Nah I’m fine with doing this shit myself, this future is really for the laziest fucks.

I don’t have it.

Yeah! I want my internet connection run by a man baby who turns off your access if he doesn’t like you!

After watching what they did with social media you’d think everyone would give a bit of pause before swallowing another load from big tech but the people are guzzling it down, I have zero interest in being a beta tester for this dumb technology or talking to a machine.

Always wondered what happened to this guy after he gave up on stealing Pee Wee Herman’s bicycle.

They’re no Spinal Tap, for sure.

MORE pervasive? Everyone is already buried in their phones ffs.

Is it really a boom when it’s literally forced upon you unwillingly? Shoehorned into all the products you used to like?

Give us the money or we fucks you up.

You can pry my CORDED mouse and keyboard from my cold, dead hands.

When the technology really gets beyond human comprehension and people are just guessing and throwing shit at the wall (or billions and billions of dollars), I think it’s a sensible position to be a luddite.

And I haven’t touched any of it.

Agree, my child only uses dial up internet, I find that they don’t have the patience for the page loading times and forget about streaming. /s

AI-enhanced systems to comb through everything from facial recognition feeds and license plate readers to social media posts

Would be hilarious if it flagged Trump as dangerous because of all his unhinged rants but I’m sure he’s on the whitelist, which I suppose is an apt name here.

What the fuck kind of non-profit is that? And why don’t they name the officer? Oh, I guess he likes his privacy. ACAB.

Monetizing other people’s content, millionaires and billionaires love it. Yes I know there’s a TOS where you give up all rights to what you post there but meh, still shitty.

the system will build a “private and personalized knowledge base” about you.

Until it’s hacked.

There is nothing smart about being voluntary walking surveillance.

The world is going to be so boring when everyone is walking around with these things, even more oblivious and in their own worlds, with all the answers right there. No need to even speak to anyone anymore except for small talk and who likes that? I’m not going to be a walking surveillance robot which is what I really feel is the end game with this crap, zero privacy.

I’ve been using Tastedive which recommends movies, music and tv based on what you’ve watched before, I’ve found it much more reliable than reviews and scores.
