It is by design, because a wealthy independent population is harder to control by a tyrannical cabal like the EU. https://nostr.download/a0623603371380e5a4a67dcd9f47bf9b6d457cb4cd85d44052a7803e63e9385...

The thing is .. the complexity.

The big companies/orgs benefit. Because they can handle all this complexity.

The bureaucracy/complexity pushes small companies/individuals out and transfers more market share to the large players.

Zufälle gibts... Auch eine Stunde dreizehn lang, aber ein anderes Format, dass dir vielleicht besser taugt. Reaction Video zur unterirdischen Vorstellung von Nius zu dem Thema.

The LG TV story is the one to sit with. Researchers spent 500 hours and $70,000 reverse engineering a "smart" television and found it logging plaintext transcripts during standby, fingerprinting every...

Maybe it's time that people get more serious about those physical switches (mic, camera, baseband, ..) that some niche open hardware projects (for smartphones/PCs/..) offered .. but almost nobody was interested in those switches.

Physical switches are the right instinct but they only work if the manufacturer isn't the adversary — a hardware kill switch on a device that phones home for "diagnostics" through a different chip doesn't save you. The LG case is worse than a missing switch, it's a device designed to have no hones...

I think it's OK that women go work the same jobs as men.

But .. the propamedia was so evil to almost never point out that a main driver of this development is - as you write - the goal of employers to get a bigger pool of applicants and thus putting pressure on the price of labour.

Employers aren't interested in emancipation/feminism but obviously just business. (That's ok.)
