GM 👋

Spent first evening installing some apps and tinkering with #grapheneOS. If I'm a bit grumpy today, please blame it on my lack of sleeping time last night 😅

"Every time we go online to enjoy the services of these algorithms, [..] we must submit to a business model based on the harvesting of our data, the tracking of our activity the invisible curating of our content. [..] the algorithm goes into the business of selling things to us while selling our attention to others. At that point something more profound kicks in which gives the algorithm's owners immense power-to predict our behaviour, to guide our preferences, to influence our decisions, to change our minds, to thereby reduce us yo their unpaid servants, whose job is to provide our information, our attention, our identity and above all the patterns of behaviour that train their algorithms."

Wondering how fast the earth surface (at the latitude where I live) rotates...🤔 1,000 kph is not too shabby! #rabbithole

Good (it's more wishful thinking) morning. #winterIsComing
