Reading newspaper reports about Coles and Woolworths crying victim of shop lifting after making record profits in the billion$ is bullshit. Not only do ordinary people suffer the consequences of high inflation, we get our every habit #surveilled while we are forced to buy food from a duopoly who jack up their margins in response.

2.24.23 I continue to be #surveilled, #stalked, #tortured, slandered, pathologized, criminalized. All correspondence blocked, communications blocked, very little access to the internet, no freedom of movement. I am totally & fully disabled from serving #america. Income cut off, no access to my own inheritances, property, asset, credentials, investments, aid, relief, healthcare, representation, justice. I have committed no #crime. This has gone on all my #life @icij @hrw #unwomen #unitednations

Perhaps one of the most intriguing aspects of the Fediverse is the ability to set up your own server, to be in control of your social media presence and content. But on the other hand, isn't this conceptually similar to blogs and RSS, which eventually lost out to the large platforms?

The problems at Intel have been well known for a while now, but the latest Unhedged newsletter sums up just how badly they are affected. The most unexpected data point for me is that "eternal second" AMD now has a bigger market cap than Intel!

StanChart is a perennial takeover target, owing to a structural constraint: it generates revenue mostly in Asia and Africa, but is a UK-regulated bank, which puts it at a competitive disadvantage compared to domestic lenders.
However, actually taking it over would involve dealing with hugely disparate regulatory frameworks across StanChart's markets, and so in practice a deal is unlikely to happen...

The #streamingServices (forced) trend is widely documented as wasteful for #environment and favours entities with large capital to serve such easily from many #datacenter locations. See our recent toot. Also, because they reject #internetAnonymisers the household is trivially #surveilled and thus easily inflenced/led by #advertisers and/or #repressive forces. Includes being targetted for not streaming enough, or switching off the stream at the "wrong" time, etc.

Officers need not physically possess the #phones being #surveilled as cell carriers turn over highly detailed call logs, #GPS and other data without any #warrant thanks to 28 CFR Part 23 -- at a very low bar of “reasonable suspicion.” https://law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/28/part-23

I'm not an #anarchist. I believe society benefits from some structure, i'd like it to be more #fair and #equal for sure, but i don't believe in dismantling everything just because some things we've not gotten right yet.
I'm not anti #capitalism. I don't care for being #data mined, #surveilled for targeted #advertising, but just like all of you i too am a #consumer, albeit a fairly minimal one in many ways.
I find fault in how overboard it all has become and how our rights are diminished.

@krnlkule I don't believe that a level of anonymity is detrimental to the health of society, in fact i feel the exact opposite.
I am a strong advocate for people not being #tracked, not being #surveilled if they can help it so they are not subject to having their #data kept, used against them or improperly collected, stored and ending up public whenever a #databreach happens.
These are things everyone should consider, anonymity might not work for all, but it's a great solution to this.
