First 7 words:

Bill Gates just dropped a wild prediction

In other words: Insider trading.

Have you ever though about why millionaires suddenly start predicting stuff? Because they just made a multi million investment and they are looking for such trashy magazines to push their agenda.

So thanks, but no, I won’t get hyped over some words.

It does not.

You can install a Sandboxed Version of it, but not more

Please tell me, where I can enable Seedvault or another local backup service without having to root my phone first or use apps like shiziku.

YES, I HAVE to use Murena services in order to back up my /e/ is phone without compromising security via root or shizuku. Prove me wrong, and send me a fucking video about it.

You are back with your Spam

NOT on by default

This is a Private OS. They should not have this integration, since there are more than enough FOSS alternatives.

for paying customers only

Dosent change my point.

tries to anonymize the data

Tries. Tries. Tries.

They claim to be private. They incorporate a non private Service even though there are valid alternatives. Thats where this discussion starts and ends.

privacy-first company

My

wet

asshole

is a Privacy first company.

They are worse then Linaege. Linaege at least supports local system backups. With /e/, you have to use their own unencrypted servers.

(Also btw they support Phones with not anymore updated firmware, which partially allows script kiddies with a flipper zero to exploit your chipset)

I can tattoo „privacy first” on the inside of my asscheek. Dosent mean it actually means anything.

Like I said, /e/ is not at all better than LinaegeOS, but instead takes the OK LinaegeOS, adds their own insecure services, removes everything that could be more secure, and misrepresents what is essentially a LinaegeOS Flavor as

• uLtRa gIgA sEcUrEeweeeeeee!!!;111! V. 1211 b !!!

So this kill switch will auto delete all the telemetry /e/ collects by default, including the Voice data Sent to OpenAI? right? RIGHT?

Btw, if you dont understand their text, let me translate it for you

We took out loans from a bunch of venture capitalists in order to make a phone with a weird gimmick which is completely unnecessary since our OS collects your Data by default and dosent care about your Privacy at all anyway, just so we can please a crowd of tech hippies who have no idea about actual privacy but want to look cool by switching off their Camera after posting their 24/7 location on facebook and letting ChatGPT analyze their breakup text. (Also btw we have to somehow pay back those millions by raising our stock prizes, so stay tuned for our cloud selling your unencrypted photos because we have to enshittify).

The only reason to have hardware switches is if you fear that you’ve been compromised. And if you’ve been compromised, why would you continue to use a compromised phone for things that need your location or access to your camera?

And if you go in with the expectation of „this phone is going to be compromised”, just remove the Camera and everything and attach a Webcam or Mic for whenever you really need it. This way you can actually verify easily if its on, instead of having a mm button that can be easily toggled while putting the phone away

Is this why all Cola bottles are „a product by coca cola” and everything has a german word like bro stamped on it?

If Proton supports WebDAV: Theres Davx5. Also Theres for sure lots of foss smb and FTP mounting apps

Lower the resolution,

I am not going to run a game on 720p, just because I want to play games on my then 800€ GPU

Communism is not about an economy, but about freedom of science, education, and general peoples wellbeing

So stop fucking measuring it by Capitalist standards

Its like calling a Banana a lesser fruit because it has less seeds in it than a cocoa fruit.

You have no idea, how the constitution works

Just because your Lobotomised Orange can do anything he wants over in Jesusland, there is still a working democracy here

So its time to leave jesusland for you and actually learn how it works

While yes, the Parlament has to initiate the Verfassungsschutz, the Verfassungsschutz already published a 500 or so page document about it, however, in order for them to be able to use it as evidence and therefore van the AfD, they first have to win the legal battle with them fighting the whole evidence that can get them banned in the first place.

• if they will even exist at that point, since 10 have already been killed off

/e/ is not private at all

They have a lot of telemetry already installed, their voice to text is sent directly to OpenAI, and their Cloud is not encrypted (and presumably in the US), so anyone can view all your data without a subpoena when (not if) their services get compromised

No, it is not.

They forked LinaegeOS, which is 0 security oriented, stripped it of all its private services (like Seedvault) and now want the user to pay a subscription for their non encrypted backup servers and a shitty DNS blocker

Well, yes

Its always about throwing things out which you dont need. Until you need Them, at which point you buy them again.

Yes, I’m a PC hoarder… BUT do you know how hard it is to get parts for stuff nowadays? I can’t even buy a 1501 (or which ever old Intel socket it was) motherboard anymore, and don’t even get me started with OEM Dell or Acer stuff, one of their PCs fans is known to die after about 7 years, and another one is only availible trough eBay, for 40$

I have to use Hand written notes, so I’m using Saber Notes with my own Nextcloud as backup

Yep, had to delete my notes APP too, because it wanted to hold my Notes ransom until I agree to let all of them be processed.

Good that I already switched to Über notes once this AI became implemented in everything

Was that before they Retconned Sofia Lamb and Socialists or after?

Either way, I’ll read it

The Sofia Lamb bit is a retcon by hurt objectivists who thought the first game unfair.

I can see that, I was just playing BioShock 2, and in the Hotel section, there was just this Audiolog with 2 people, one of whom was supplying the other with raw supplies, the other manifacturing Adam Syringes out of it, and selling it to the same guy who then sells it to Ryan industries, monologing about „how big of a fool the other was, because they make so much Profits”, essentially retconning all of Capitalism in BioShock.

Which first of all wouldn’t even work, because they have a fucking Monopoly at that point and can raise prices all they want

And second just goes back to „Why the fuck would they Vote for Lamb, if they weren’t oppressed? Lamb addressed Problems in rapture that didn’t even exist according to BioShock 2

I’m surprised some egomaniacal billionaire didn’t start flooding areas if people couldn’t pay him to not to.

I always like to add it to my head cannon that when Rapture started leaking, the billionaires just started demanding money for the big Daddies and all the repairs

Now, disregarding the whole ethical thing, the reason why Rapture Fell was because there was a very big divide beetween the workers and the people. (Also because Plasmids were not regulated and the poor became addicted)

And since there was no social housing and stuff, they Protested, and then joined Sofia Lamb, who was appealing to them

So, its more of a mix of the people going insane without ethical restrictions, the consumers going insane because of addiction, and a bunch of people dying because of protests by the workers
