  • But using Samsung Health means it will be locked down in their ecosystem, and also most likely harvested for whatever they want that data for; most likely more ads for their smart juicer or smart fridge or something.

    For sure!

    The app I am currently using is called Calory. Sadly it’s not FOSS. I run an older version and block internet access to it so I don’t get the nag screens to pay their subscription pricing.

    I pretty much agree.

    The only thing I would add is that it’s not our place to tell others to lose weight or to point out their weight; people already know they are overweight and that it’s unhealthy. We shouldn’t be policing other people’s bodies.

    It’s also possible to be overweight and have body positivity; being overweight doesn’t equate to being unattractive.

    I think the law should be changed; copyright law is kind of a mess, but I don’t know how to make it better. It would also need to be changed in a way that’s fair, which these companies absolutely do not want; fairness would mean the end of laws like the DMCA.





  • Yeah Google claims it’s not recording, storing or being sent the conversations or sharing them with anyone, and that this is all done ‘on-device’.

    The thing is, I don’t trust them. At all.

    Maybe the terms and conditions will silently change. Maybe their definitions of “recording” and “save” will change. Maybe they’re blatantly lying and are willing to pay a fine if they get caught.

    Google’s whole business model is harvesting and selling people’s data, so I have to assume the worst intentions.
