Yes. They have conversion optimization which means non apple tracking.

It's not for sale. You rent the ability to license an abstraction of it to do ad targeting, FB and Google dont sell data to anyone.

My argument is - this data doesn't hurt anyone, is not likely to hurt anyone, and it is valuable enough that banning ad targeting is a mistake. Per your specific harm: Thank you for actually responding with a real potential harm, the f

FYI - referring to Cambridge Analytica like it has any meaningful relationship to privacy, ad tech or election results is the silliest thing you can say to someone who has any understanding of the subject. Cambridge Analytica is a like a ca

They has grown enormously as Apple used its monopoly power to make every other advertiser less effective. Apple still uses the same user targeting they banned for every other advertiser, of course.

As a professional advertiser who has worked in political ads, I can tell you it had no effect on any of the results of these campaigns. A bunch of bad people hired them after the Trump campaign because they bought the fluff too.

Data privacy is one of the least important issues of our day. People (especially on HN) get very passionate about it but are unable to produce specific harms Google and Meta ad tracking creates. Could there be an issue in the future? Possib

Hardwood in the USA is mostly farm grown, so I'm not concerned.

I know someone who just had an issue, they couldn't get any screen recorder through security. This is probably a good way around that.

Such a great idea

China banned all our social networks, we ban their's, simple trade stuff works.

Considering I've voted only democratic in every election in my life, and volunteered to help progressive candidates manage their campaigns in swing states, you're waaaay off base on my politics.

Yes, a history of trying to get to the truth of matters even if it's not popular in the zeitgeist. Look at fsociety's comment in this same thread to see just how much misinformation is out there (which he helpfully corrects) It ju

That's frankly sensible? There are three hundred+ countries on earth, to monitor all of their "fake networks" would take an organization like the CIAs. It's like saying its greed that Apple doesn't solve the family

I promise you Meta doesn't give a shit about the $8 in ads its getting from Myanmar per year. This is more an issue of a giant corporation not noticing that some users in a foreign country speaking in a foreign language were doing horr

The United States is now the largest producer of oil in the world, if that helps.

Also oil is insanely cleaner to burn than coal or wood

This just let's you see which writers are incompetent which is a good thing. People who copy and paste chat GPT without checking would have shit papers regardless.

"Signs of undeclared Microsoft Word spellcheck use in papers mounting." Such alarmist tones would sound really silly when applied to other dumb productivity tools. In the end, the quality of the paper is what should be judged.

I mean there is, just not HN. Italy voted to ban ChatGPT!

Yeah but any productivity increasing tech decreases the size of the market to some extent, that's a separate issue than ownership

AI is creating new value from old assets. Those old assets were already paid for in their original use. It's like saying I should pay Apple a dollar because their inspired me to make my site white and minimal or something.

And I'd happily bet that even with extra wet bulb events, death rate will be lower and life expectancy higher at the equator. And I would assign a .0001% chance of a single wet bulb event killing millions of people.
