Yeah it’s not the Porn companies I’m worried about, it’s the companies the porn companies use to store the data. Even if they don’t leak it, someone can will break in, either a bad actor or the government themselves because, let’s be frank, having a list of porn users and what porn they watch is going to be irresistible if they want to spark a scandal based around, say, rival politicians or activists.

I trusted my government to protect my info, and now I have LifeLock for life because of several breaches on their part. If data is stored, it is virtually certain some portion of it will get leaked.

This is interesting. This incident resulted in the Video Privacy Protection Act. I wonder if you could apply this to streaming providers who sell your watch history to advertisers.

that this is not enough of a dipshit statement to exclude him from everybody’s good books is… like, what’s the point

if you cannot plainly see that this is the most retarded suggestion it is possible to make under capitalism, it can only be because you have paid attention to no world event since like 1750

the plastics recycling lie (it’s just been shown that plastics recycling does not work, can not work, and that the oil companies have known this, lied about it, and then made money selling additional recycling-related products since like the 70s) is so recent and yet still walks out there, with his bare face hanging out, and says this shit

I bet he knows about the very high leak probability, for him it’s just another tool to subdue people (he’d love to have the leak himself to leverage power).

I’ve never heard that plastic recycling straight up doesnt work but it sounds like something the oil companies would do. Do you have a link to a documentary or something about that matter?

Basically it costs too much to recycle most plastic. It’s just so much cheaper to sell it to impoverished countries that will either burn it or dump it somewhere.
