People who never part with their phone and did not rip the camera and mic out of their laptop (and dumb enough not to have a proper desktop instead in the first place) deserve whatever happens to them.

People already put those amazon/google listening devices in their homes. T.V.'s also often have microphones and other data trackers. We're just data on legs now, boyo.

I think vodafone is using an AI too.

But it seems a bit odd; They to send me notifications that maximises my hatred for them.

Not surprising in the slightest.

I don't really give a fuck either. It has zero impact on my life on a daily basis, and will continue to have so.

I like the massive DATA EXPUNGED black block on the chair bit. It's probably the least creepy bit of the document, but now I'm here thinking about what my shitty chair could possibly say about me.

Joke's on them, I fidget constantly no matter what and my chair is noisy. Take those false positives, bitches.

What if the person is just alt-tabbing out of the game to fap? I mean, everyone does that, right?

Why is this censored?
Not sure. Maybe these pictures were originally taken for another purpose, maybe they reveal info about the leaker.

Or more likely, this is an attempt at blackmail. The first deadman's switch release shows they mean business and how the internet will react. The second release adds fuel to the fire and names names - unless the company pays out big. Remember, this is release 1 of 2.

I remember when I said that the only reason 2-factor authentication was being implemented was because they wanted your phone number. People didn't believe me. Look who's laughing now.

The best part about this is that they are just using a simplistic AI that finds obvious correlations of purchase rate vs. randomized ads, then tailors the ads to maximize purchase rate. No human was involved in figuring out that the menstrual cycle makes women critically weak to ads during a certain 2-day period, it was only stopped because someone recognized the pattern and shut it down to avoid inflaming the SJW crowd. But there's probably thousands of other connections that they don't even realize the AI is making. Detect that the mental state of someone indicates they are about to commit suicide? Big ad time!

Now you know why $50+ million games are shit. They spend money on this garbage instead of actually making the game good.

Of course. How can you MAXIMIZE DEM REVENUE STREAMS other than by using complex and creepy next level spyware? Make good games and get rewarded by the market? Please.

This reminds me of this TED talk: "We're building a dystopia just to make people click on ads | Zeynep Tufekci".
AIs are already exploiting many forms of mental illnesses. She also gives examples of YT algorithms pushing people to the extremes. Watch videos about vegetarian diets, and YT starts recommending videos about veganism.
