The year is 2024. Solar panels you installed from Alibaba begins to search for cell towers. Your local instance of LLM voice bot you built to keep you company is using a malicious npm package that suddenly communicates with the solar panels and starts sending packets to a Chinese server.
- malfist 3y agoYour solar panels are talking to China, your lightswitch is part of a massive botnet promoting bitcoin on X, your car is selling your data to your insurance company to have an excuse to raise your rates, your browser is protecting your privacy by routing all your sensitive information through their servers for them to inspect. Your phone is selling your location for antiabortion fanatics to harass you, or help your stalker find you. Your ISP is selling your browsing history to anyone with a dollar. That databroker that everyone was selling too just went to bankrupt and the banks are selling your data to anyone with a penny. We desperately need wholesale privacy regulation.
