Creating a positive mental landscape, based on action, something to strive for, rather than visions of impeding doom., is an essential first step.
When I’m in this situation I use a fresh (disposable) profile, it’s usually third party cookies or trackers.
``Trees work well, are beautiful and require little maintenance, do that.
Did a little bit of digging on that one, before being bought by Bayer, the Cutter biological division was responsible for another pharmaceutical disaster. They accidentally (?) sold 120 000 doses of polio vaccines containing the live polio virus.
Intellectual property is intellectual theft.
Very skeptical of that one.
They’ve been trying to target amyloid for more than a decade, and it’s the first time I hear of it actually working.
The treatment seem to have huge side effects (brain bleeding and swelling) and lead to patient death during the study.
Elly Lilly is also know for marketing zyprexa as a treatment for dementia (despite inefficacy and increased risk of death). Which is IMO criminal, at best unethical. I’m not inclined to trust them at all.
I hope I’m wrong and it works. Alzheimer is a terrible way to go.
Don’t screen shot then, post the text. Or a txt. I think that conversation should be interesting.
Thanks for taking the time to answer, I’ll check the thread.
Yeah I switched from trust to paranoia, it seems, hopefully I’ll settle on a middle ground.
Honestly I don’t think I’m technically adept enough to check this myself. I was following firefox privacy guides, and the (much more competent) people writing them were puzzled about those two.
Of course it’s not necessarily malicious, but it has became hard to be trusting.
In the end I kind of just gave up on privacy, I take mitigation measures as a symbolic gesture, but still assume someone’s watching over my shoulder whatever I do online. Not a good feeling to be honest.
How would I check exactly what data firefox is sending home?
firefox.settings.services.mozilla.com
content-signature-2.cdn.mozilla.net
There are unexpected connections to these two domains that cannot be disabled using firefox options.
Easily? How?
AFAIK no matter what you do, firefox still calls home sometimes.
From what I can tell, the idea is to make you feel like, with a little bit of effort, the privacy thing would be achievable,
but when you actually try, it’s a whole different ordeal.
Meta will face daily fines of €89,500 if it doesn’t comply with the order.
Bet they can write it off as expenses.
We were making a big fuss back then. We also made a big fuss about Gitmo.
Nobody cared.
High quality sarcasm.
Unethical does not even begin to cut it. It’s firmly in horrifying territory for me.
If a construction company taxidermied their dead workers into animatronics and used those unholy puppets to perform the same job, it wouldn’t shock me more.
It’s just a specific form of larping after all.
twitter screenshot isn’t a meme tho
Can they also forbid facebook from collecting and selling (or renting) user data?
Because otherwise it won’t change much.
