If they can hold your healthcare over you, you will do a lot more to make sure you don’t get fired, giving them more power over you. I guess they all assume that is more valuable than what they currently pay for health insurance.

Why don’t we just invent an entropy reversing machine?

Whistleblower recently revealed that employees at meta could (and do) just look at anyone’s chat threads. So they absolutely have a backdoor.

The title is really poorly punctuated I think. I think it’s trying to say “Trump says he’s been rejected by NATO/most allies to join mission to secure critical Strait of Hormuz”

Damn, we should let those experts who have been studying this for their entire lives that you reject the theory! They’re going to be so bummed they have to go back to the drawing board and throw out all the evidence and experiments they have done!

Even if electricity costs doubled, it would still only cost me 20 bucks a month to run my EV.

Well, I think he cares about just 1.

That is still very different than giving them access to my facial data or government id

I also wish I could just tell my ISP " I don’t have kids and have never once had anyone younger than 18 even connect to my wifi" and then they could just mark it to bypass these age checks.

Because what way could be more convenient while you are wearing 4 layers and gloves than pulling out your tiny phone and using its touchscreen?

Me and my friends use it to stream our gameplay or watch movies and stuff together. Nothing else I’ve seen really allows you to do that easily.

Searching medical records for people with diagnosed autism I assume.

I’m guessing you don’t know that vaccines generally rely on heard immunity to be effective? If a significant portion of the population doesn’t take the vaccine, even people who have the vaccine might get infected. On another note, immuno compromised people might have legitimate reasons for not getting the vaccine, and rely on that same herd immunity.

They’ve released less than 1% of the files. Still plenty of things we have yet to see.
