Stop using apps from big companies!!!!!
Lawsuit: Weather Channel illegally shared user location data with advertisers
IBM-owned company accused of tricking app users with false disclosures.
This is why you should NEVER use Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Internet connected security cameras, etc. . .
Amazon error allowed Alexa user to eavesdrop on another home -Β https://reut.rs/2GvClGc
This is why people should get off of Facebook and stop giving personal info (like emails, dates of birth, phone numbers, etc.) away to private businesses in exchange for "discounts". Counterproductive to shred personal info at home but give it away freely to businesses. "Discounts" can cost you dearly in stolen identity in the event of a data breach like this one.

So say we all @Savagejen: I would like to live further away from civilization, but still have a top tier internet connection.
Do NOT count on a "blue wave" to save us. . .you must get your butt out and vote and take others with you! Full stop!!!

Genuinely haven't thought about Dvorak keyboard in years. Good stuff, as I recall. @tomasino: @crc join me in Dvorak land where typing causes less distress
Looked this up on Snopes. It is true. @Elizafox: All spacecraft going to the moon have to have an LP of Sinatra's Fly Me To The Moon stashed onboard. It's the rules.

Want truly alternative search results?
Use Searx rather than (US-based, Amazon AWS-reliant, centralized) duckduckgo!
Searx subverts data from search engines while protecting your privacy in a truly decentralized matter!
https://searx.me for main (often saturdated instance)
https://stats.searx.xyz/ for a list of instances.. and better, deploy your own! <3
