They will use it as another excuse to damage education.

Ya this sounds like a solution that could solve plastic waste by polluting the planet with extreme amounts of some other compound, and ultimately be far worse.

I understood that reference

The tax on cigarettes is basically just racketeering; the government extracting a cut from drug addicts. The tax went well beyond the burden on the healthcare system a long time ago, and they don’t even use it on the healthcare system, so fuck 'em.

They were stupid to think they could increase it forever without a black market filling the gap. Neolibs have learned nothing.

Lol. The only thing this setting does is hide the information from the user. Google, or a thousand other data brokers (many probably created by Google for this purpose) still retain that data indefinitely.

Get with the vibes, man!

My bills have bills to pay!

And we’ll do it all with hopes and dreams

100%. Half the time I get blocked due to VPN or whatever I just close the tab and go with my life. The rest of the time I try all known workarounds. If those fail, I just go with my life.

My hatred for monopolisation and enshittification is stronger than my desire to watch content on any platform.

Just like he did with the eggs!

I guarantee you none of your data is actually deleted. Experian is a surveillance capitalism data broker. They’re selling both the virus and the snake oil to “cure” it.

Got em!

There are at least 70 million weapons-grade mentally-ill people in the USA, radicalized and stupified with decades of psychological warfare.

It has not on the high seas. Also Disney shows the old 4:3 episodes in 16:9, cropping away like 30% of the image. I hate the way corpos rape art and culture.

Have they removed that dogshit crypto they added a few years ago? Haven’t donated since.

Signal was never more than a stepping stone anyway. Centralised privacy services, that can be taken down by any government, are doomed to fail under surveillance capitalfascism.

I was expecting something like “MyPeeSmells” when I scrolled back up. I’m more disappointed than I should be.

That’s what I thought but those are the “official” estimates, which do strangely focus on NYC.

I guess we’re talking about a fascist-oligarch-owned MSM who profit from war and chaos so they had a vested interest to suppress the real opposition.

I was about to say the list was incomplete as several million attended the Iraq war protests, but it turns out that was global and only a few hundred k Americans bothered to protest the invasion of Iraq based on manufactured propaganda.

The post 9/11 bloodthirsty hysteria, “you’re either with us or against us” dissonance, religious nationalism, and ignorant patriotism is what made me believe the US would become an authoritarian dictatorship in my lifetime. Great job teenage me. I hate it.

To frame it another way; they were enshittified by the infinite-profit-growth fallacy and corruption of capitalism.

Lol. I feel ya!
