You’re implying I am in need of security (I am not), and that security without AI is not achievable. I say hogwash if the user is willing to make adjustments to their digital hygiene.

This exactly! I don’t understand how one would let an LLM touch their passion projects. I don’t mind someone quickly slopping together a little python script for something, but I would never let it touch my babies. It’d be like buying a self-assembling lego set. Sure the end result is the same, but is the end result why someone buys a lego set?

A better tomorrow starts with YOU.

Me personally, I’d get a burner smartphone in a drawer just for banking that is on airplane mode 24/7 except when I need it for banking and use a dumbphone for everything else. Also, I run linux and I have strict control over my router and I have ZERO subscriptions and creditcards. It’s not much but it’s something. Beats blindly rimming apple and alphabet.

Been misgendered as “egg” too many times. No, I’m nb, but thanks for implying I’m something I’m not.

This mentality is so gross. “Well might as well roll over and get pounded in the A by big corpo! what else am I going to do, right? Hehe!”

Sweet, I hate jobs!

Please just stop using a service when it gets unbearable. There is no online service you -need- except maybe bank and tax stuff.

The linux kernel is compromised. Lets use NetBSD!
