18 daysWhen data is stored on servers, it’s a different story, and you have an IT team supporting you.
Not the case for personal property, it’s a shitty deal.

1 monthI’m not hardcore Linux, I’m anti privacy invasive software. Privacy is already at war, why are we feeding all our data to AI bullshit?

1 monthIt isn’t malware by design, but too much power and corruption and even the idea someone could access it from something like this is bizarre. Why you’re defending it, I don’t know.
Look at flock cameras. The idea to find a missing child or someone in trouble instantly is great, until police start using access to stalk women and their exes.
Monroe County, Florida: Deputy Lamar Roman used an ALPR system to track and pull over a woman he met while working security on a TV set.
Milwaukee, Wisconsin: Former Officer Josue Ayala was criminally charged and resigned after he illegally tracked his ex-girlfriend and her new partner’s vehicles nearly 180 times. Another Milwaukee officer, Detective Chapman, was also criminally charged for using the Flock system to track a woman and placing a GPS device on her vehicle.
Software having kernel-level (Ring 0) access presents significant security and privacy risks, as it bypasses the operating system’s built-in memory isolation. This level of access grants applications unfettered control over the system, meaning any vulnerability can be exploited to compromise credentials, hijack hardware, or cause system-wide crashes.

1 monthWe’re sorry that youve only had experience with games that run micro transactions and brain rot. You could try better games and don’t just fall in with the 16 year olds playing cod 74. Unless you are 16…
Laws are wild.
Not just ai, but torrents and the like.
They used to give a fuck. I think they know they lost that battle.

1 monthUh, no? It just wants a username, not even an email or verification, literally just a single field. That’s not enough to whine about imo.
Hell, use ublock origin to block the box for crying out loud.
Open it in incognito and fill in gibberish. There, you can poke around all you want.





Seemed a little exaggerated. Ddos is no joke with botnets, but a JavaScript? All the script kiddies would be doing it.
