Every request first goes through "trusted attesters" (read: Google and pretty much Google alone) along with some information about your device (hardware information, browser data, executable hash, etc) for them to sign it and deci

Absolute and utter bullshit, and you know it. Sam Altman is always in for a single person: himself. I have never seen less altruistic, less simple to understand than him [0]. Everything, the world ID, the money, the coins, is just a pretens

Here's how this goes: WEI randomly fails, website sees it, has never implemented any error checking (or fails on purpose without WEI), WEI becomes effectively mandatory. Google is a gun manufacturer telling people on the other end of i

Thank you for proving my points: small to medium businesses do not see me as a person either, but as a customer. They don't care if it's @oh_god_pls_no spending 100 bucks, or @arghwhat spending 100 bucks. We're both just a wa

The same Brave that is selling data for AI companies, which may or may not include personal data ? I'd say it's probably not a good day for Brave advocacy. Neither is any other day.

Yes, misuse and misappropriation of funds is such an uncommon event for fortune 500 companies. Especially the CEO, they have to justify every little expense! In what wonder world are you living?

It's true, they merely have enough cash on hand to fund a small army, enough legal power to crush you in court with anything you attempt. Make no mistake: if Apple needed to get someone killed, they would. They're not some miracul

You seem to misunderstand what unionisation is. The current state of things has been reached as kind of a gentleman's agreement. If employers want to revert to life threatening solutions, unions will revert to life threatening solution

If you think all LVMH workers have good working conditions, or that materials are sourced ethically, I have bad news for you. Quality doesn't prevent the search of profit maximization. Hell, luxury goods aren't even about quality.

You've built up your very own strawman, and are arguing with it. ACAB is not "deeply connected" to defunding the police. And it's not also a solution to a problem: it's an opinion, a observation of facts. All cops a
