Yes, and that's very sad. However the solutions are pretty obvious:
Car -> unplug the cellular modem (more or less easy)
TV -> used as dumb monitor with a Linux HTPC
Phone -> GrapheneOS
PC -> Linux
Social media -> /dev/null
Email/DNS/cloud -> my own
The real issue is that most people are not aware of these issues and may even (unintentionally) compromise your own privacy by posting information or pictures of you to Facebook or other similar places.
- rglynn 11mo ago> Social media -> /dev/null That made me chuckle, absolutely right though!
- stavros 11mo agoI love how these comments are made on a social media website.
- drnick1 11mo agoHN is not a social media platform in the traditional sense. For one, it is completely anonymous, unless your "handle" is somehow linked to a real identity (by choice or otherwise). It's very, very different from posting every aspect of your life on a platform like Facebook.
- gnabgib 11mo agoAnonymousness does not make a platform unsocial (Twitter, 4chan, 8chan, reddit, HN, IRC, PlentyOfFish, X, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, Tinder, StumbleUpon, FourSquare, BeReal, WhatsApp, democratic voting, any forum, YouTube, Wikipedia, any BBS)
