A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Right you are. Right you are. I don't have a Facebook account or have the app installed on my phone, yet they are attempting to track data from my camera system app.

Highly recommend DuckDuckGo browser or RethinkDNS for everyone reading this (if you are on Android).

Edit: Also PiHole, though it is a bit more complicated to set up.

Pi-hole, Ghostery, Orion browser, Kagi. This is the way.
