I’m uncertain about the future of computing. However, I know that the new laws are meant to control people. They can’t control bots, and they can’t control servers, because those machines aren’t owned by individuals, they can’t be identified and linked to individual real people. Therefore the solution to me seems to be posing as an unmanned machine.
Seems very new given the unfinished wiki but I’m interested. I’m a bit of a weirdo and want like 9 side buttons (Minecraft lmao) so id probably need to mod heavily. Either way, this seems like roughly what i want. Thanks for sharing :333
At least they’ll keep them on now 🤷♂️
https://www.howtogeek.com/you-can-still-buy-a-dumb-tv-but-should-you/ This article outlines the situation really well. your two options to not be spied on out of the box are to buy a terrible TV or to buy a commercial one. They dont make “dumb tvs” anymore. I wonder if theres a way to implement one’s own firmware n all that to turn a nice samsung into something more private.
this is baller i fw it
Samsung TV’s have an ai assistant: https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-redefines-ai-search-on-smart-tvs-with-a-smarter-bixby-voice-assistant

Kinda depends on your preference. A lot of people are proponents for librewolf, but it hasn’t been great for me in the past. Privacy is probably top notch, but I have zen browser a try and I’m not hating it. Could also be a move for you.
I understand this as an immediate reaction to software like this, but I have to disagree. I care about so many people… too many people. I want to keep up with them because our relationships are important to me. However, the human mind forgets stuff, even things that are important. Sure, I’ll remember someone’s birthday most of the time, but this is insurance that I won’t, it’s insurance that I won’t lose meaningful connections because I got too busy with work or passion projects.
