Now imagine the israelies come to your home and claim part of it. After you rightfully defend yourself they start to claim more of yours because not giving your home up makes you greedy? That doesn’t make senese
The courts very likely will strike something like this down, but the people responsible know this. Court dealings can take years and during this time our privacy gets violated and some kind of profit is made.
And even when this law is declared illegal the existing data will likely be kept, only new collection is stopped (happened in Germany)
I am very new into this chat applications and read about IRC and Matrix. Matrix seems its more new and modern. So I just wonder what’s the reason you are still using IRC?
If this turns out to be good I’m gonna keep it in my back pocket for the next time I have a psych patient who really likes to creatively write (…and is also not actively detached from reality LOL)...
Set ~150 years in the future, where humans gained the ability to augment their bodies with all kinds of implants. A middle-aged doctor decides to offer her services for free for people who need them, after she has seen the suffering that people cast aside by mega-corps have to bear. Noticing that many of her patients suffer from malfunctioning implants, that were practically forced on them by their workplace, so she contacts an old friend. This friend is sympathetic to her cause and offers their services as an electrical engineer specialized in designing interfaces between nerve systems and implants. Together they discover that these malfunctions are intentionally created, so corporations have another stream of revenue.
By helping the affected people, they slightly cut into the profit of a certain corporation, that sends a covert operative to check what is going on. After the doctor is “discovered”, this operative gets the order to eliminate the thread to the corpo’s profit. He decides to pose as a patient in need and assassinate the doctor, but fails for some reason. After that, he uses some kind of implant/tech to change his appearance to approach the doctor again (and uses swords, maybe?)
For the record, I fully support what the remaining mod team is doing, they are a wonderful group and I trust them completely. I don’t regret the choices I made, only that my actions got a few other mods shit canned in the process.
Thank you and @dessalines and other contributors for your effort. It must be really overwhelming to suddenly have so many new people using lemmy. Being overloaded is to be expected in these circumstances. Please make sure that you don't overwork yourselves now and set limits on how much work you do.
