Note however, that psychotropics drugs are best taken under medical instruction and are most effective in the long run if you're also in psychotherapy.
Edit: Wtf did my app just do
There are a lot of different species which serve as pollinators besides bees. Afaik, some are more specialised into specific flowers/plants than others and without them, these plants wouldn't be able to reproduce. (Yucca moths for example.)
It was already ruled that they failed to sufficiently disclose which information was used and how.
This is not evidence that they’re using your microphone, and you know it’s not.
I didn't claim it to be evidence for that.
somehow bypassing Google and Apple’s mic usage notifications
Unless some form of hardware notification is hardwired into the device, which indicates cam or mic usage, I'm on the rather paranoid side regarding software notifications. Software is usually much easier to break. I'm leaning a lot out of the window now, as I don't know how secure those notifications are implemented. However, even then there is reason for concern, given that facebook had / has questionable deals with device manufacturers. If they were willing to share personal data with device manufacturers, there is reason to suspect this went or can go the other way around as well.
I don’t know why you keep coming back to trust. [...] That’s not the point.
It is mine. Even though there is no evidence for a surveillance using device microphones itself yet and it could be surprising if they were able to, given the history of facebook, they participated in a lot of rather surprising shit.
Aye. Facebook has been proven to be shady af over and over again.
it wasn’t in secret
Did I misread something? It even says in the title of the linked article, that it was a "secret project".
The evidence is: among other things, facebook has repeatedly violated user's privacy. It would be no surprise if they would also monitor conversations via the microphone. Sure, currently there seems to be no evidence for that. But I wouldn't be so naive to just trust them on that.
Yes. Just another malicious thing facebook does. Surely, they are totally trustworthy in all other regards. /s
Security researchers can and probably have tested for this and found no clear, verifiable evidence, otherwise we would have known.
Facebook snooped on users’ Snapchat traffic in secret project, documents reveal
And it is!
Insufficiently.
Like here in Europe.
It must be a very different kind of Europe than the one I live in.
I live in Germany and regularly encounter such troubles to find ecologically optimal products. Most of the time because there aren't any available for me. Then there is a huge lack of transparency and sometimes of course the price. Although the latter is not really problematic for me, it is for a lot of other people. Those products, which are environmentally detrimental, are usually much cheaper than the ecologically better ones. You are being financially punished for choosing the better alternatives.
"free range" eggs
Despite the fact that a non-plant based diet is worse than a plant-based one in terms of ecological impact, the industry has been subject to a lot of critique due to insufficient regulations towards the treatment of egg-laying hens. Not only that, but also controls are often not conducted, even though it says so on paper.
The problem here is not Bezos, it's YOU
Even if we neglect the ecological irresponsible business practises conducted by Bezos & friends, when it comes to individual ecological impact, wealthy people are usually causing a multitude of the damage which is caused by not-that-wealthy individuals. It seems to be a problem inherent to the lifesytle.
Most smaller delivery vehicles here in the UK are fully electric.
That's cool. However, there is more to electric vehicles which must be considered when we think about ecological impact. (Lifetime, resources, production, etc..) Even if that's given, this alone doesn't solve the climate crisis. Although it certainly seems to be a nice step in the right direction.
Regarding the remaining list: that's surely nice to hear. Still, there are still a plethora of unsolved problems. Even in your country.
And you don't.
How about you don't generalise a whole population?
Instead you ban contraception and abortions.
You must have mistaken me with someone from another country. It might help to be less prejudiced.
