As much as I dislike the dystopian hellhole that is present day's tech, I can't agree with this. You're uploading some data to their platform. Just keep a copy

You're uploading some data to their platform. Just keep a copy. If people are coddled they don't learn.
- hilbert42 1y agoWhat's your specific disagreement? If it's that I'm still uploading data to Google then it can't be much. Google's apps have been removed and a firewall blocks any third party ones from the internet that aren't from F-Droid.
- Intralexical 1y agoYou can't fault people for using a popular service that's advertised as safe. Maybe the solution is laws requiring prominent disclosure of high-impact practices like this. How many people would use Youtube if the sign-up page said, in bold red letters: WE CAN AND WILL DELETE USERS' ENTIRE ACCOUNT AND LIVELIHOOD AT ANY TIME. YOU WILL HAVE NO RECOURSE OR EXPLANATION. WE DON'T REALLY EVEN EMPLOY HUMANS FOR CUSTOMER SUPPORT. Only half joking.
