Fucking Peter literally creating the very monster he claims to hate.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Fucking never. Never ever. I’d sooner cut myself off from all technology and live in the woods than willingly give those creepy fucks my middle goddamn name. There is absolutely nothing good that will come from this company. The people at that company literally fucking movie villains. It’s fucking crazy that absolutely anyone works with them, let alone world governments.
These large scale surveillance companies like Palantir, like Flock, they shouldn’t exist. They should be outlawed. Our government needs probable cause and a warrant to surveil a suspect. If a normal civilian followed you around and filmed you, kept track of you at all times, they’d be arrested for stalking. But for some reason private companies can just watch every man, woman, and child in public and online, catalog all our movements, where we went, how we went there, who was with us, track what we do, what we read, who we know, how we spend our time, what we say, etc., and then permanently log all of that, use it to form dociers on us, predict our behaviors, or desires, ways to manipulate us, and then turn around and sell that data to governments, other companies and private parties. How the fuck is that legal.
Why in the fuck would you ever allow a private, profit-driven company to have that kind of power over your nation, let alone reward it with federal dollars, long term contracts and access to our law enforcement and military data and systems?
Worse, the founders and CEO are unhinged wannabe dictators trying to form their own sovereign techno-states. They’re not even secretive about that. And our goverment is fucking funding these nuts and giving them every detail of the lives of our citizenry, our goverment officials, our military… how fucking stupid do we have to be, guys? I wish I could say it’s just Trump but it’s not. It’s mind boggling.
I’m here because of this. 10 year old Reddit account deleted, app deleted, done over and out.
It’s a great way to kill those products. That’s maybe the only upside.
I’m permaband from Reddit but I miss some local subs. I hope this encourages people to move away to something else.
You are not alone.
Unfortunately probably a lot fewer will move than we expect. People seem capable of accepting all sorts of shittification in favour of actively changing their platform. Just look at how many still uses twitter, despite its literal nazification.
how did you get permabanned?
Someone posted they wished Trump would die (basically). I said nah, let him stroke out and suffer.
That was like my last strike. Before I had said stuff like Miller is a nazi and stuff(prove me wrong Reddit!). People would report those as threatening harm and I don’t think the Reddit goons really care so yeah…
I was just permabanned on 3 accounts for anti-ice/trump/pedo comments. 2 existing accounts were 10 years old. One was pretty much just for NSFW/NSFL stuff and I rarely commented on anything with.
One new one I made afterwards was permabanned within 5 hours for ban evasion.
Somehow I forgot I’d made one with “sign in with Apple” a while back and it was on my iPad. That account still works fine.
It’s weird.
All of my accounts got permabanned on Reddit for calling someone “A piece of fucking human garbage” for saying that only vulnerable and old people died from Covid and how Covid wasn’t a big deal. I lost friends in their 20s to it.
Apparently what I said was inciting hatred and violence. But saying a deadly pandemic that killed millions “wasn’t a big deal”, and “Your friends were probably going to die anyway” is perfectly okay to Reddit Admins.
Sorry if you did end up reading the comment I deleted. I misread your comment and thought you were denying COVID. I’m over here flighting off the flu (even though I got flu shot) and not thinking clearly.
I once got a sub ban for speaking the truth about Lauren Bobert. Called her a “dumb cunt”, which is 100% true.
Permabanned from the sub.
All good. Thanks for the correction I appreciate it. Yeah I was defending people who died and buddy was saying that only vulnerable or old people were dying so it’s “not a big deal”.
I knew people who died who were healthy and young. The entire idea that anyone dying from a global pandemic is “not a big deal, they would die anyway” can eat the biggest bag of dicks.
Apparently reddit disagrees.
Yep! Reddit is a lost cause, unfortunately I’m seeing some of the same BS around here now that I’m more active
deleted by creator
I called Clarence Thomas a house n*****
You can always come back from the dead just to torment your dictators.
That honestly isn’t possible. I have several accounts perma banned and I just make new ones. VMs circumvent hardware ID mapping, VPNs circumvent IP banning. Until they require phone numbers to create accounts circumventing their bans is childs play.
If I have to go through any of that it really isn’t worth it.
How are you still here then?
I’m not.
lol jeez this Voyager app looks very much like Hydra Reddit app and I am very recently permabanned from Reddit for anti Trump/ICE/Pedo comments. I have the flu and am not thinking clearly about what app I was using.
Literally Spez right now…
(I’d post the uncensored image but IIRC Lemmy World is German-based and have strict laws against Nazi iconography)
He’s wilfully given the data of users who have criticized Trump and ICE, AND he looks like a spitting image of Tintin…
“Compelled” *evil shojo laughing all the way to the delete button"
Peter fucking thiel has too much money and is backing everything, for example PayPal and stripe that are processing 80% of e-commerce payments
My kid wants to be verified on Roblox sooooooo bad so he can defend himself against trolls. It’s actually been a good lesson in ignoring those idiots like water off a ducks back.
when are they rolling that shit out on AI-slop-CSAM-central aka twitter?
I have not experienced such on Reddit myself, but I am diversifying my use, just in case.
This place looks nice so I’ve created an account and set up a new bookmark.
Welcome!
What is the lemmy equivalent for discord?
Fluxer.app
Nothing so far, there is Stoat, Roomy and Root, iirc there are others but I do not recall them atm.
That is so strange.
Well anyways, lemmy seems fine
compelled to use
I gotta say, a lot of the compulsion seems to be around “adult content” which is fairly easy to avoid in most cases.
I would be more interested in how these rules tend to target LGBTQ+ groups for censorship than how they slap a “teenagers” tag on anyone who isn’t feeding them biometric data. This feels like another edition of “straight is normal, gay is sex” Christian orthodoxy being codified into the digital landscape.
Theil should be removed from any authoritative seats he may hold, and then be stripped of his wealth to stop him buying our elected officials
