It’s also completely wrong about the apps on iOS which have system level controls for approx and precise location.
On iOS Edge, and all other apps, have a precise location setting alongside the location settings, so is this only talking about Android?
You can choose to use approximate or precise location right in the settings:
If you have never selected it doesn’t even get your approximate location.
Valve takes 30% of all sales. What’s 30% of $60?
That’s why Ubisoft could sell their games for 30% cheaper on their own platform - they make the same amount of money as selling for $60 on Steam.
This has nothing to do with power bills?
Many of them are already looking to do this. Microsoft for example are looking at building their own nuclear reactor. X are looking at orbital data centres.
Oppose what, that you can be filmed or photographed without explicit consent when you’re in public?
So if I go to the Eiffel Tower, I have to go and ask the hundreds of other people there if they consent to me taking their photo simply because they’re in my photo? Or if I see a criminal breaking into a house, I have to ask them if I can take their photo/video if I want to report them and hand over my photos/video to the police?
What are you even trying to say?
No one has an expectation of privacy when they’re out in public. It’s right there in the name - public. The opposite of private.
Have a look at Anthropic and all their products to see that the actual model isn’t their main proprietary IP.
AI will absolutely be cheaper than it is now in the future, because you’ll actually be able to run it locally - look at the recently announced Nvidia powered Surface Ultra as an example of what’s coming.
Companies are trying to get their whole AI pipeline more efficient and “smaller” to reduce costs, because their costs to build and run data centres are astronomical. Where it will likely go is a subscription service to access their models that you run locally. Passes most of the cost on to consumers, and is recurring revenue which they all dream of.
Said like someone who doesn’t understand that AI is a tool that can greatly improve your work life and productivity.
If I was you I’d do some research into it, especially around GitHub copilot, and get learning - or you’re going to be left behind. If you’re a dev then you are signing your careers death warrant by having that attitude.
Good devs don’t rely on it to do their job, but use it to do their job better and more productively.
As a dev, copilot is amazing.
Sorry but the law is the law, and in public places you can and will be filmed and they don’t need your explicit consent. Which countries do you think it is illegal to film people in public places without explicit consent?
If you don’t like it, don’t go out in public. Also don’t pretend like anyone here is going to do anything to anyone wearing them lol. Everyone is a hero behind their keyboard. There would be no consequences.
They don’t “deserve” to, but it is not illegal if they are. If you’re in a public space you shouldn’t expect privacy……because you’re in a public place. That’s pretty obvious.
You don’t own “image rights” of yourself.
Doesn’t seem that straight forward from the article. It says you “generally” need consent, and that was said in regard to “filming and publishing”. What about just filming? The “generally” makes me think that this isn’t breaking any laws unless they publish it without consent.
Who is “they” here?
The fact is that if you’re in public you have no expectation of privacy………because you’re in public.
Looking at US laws it appears you’re wrong. Unless you’re in a bathroom or somewhere where privacy is expected, recording in public places without permission is completely legal.
I’m sorry but no one believes people when they say things like this, because it’s just not true. Pretending to be a tough guy on the internet is easy, but you’re not going to choose to go to jail because you saw a person with glasses on.
Are mobile phones banned in public? Cameras?
But you said it won’t pass muster in the US? I’m saying it does. Most of Europe also allows recording in public. Which countries don’t?
