This is directed at nobody in particular. I know this is a rough time of year for a lot of people and just to remind everyone to think of the person on the other end of the line. We're almost through it, the light is coming back, the Holidays (TM) are over and we made it through another horribly fucked up year. On behalf of the hexbear mods we love you all and we want to keep this place being as cool as it is.

Also want to take the time to acknowledge some of our most consistently wholesome posters like @[email protected] and @[email protected] I honestly don't know how yall keep it up and I salute you.

I could list many others but they are the two that first popped into my head and I wanted to get this post out there sooner than later.

Yeah yea It do be like that.

I saw a video recently debunking the claim that "you phone is listening to your conversations" that basically said "They don't need to know what you're saying IRL." they will legit use other ambient info to figure out who you are in regular contact with and start recommending products your friends like to you.

oh it's so much worse.

Imagine your presence on the internet as a displacement of a fluid. The algorithms can detect this "displacement of online fluid" and read the shape of it to connect accounts and profiles that have a similar "shape" or "footprint" and then tie those all together. And even if you never attached any IRL identity to that profile and only used one distinct profile to interact with for example, google, it could still be used to track you or serve ads.

"This is just like 1984!" I say as capitalism does the thing it accuses communism of doing

That's why I'm cool with my drivers license and card on my phone. 1) what good do you see yourself doing with my identity? 2) don't you already have it, dark net/CIA wizard?

Olive oil. Not even my Italian relatives argue over that, and they argue over everything.

What is this discord link like? What do they discuss on it? I just got into it a month ago.

We pretty much did some spec ops shit last couple days that won the whole war.
