Q-anon is probably the biggest one.

Check out the HBO documentary ‘Q: Into the Storm’.

Hey! It’s not that simple! There’s feces too.

You just made me realize how much I’d love to live in a country where there was no such thing as a “normal shooting”.

Gun culture in America is absolutely fucked.

If you trust them, which it seems like you do, to not sell your information for advertising purposes then maybe thats true.

They’re still sharing your personal information with others. Maybe you trust Google to not use the information stored in your drive for ads or to sell you shit but do you then also implicitly trust every corporation that that give that data to? To you then also trust those companies to always handle and treat your personal information with the respect it deserves for all time?

Here’s a relevant quote from their privacy policy:

We provide personal information to our affiliates and other trusted businesses or persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. For example, we use service providers to help operate our data centers, deliver our products and services, improve our internal business processes, and offer additional support to customers and users.

If you’re OK with Google using your personal information to sell you adds or with then selling your personal information directly, then it’s a fine option.

Again, i’s a privacy issue. Some people are OK with giving up privacy for convenience, and that’s fine.

Lack of privacy is a huge reason. If you’re OK with Google scanning all of your photos to sell you adds and build their AI then it’s a fine option.

Car manufacturers can make more money per vehicle on large trucks. So I’m curious what influence their lobiests had on this.

Monero has mechanisms for validating supply:

If you’re going to repeat this argument ad nauseam then at least don’t do it in a misleading absolutist way.

Monero, if that’s what you’re referring to, has mechanisms for auditing supply:

Some nonprofit organizations are corporations and have pretty shitty practices:

The Morman church is another US ‘non-profit organization’ yet somehow hordes billions.

Trusting blindly without doing research because something is presented as a non-profit is a good way to be taken for a fool and separated from your money.

When signal made their own cryptocurrency which they entirely premined was a huge red flag. Dropping SMS support was an annoyance that broke the camels back.

That’s what they told me when gave then feedback through their website.

There’s no free lunch and corporations aren’t the most trustworthy source of information though so maybe it was about cost.

Fr. Fuck signal for removing SMS support

Anyone else remember when the reddit hive mind mis-identified the Boston bomber?

Great description!

Some people live in countries where some of those things are illegal. Another example of this is banned books. I can pay for entry into a private torrent tracker through a VPN to access books banned in my country.

If you need 0 connections between the cash in your bank account and what you buy online then you need something like Monero.
