- danielheath 1y agoMost of the "free" analytics tools for android/iOS are "funded" by running residential / "real user" proxies. They wait until your phone is on wifi / battery, then make requests on behalf of whoever has paid the analytics firm for access to 'their' residential IP pool.

- o11c 1y agoBecause in a "free" nation, that means "free to run malware" not "free from malware". By far most malware is legal and a portion of its income is used to fund election campaigns.

Even EU wants to regulate, will they charge big tech leaders and companies with information tech crimes which will pierce the corporate veil? It will ensure that nobody will invest in unsustainable AI growth in the EU. However fucking up economy and the planet is how the world operates now, and without infinite growth you lose buying power for everything. So everybody else will continue to do fuckery. 4. What can a regulating body do? Force disconnects for large swaths of internet? Then Internet is no more.
