deviltoob Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) Is there still a difference between corporate spying and government spying? The former I’m not a huge fan of, I don’t use Facebook, google or any product of theirs whatsoever, but know Microsoft probably aren’t much better. But at least you can opt out, don’t use all that crap and pay cash or whatever, it’s still a choice. Government spying, however, you can’t escape that. There’s a reason Assange is a dead man walking.

The biggest irony is they dragged Zuckerberg in front of congress to explain data privacy issues when it's known from Edward Snowden that the NSA records everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThirdDrawerDown Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Amazon is briefing US police officers on how to obtain footage from Ring security cameras that householders have installed, without serving warrants on householders. By asking the householders, or by asking Amazon directly because they have the footage anyway through the Internet of Things functionality.

BugPowderDust Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 As if Wi-Fi performance isn’t bad enough with multiple networks fighting over the same channels in metro areas. I look forward to the first person jumping off a Sidewalk network into a corporate network using this attack vector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
