My panties just dropped
Edit: I’m not a girl, just a rust dev
I hate phones so much.
Does all that and still used WhatsApp lol
I still haven’t found a way to make my parents use Signal, so either I stop communicating with them (which is tempting sometimes) or have this compromise
I just don’t communicate with anyone that insists on using products that have user agreements I don’t agree with. The amount of bullshit user agreements are getting overloaded with makes them dangerous legal contracts that can have serious implications on your rights. Just ask the family whose daughter died at a Disney theme park and when they tried to sue Disney tried to force them to arbitration because their son had tried Disney+
Well evidently you’re not in charge of anyone’s healthcare: when you have a parent that has to be taken care of, you have to compromise if they’re not able to adapt
I’d rather use SMS than sign my rights over to Meta. They can use that if they can use facebook or whatsapp.
You cannot attach medical prescriptions to SMS
Wow. In Canada you cannot get prescription renewals any other way
If they’re serious about talking to you, they’ll budge. Call their bluff.
It’s honestly such a pain in the ass to say no to everything Google shoves down your throat these days. And even after you say no it will remind you every so many days just in case you changed your mind after the 15th time you said no. Android used to be the “cool” phone but nowadays if you don’t install your own custom ROM it’s basically just Apple with extra steps
The number of services that have adopted dark patterns is too much.
It’s no longer “No” with a checkmark that says “Don’t ask me again” to only “Not now” with the implied consent that they can ask you again later.
Dropbox asks me every fucking time I use the browser.
NewRelic asks me every fucking day.
Amazon asks me every fucking order.
… and then hope that you don’t get hardware issue warranty claim denied because of the software.
Buys a $1000 modern communication device
Disables all ways for it to communicate or use its modern services
Just buy a Nokia dumb phone and call it a day.
This, so fucking much that I have it automated.
And you forgot the most important part, firewalling every app off with before connecting to the first network.
