sadly @aero_planes@twitter.com is still a bit of an incomplete experiment; I wish there were a free source of more interesting data (it seems to pick up planes by aircraft registration only; no flight or operator info)
(hell yeah im getting in on that discounted battery replacement for my poor iPhone SE, though)
I guess all I can do is continue to regard these things with suspicion, avoid enabling such systems myself as a programmer, and try to empower people who will listen and not consider me a tin foil hatted weirdo with the facts of the matter?
@vahnj oh okay
I thought I’d missed some Homestuck-Splatoon crossover event
splatfest: whods your favourite uh, person with halloween snack on their head
I don’t know how to make you care about your privacy when it’s clearly already being implicitly eroded by the governments and corporations you interact with no matter what you personally do, and it honestly makes me despair
everyone who can access this data is using it to shove you into a set of ever more specific marketing facets which ultimately reveal more about you to those who get to show you their ads than much that’s useful
I don’t think that’s okay, I don’t think this is ethical technology
Facebook leeching your data out of every part of your phone you consent, knowingly or not, to them accessing is one thing, but the unavoidable data-based assumption engine everything else gets put in is creepy as hell, too
@giantessgnostic I mean, given the queer posts seem to have disappeared all mysterious-like… I doubt it
@sc but why
@vahnj what’s that got to do with anything????
