What a waste of time. Anyone who's not an architect or developer, but regularly works with architects and developers, intuitively reaches these conclusions. And this has been going on and on for almost ten years. When you watch this fr

I'm on the opposite spectrum: I think the intent to collect data is at least above 50%, meaning that gathering information on individuals visiting third-party platforms has taken precedence over training their model. Also, I think we s

Just finished reading the article. I already started disagreeing with the author while reading the first line. Mass exodus? What is he referring to? How does he differentiate mass exodus from being simply out of touch with users' needs

Fully agree. I will add two things. First, most "digital nomads" who interact with the public administration and institutions (e.g., banks) are not standard customers. Employees often have no clue how to deal with them and many pr

And you should, unless you have actual training in hiding your traces online (and I don't mean something as simple as "use Tor and a VPN"). There are three situations where you should not assume privacy: 1. When you express y

Meanwhile, the stock price kept growing since. Which, once again, confirms what I commented multiple times here on HN: when you see a large company getting its personal databases breached then sued for hundreds of millions, buy its stock. I

I see two candidate alternatives to your "Getting out of the dead end": 1. Give SK a few months/years until it realizes it is losing billions revenue nationally due to hacking by foreign entities and it will naturally invest

"Where is this coming from? Is it because we want our work to look important?" I am intimately convinced it could play a role, at two layers. First, at the framework layer itself: the plethora of propositions seems symptomatic of

I don't :) Or to be more precise: I gradually downgraded from storing everything to storing nothing. I put an incredible amount of effort in forcing myself not to keep track of content I encounter. I keep some bookmarks: interfaces I m

No, it's not tolerated, at least from me. I use incognito mode by default in my browsers and Wikipedia has become unusable with the constant begging. I stopped donating on a yearly basis when I realized their intrusive begging scheme

Short answer can be summarized as follows: Can X correlate data "that way" about users at scale and at an acceptable cost? If yes, then X does it. Works for all companies that generate revenue from targeted advertising (GAFAMs of
