  • AI app written using AI. What could go wrong?

  • CAFE is dead.

  • They haven't.

  • You are misinformed. Signal has your phone number and that's it. This has been demonstrated time and time again with legal documents.

  • It was not aggressive in the slightest. And that wasn't a fact, that was your position.

    No car companies are owned or run by ethical non-profits, because it takes an absolute fuckton of money to start them.

  • That's cool for you, I was speaking generally

  • I would need a place to do any of that first. And a whole lot of cash. You can't finance an EV conversion.

  • WTF? Is this MySpace? No thank you.

  • I really would like to do an EV conversion on an older car. Maybe a 240SX or a 350Z. Or a Honda Insight. Or even a Nissan GTT (which I only just learned existed). But you're talking $$$$ there for what is (most importantly) a relatively unsafe vehicle to drive.

  • I've already addressed your position on enforcement. If you have a rebuttal to that, please send it my way. Please do not reply to me to elaborate on why it can't be enforced.

  • Would you like to recommend another brand that has zero data connection and also isn't invested with Bezos?

  • BOOM

  • So you use cash to get a burner phone for any online purchases or sites which need them?

    Why would I need a phone for that? I just told you I use a virtual CC.

    You only carry the burner when entering large corporate store chains which are fingerprinting the devices inside?

    I use GrapheneOS, which has mitigations for that sort of tracking. But Meta isn't tracking me at the grocery store, regardless.

    You magically know every single big techs obfuscated domains for tracking cookies and block them the moment they are registered?

    I don't allow access to any cookies. As I already said, I use an ad-blocker, of course, that tracks, updates, and blocks thousands of tracking domains.

    I think you are extremely naive about how easy it is to tie this information together by a databroker

    I think you know absolutely nothing about me, what I know, and what my data protection practices are.

    Sure meta may be blocked direct access on your network but they are buying that information from another data broker and tieing directly to you based on the contact information thats been gleemed from others who shared contact information with a meta product.

    I don't think you understand. Even if someone sends Meta my phone number, they cannot associate my phone number to any other online activity because that would ALSO require my phone number, which they do not have, because I do not give it to them. Also gleaned* and tying*.

  • That would be nice. But then I'd be driving around in my stupid truck like an idiot!

    1. This is not a "legal gray area". What you're talking about would be 1000% illegal.

    2. Proton is not fucking Wells Fargo. They're not going to make billions of dollars circumventing censorship in Spain.

  • Yeah OBD is the main diagnostic port so that would certainly cause problems LOL

  • Yes, zero connectivity, relatively affordable, highly customizeable, and repair-friendly (for now). The only connectivity is through the phone app. Only downside is you have to buy a stupid truck. They could have made it a lot cheaper as a coupe.

  • What are the chances that it's just lying? Or re-enables itself periodically?

  • 😱
