM ALL', develop a website & reporting mechanism for everyday citizens to report suspicious activity... to compete in NV's R Sen primary. His goal: win the primary & unseat the Dem Senator.
It's pretty creepy (but not at all surprising) that the distinguishing feature between ChatGPT Enterprise and ChatGPT Team seems to be that Enterprise lets you surveil your users and Team does not. Enterprise has no price tag, and just says just to contact sales.
Note: I'm not seriously considering either product.
If you've ever found yourself missing the "good old days" of the #web, what is it that you miss? (Interpret "it" broadly: specific websites? types of activities? feelings? etc.) And approximately when were those good old days?
No wrong answers — I'm working on an article and wanted to get some outside thoughts.
@molly0xfff my first job out of college was in IT before the internet. We setup some Token Ring and Arcnet netwoks, then Novell. As gopher dimmed and www rose I was excited to get onto the Internet which required understanding how to install and configure the stack. Now I can't wait to get off the internet because it has become so hostile and aggressive in data gathering and behavioral control. The peak for me was closer to gopher than to #surveillancecapitalism certainly. I miss nerd civiliity.
