@phire What's most baffling to me is that this is even remotely unexpected to anyone whatsoever.
At this point the *only* sensible expectation is that the fascist tech giants will pull *every* *single* *bit* of nasty business they can get away with.
Things are gonna start getting better when people at large accept the fact that the billionaires are our *enemy* and the institutions we put in place to keep them in check have failed.
It's up to all of us to defend ourselves.
@renardboy @phire internet connected camera -> someone is looking at it. there's no other reasonable expectation.

If they bought a pair of smart glasses from Meta, Amazon, Google, or Microsoft in 2026, they should have absolutely expected this. I have no sympathy. -

When I started working at Meta and realized how bad the company really is, I began warning friends, family, and even total strangers who would listen. It’s that serious.

If you start asking questions, you are gone.”
Who leads a team like that and thinks "i'm doing a good job!"
like damn. grow up!
