I am of course referring to mainstream media that reaches the plebs. The ones who don’t exist terminally online and consume their information through all the small media outlets that are prolific here. People who watch NBC, CBS, and ABC and who regularly consume Fox News and CNN as their primary news source. Those are the people that are getting a 24/7 fire hose of misinformation about her.

171·3 days agoKnowledgeable and smart are not the same thing. These two are very knowledgeable about the systems they worked on and database manipulation, believe it or not these are not hard skills to learn. But they were incredibly dumb regardless given every single action they took at every point in their lives.

Technology@lemmy.world•Extortion Using Smart Glasses Is a Thing NowEnglish
3·7 days agoPOV porn exists, you could just actually work out an agreement with a strip club to basically rent it out to do a shoot one day, if you wanted to end up with pretty much the same kind of video, except everyone involved actually signed up for it.
But that’s kind of the point. They want people who didn’t “sign up for it”. That’s part of the allure for these people. And for the viewer side as well. I have literally watched people angrily debate that a video depicting such things was “faked” and that counted as a negative for the people who watch those. I honestly don’t get what the difference is between a person who’s getting a paycheck and somebody who’s being stalked and fucked with for somebody who’s watching that sort of content. But sadly they exist in far too large numbers.

6·7 days agoThat’s because it’s not about the nudity or the sexual gratification. It’s about humiliating another person. It gives certain people a sense of power and they find that euphoric. And for those who watch these videos, well voyeurism is a thing.

5·7 days agoAre you sure you’d be able to tell? These people are actively looking for ways to disguise these things so that you can’t tell that they’re wearing them.

22·7 days agoThe point is that she didn’t even know she was being recorded. That’s why this story is all about the smart glasses being used to covertly record people.

4·10 days agoYeah I love how the article keeps dancing around that fact. It’s like they’re absolutely terrified to actually put it into words.
And, quite frankly, they should be. The collapse there setting up right now could very well eclipse the subprime mortgage collapse of 2008.

171·14 days agoWow, that guy is an absolute putz. Like, postmarketOS literally tells you that their shit is not ready for prime time and to be ready for it to be a little bit wonky right now. And this guy is acting like they’re advertising it as it is ready for Freddy and it’s just garbage or something. Not to mention the way he installed it was just stupid. My 8-year-old niece could do this better than he did.
I think I’ll find a video made by somebody more competent.

21·18 days agoWon’t succeed in removing him from office and “pointless” are not the same thing.
A referendum on his abhorrent behavior as president is absolutely called for. And a spotlight on the complicity of the entire Republican party is worth making hay out of. Jefferies is a spineless jellyfish who should be primaried out of political existence.

26·18 days agoYeah, that’s called a wealth tax or marginal tax rate. And we need that too. Only problem is that over half of America has been thoroughly brainwashed into believing that a wealth tax would “ruin the economy” because multiple conservative think tanks funded by billionaires has spent the last 4 decades propagandizing that belief into them.

26·26 days agoNot to mention that someone’s going to come out with a jailbreak option for every 3D printer within a couple of weeks of this being implemented at a manufacturing scale.
Fighting a cease and desist takes money. Lots of it. Especially when the company you’re fighting is making billions of dollars on their product. And the guy who created the fork doesn’t have that kind of dough. So he opted to not fight it.
Therefore it is left up to others fight those battles.
