yeah I feel that more than ever with the US entities and am in the US. Regardless of all the privacy and corruption that is in open season now, this is going to also lead to a massive enshitification of US companies because of the ever increasing monopolies and lack of competition

thank you, i had a feeling there was some privacy issues with the openness of the network. I always thought reddit would do good to have multiple profiles allowed to a main account, so if you wanted to shitpost, or if you wanted to wankbank it, or discuss Friedman economics you would have profile to do that with. Of course big reddit would admin all that, but it would reduce in theory all the new accounts constantly being made alongside the bot accounts and reduce some of the throw away nature of accounts that accrue to much data over time thru the nature of commenting
i think the image was used to illustrate the point of being on a spectrum of differences and as a proper shit post follow up to a well thought out and carefully worded comment. Saw a pretty good tedtalk on this recently :24 is where it gets into it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
what runs the redlib? is that like cloudflare running a library and using their servers like for a handful of application, or is it a function of private coffee or is this some running on something else.
Private coffee looks like its own service and I guess one of those is hosting redlib, however it has a bunch of other items on it, is private coffee some form of extension of the lemmy or fediverse or whatever this all is i am trying to wrap my head around since switch from reddit.
Sorry, like i am having a hard time with it, similar to when blockchain first got introduced, i didnt quite get it for some time
on top of that, amazon and google this past week said that their devices would now listen all the time by default and send that data to hq. Now if you are just discussing something it will be added to your advertising profiles. I bet a bunch of cars and other benign objects are doing similar things.
gpt and low cost cameras now give companies the ability to monitor you 365 while on their property if they want to. Discussing something in line at the grocery store, llm note take takes that, time stamps it with your order and ties it to you profile. Doing a drug deal at your local circle K and dont by anything, cameras catch you license plate and suddenly you are getting amazon ads for the types of rubber bands your customers prefer you use on their 8balls
