If the house across the street installs #AmazonRing or #Google #Nest in a way that surveils my house, it will be an act of war.

Have any U.S. cities legislated against a neighbor installing #Amazon #Ring such that it surveils the neighbor across the street?

A #Belgian bank decides to force all customers to:

* buy an #iPhone or #Android
* subscribe to GSM svc
* give the ph# to Apple or Google
* tell #Apple or #Google where they bank (by downloading the app)
* install & execute proprietary #nonfreesoftware

Money is trapped in the accounts- held hostage until customers take the above steps.

Why is no one talking about this? #Aion (#MontePaschi) forces ppl into #surveillanceCapitalism w/Google/Apple patronage & no one seems to notice.

@kensanata @Gargron @Twentyfivebux I suppose I should also say how to avoid #CloudFlare #Mastodon nodes. Run this command to find CloudFlare-free Mastodon nodes: comm -13 <(torsocks curl https://codeberg.org/crimeflare/cloudflare-tor/raw/branch/master/tool/example.mdn_basedom_list.txt | sort) <(torsocks lynx -dump -nolist https://instances.social/list/old | awk '/%/{print $3}' | sort)

Just skip the threat & move straight to #boycott #Microsoft #github. There's much more evil than just #ICE to consider:

https://github.com/yacy/yacy_search_server/issues/314

To arm the Israeli military w/ #facialrecognition to use against the #Palestinians they oppress is pretty evil.

A sensible replacement amid the #deleteGithub movement is @codeberg

@Br0m3x #DuckDuckGo has a #privacy abuser for CEO (who previously founded a Names DB, a svc to get naive ppl to leak the contact info of their friends). #DDG also feeds privacy abusers #Verizon, #Yahoo & #microsoft. DDG was also caught violating their own privacy policy.

@eff Note that by accepting #PayPal, EFF is subjecting donors to information sharing with 600+ companies (see Bruce Schneiers blog)

@mkb

Instead of supporting #Reddit (a #centralized #corrupt power abuser w/#censorship shenanigans), who then empowers #Amazon (thus promoting #facialrecognition, #climatedenial, & #sweatshops), it's more sensible (and ethical) to direct users to #Lemmy:

Amnesty International: "Israel has a history of carrying out serious violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza, including war crimes, with impunity and displaying a shocking disregard for Palestinian lives.

Ok #Revolut, I think we are done here, dropping app support for rooted ROMs is one thing (even though no other way to access your account) but selling our data with only opt out via support chat and latest app ver (can't use anyway), is another.
