I think we are talking differently about this permission concept. Legally yes, they had permission. But the fact that they used those dark ux patterns to request that permission should not be forgotten. Even though legally they are in the r

Does it matter if it is the first reason, or the second, or the nth if it allows surveillance on its platform because it benefits them. Even the fact that they allow it, by not doing enough to prevent it is enough reason for me to believe S

It's funny how Silicon Valley is like a fish in the water. They don't see the water, because they are in it. Technology is like putting a V8 engine on the skateboard of evolution. It accelerates the shit out of everything. These p
