I would love to understand your thinking around not wanting to give apps microphone access while simultaneously being excited about the prospect of giving apps direct access to your literal brain.

- JohnMakin 2y agoIf my choice is two invasive technologies I’d probably end up choosing the one that works better, and I think it will be done irresponsibly, but if it means retaining access to the world around me, difficult to see any other real choice other than slowly becoming locked in one’s body. I have a degenerative muscle disease and only about 20 years left before my voice muscles will leave me, if my heart does not give out first. So, that is my thinking. Right now they simply don’t work well enough for me to adopt and give up that privacy, is the real issue with adoption (for me). If I regress further, and that’s all I can reach to, I would continue to try - just very frustrating to use.
