Agreed. This was rolled out without any regard whatsoever for people’s interest in data privacy. That kind of entitled behavior from any government agency is just plain gross.
Traditional QA is horse and buggy shit anyway. Shift left and make your tests the requirements (ATDD). Testing is self service, automated and there’s zero delta between behavior intended and behavior tested. Put product owners on the hook to learn Gherkin and Bob’s your uncle.
I’d like to request my tax dollars stay the fsck out of religious conflict as well. This has been going on for thousands of years. I don’t believe in unicorns and leprechauns but I do believe there are many serious issues to solve that have nothing to do with imaginary deities.
All the shitter domains are on my DNS block list. Happier for it.
I like it. And any OSS licence model is better than closed IMO. Let’s see how it shakes out.
Opt out. If we don’t exercise our rights, we lose them.
"What if they retaliate and make life difficult for me? "
That’s both illegal and against policy. If someone delays your right to travel for this specific reason, delay their job by asking for their supervisor and their name and employee number. Then file a complaint. That will dissuade that public servant (and their leadership) from exhibiting such behavior and encouraging it respectively.
“But they are capturing your image in 10 skillion other public locations.”
If you don’t care, then that’s fine. Some people don’t mind the slow encroachments on 4th Amendment protections. Cool. Others do. Cool also. That’s why we can opt out.

Honestly if you do truly value having control over your privacy take this advice to heart. There are so many good Linux options now that are even easier than Windows to install. All it takes is a few clicks. You can even choose which UI you prefer in many cases. All those previous barriers to entry no longer exist.
NextDNS is another option that’ll give you PiHole level control and customization. I will say PiHole is pretty easy to get up and running tho.
Fair! I intended to have it in the original post but it didn’t take. Likely my error.
I guess the shame and expense Sony learned the hard way in 2005 has faded and now kernel invasion has become acceptable.
We had a CVS Pharmacy location near me that decided to leave that location. Self checkout there was based on assuming everyone was a thief. All their wounds were self inflicted. Almost everything was locked up and you could never find someone to get your item for you. The genius management thought it was going to help profitability by deterring theft. Instead it was a deterrent to willing and eager customers wanting to buy their stuff. When you step over a dollar to get to a dime, your business is on borrowed time.
I heard Texas has a ballot initiative to change the state’s name to Republic of Gilead
I’m just of the general opinion that any personal data you entrust to any corporation is going to be at risk - regardless of it’s assurances. There’s also a risk of that corporation being legitimately acquired by another thus nullifying previous TOS, etc. Or worse case, they sell all your info anyway. Connected technology is moving quickly. What might seem safe to share today could become the basis of an insurance claim denial when they discover a genetic predisposition they believe you were obligated to disclose.
Would be interesting to see a gui that maximizes the content based on rotation if that were even possible
That’s the MS business model in partnership with PC makers. It’s a juggernaut. They’ve operationalized it.
