Thanks for the insight!

No clue, I’m a Dutch citizen. Do your require to do an iris scan to get a passport in the USA? Might be covered there.
Its been here for decades. It was already mandatory to provide an iris scan upon arrival in the US back when I visited New York in 2013. At the time, I was already baffled it was a requirement and wasn’t happy, but at that moment there is nothing else to do then comply. The US probably has a very big iris scan, fingerprint and passport database of at least the western world.
Glad to see that the bullshit jobs are replaced first!
Every artificially created ingredient has a code, for instance here in Europe we have ingredients listed as E-numbers. These ingredients are often used to replace organical/natural ingredients. You will see that if you buy pasta sauce in the grocery store, they’ve probably added some E-numbers to make the color of the sauce more red. These ingredients are not necessary at all, these are either marketing instruments to make the food look more “tasty” or to replace a more expensive product with a replacement chemical. We don’t know the long-term effects of these artificially added ingredients yet, but what I do know is that I know more and more people with allergies related to these artificial ingredients.
Most countries don’t have free healthcare. But require people to be insured. E.g here in NL you have to have atleast basic coverage costing roughly 140 euro a month
Yeah same, pretty sure the Russian branch of our company is separated now. Perhaps it is mainly represented because contractual obligations couldn’t be broken as easily
The real marketing trick is making you believe it is a cookie, and not some mixture of weird chemicals and ingredients that can only be identified by a code.
Funny thing is that in our “regional delivery center” in Romania, most developers are woman, and CS is a very desirable study for woman there
37m in one country. Considering the size if the market share in Norway, this is quite a huge fine. If only other countries would do the same. Imagine 37m x 160 or so countries where Meta is active
It will be difficult to switch my friend groups again, now that they are finally on Signal
I don’t want it to turn into Telegram, just give me a lightweight, secure and privacy focused messaging app.
Yes, I’m Dutch, the average is indeed more like 6, and it was a joke. However, I’m 6,3” and if I go to a concert, I feel about average. I’m not towering above everyone else, like I do when I visit the south of Europe or Asia for example
6’2”? That’s pretty average here to be honest
It won’t, because AI will generate based on existing content, but will not make something new
Well, they need to know your device rotation to serve you the perfect ads! /s
Seriously, I wouldn’t mind them knowing a thing or two about me, when I’m using their services. But tracking everything, just because they can, is just obnoxious. If you would translate this to the real world, you would definitely get arrested when you would stand on the corner of the street, noting down everything you see, every dimension/detail of every person walking by. You would be labeled “creep”. But if Facebook does it, governments go like: You can build your new data center right here, don’t mind the measly peasants that currently live in the village nearby
If any company knows how to fast track their way into bankruptcy, it would be Netflix. Kudo’s for them to try and improve their previous track record!
Ah the infamous wizardry of the backdoor in encryption discussion.
Yeah, imagine running a company, with customers that simply pay the monthly, because it is cheap enough to cancel. But then you start annoying the users and reduce convenience, then increase the price. What could possibly be the end goal here?
Strange thing is that they are not even valuing their own privacy. Adding “backdoors” to E2E encryption, or whatever that means, will also impact them. If a backdoor exists, malicious parties will find and exploit it. Legislators own messages, videos, photos and other media will no longer be safe either
