Google updated it's privacy policy which now allows scraping for all public data to train it's AI products. A logical step but still extremely concerning.

If this doesn't put you off threads, it's going to be tough for people to feel sympathy for the future you find yourself in. Take a pen and scrub out the word naĂŻve if you still have a printed dictionary.

The and all in it would be such a fantastical wonderful place if everyone wasn't trying to make money. For many people the only time they spend on the internet is to exploit it for capital gain, not because they want to share information with others. Be fooled of you must. I never have been and don't intend to start. People underestimate* just how many others want their money. Nothing else.

@davidnason @patrick_h_lauke @keul thank you. I REALLY would love to try it!

@JonnyT @feditips I like to see if the developer has any interest in my info or not.

I can’t tell that the link doesn’t provide that information.

Finally, if an app doesn’t provide a , then they don’t have one. If they don’t have a privacy policy, then I don’t want to use the app anyway.

Either way, the developer isn’t providing what I want or need. That means either way they don’t get my

Any further discussion at this point is moot.

You’re 💯right!

But you are completely missing the most important thing- accessibility.

The screen reader doesn’t function well with poorly implemented JavaScript, man.

AS A DEV, !

I’ll condense it- if it interferes with my ability to use the internet, it’s useless

Besides, really should be a thing. How hard is it to embed a document or just provide it text-based version of a ?

@feditips I would so love to try the , but their and both require enabled.

To bad. I’d have been happy to pay for something I could trust, and I’m happy to point out when a dev tells you one thing about privacy in the and something else on their website.

I’ve done it here before and I’ve got nothing to lose by pointing it out

@gruff these companies only have as much power as people give them

doesn’t make anything from me- no apps, VPN, browser in privacy mode only, and a big middle finger 🖕 to anything affiliated with Facebook, , , etc.

Yes, I have issues, but before I did I had a career in research & security, with a very long background in tech

I’m still very good at finding my way around a . It’s really not that hard

I wish more people would 😕

People don’t bother reading anybody’s anymore. and writers love to the latest , but seldom with a mention about the policies.

That’s just so

They spell out how they use . I mean they aren’t trying to hide it because nobody reads the stuff.
