all avoidable. except for cold/heat

awkward moment when privacy software has some of their docs on google slides.

this service claims:

"Ad based search engines make almost $300 a year off their users.

Google generated $76 billion in US ad revenue in 2023. Google had 274 million unique visitors in the US as of February 2023.

To estimate the revenue per user, we can divide the 2023 US ad revenue by the 2023 number of users: $76 billion / 274 million = $277 revenue per user in the US or $23 USD per month, on average! That means there is someone, somewhere, a third party and a complete stranger, an advertiser, paying $23 per month for your searches."

enshittification.

my theory is that they are pushing for more expensive upgrades like fiber.

google should not be allowed anywhere in healthcare. OR strict restrictions and full tansparency of the company should be required.

"New data published by Canadian broadband management company Sandvine reveals that cloud storage, YouTube, and other apps have taken over. "

devils advocate:

  • branches would fall in the tracks
  • wild animals might populate and then get harmed.

i think the concept of "donation" is a relevant piece of this puzzle.

not the onion

u could also try making small valid changes to detail over time until the posted content is unrecognizable and probably** false.
eg: i drive a red car
i drive a blue car
i drive a blue truck
i dont drive anything

those are all possibly true. but alot of them are incorrect.

Be careful that unlimited ( more acurately labeled via the "high speed data" limit) is a widely used practice of false advertising.
Check the throttle speed to see what happens after you run out of data.

excessively trivial things

i have heard it suggested that it could be national goverment who did this. so that means it could be israel, america, or china, etc .
i view this as potentially very well funded governments vs ordinary people. we never stood a chance.

Google sucks

"At Zerodha, many million users login and use our financial platforms every day. Over the recent months, on an average day, 1.5+ million users have been executing stock and derivative transactions. On a volatile day, this number could easily double. After a trading session concludes and all the number-crunching, tallying, and “backoffice” operations are completed—with file dumps received from stock exchanges and other market infrastructure institutions—stock brokers e-mail a digitally signed PDF report called the contract note to every user who transacted on that particular day."

some apartments have an clause to break the lease early. others may only allow for a friend or family to enter your apt.

the i3/sway scratchpad feature is handy. extra esp at beginner stage.

gemini search engines are not so bad for likeminded folks with likeminded topics.
ex: 12 results!
vs searching windows how to pay for windows. 0 results. srry. gemini is small.

even if politicians change their tune and seem to want to be more privacy conscious..
we should hold their feet to the fire.
