Omnisus3446y@linuxxx I also consider to cut off Google as much as I can, big brother is one thing, but China goverment is another for me...
-
And if you have the choice of typing lyrics from memory or using google to find them?
-
@Codex404 I literally typed them from memory right in front of you (after using google, yes).
But I'm talking about having and using a Google account here. -
cursee165956yHave you read the Bloomberg article about Supermicro hacking scandal?
With the way things are, nothing can be truly safe or private anymore whether google or non-google :/ -
@cursee Yup. Goddamn, hardware motherfucking backdoors in servers from all big us companies...
-
@cursee And the last part you said is not true; if content is end to end encrypted on the client devices, the servers can't read shit.
-
@irene True, nothing says that smart watches can't have them either but that's completely irrelevant for the discussion right now.
-
cursee165956y@linuxxx @irene both of you are right. It's a very blur line which companies is reliable, which hardware is reliable.
I just hope no one want to bother hacking consumers hardwares like our phones and watches and PCs. That's the only thing we can wish :3

(internships included as I'm on my first real job)
Best: my current job.
Worst: using Google services at an internship instead of quitting (yes, this is a big deal for me). People call me crazy when they hear that but I've got my fucking ethics/morals/values.
For the record, if I'd have to choose between having an income/using Google services or starving, I'd go for the income part anyways, I don't have a deathwish.
