I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they’re on a whitelist. No notifications from this particular system app (that can’t be disabled) until recently when it started making internet connection requests to google servers. Does anyone know when this became a thing?
We’re the courts not enough control for creditors? Since when are they allowed to lock you out of your purchased property without a court order?
I don’t even live in the US, so what the actual fuck?
Then those people are not citing the experiment properly because the whole point about it is NOT that it’s unavoidable. The experiment goes on an the threat is actually removed YET animals, either the same or new ones who get in touch with the others who were subject to the threat, keep on not trying. They LEARNED to become helpless despite the situation being objectively solvable.
ok but the thing here is that this is all still new. Owning nothing doesn’t exist yet.
Corpos would like for us to own nothing, or at the very least it seems like everything is moving that direction. I.E. we’re being put in the cage.
Exactly the kind of learned helplessness that I’m fighting against. Sure a LOT of content is now only streamed and behind DRM … but it is NOT all content. In fact maybe even quality content exist precisely outside such platform. Even if it’s less than 50%, heck even if it’s 1%, it might be enough. The whole of my argument is precisely that making shortcuts like “everything” are supporting the narrative that no alternatives exist, while it is simply not true. This is a great example of the problem. Please do not spread such ideas because that’s doing the job of the “Corpos” you seem to want to criticize.
yeah no, i fundamentally disagree with you though. Your argument essentially seems to boil down into “but actually, it’s not as bad as you think it is” which is a really fucking weird point to hold when it comes to this kind of stuff. That or you’re ignoring how bad it is, because of something else, which you seem to be more focused on.
I still don’t see what the point of this is. This is basically the equivalent of giving someone shit for calling out a racist because “well actually, thats what racists want, they want their shit to be spread”
