Privacy means that no one can see your data, and only you can decide who can see it. Anonymity means that everyone can see your data but no one can match you with the data.
As for the question, yes, I would more than happy when people could understand the risk of giving up the privacy. But I’m afraid that not many people would understand the message carried by those books.
In a perfect world, data collected by companies would be used to improve user experience. But we don’t live a perfect world and nowadays if a company doesn’t provide yearly income from investment it goes under. And to keep the numbers up, companies screw its users.
Ok, but why? And to be clear, I’m not against what you wrote, just wondering about people’s motives.
Don’t want to be a devil’s advocate here but nowadays it’s left-wing weirdos that use publicly available data to cancel people they don’t agree with. Let’s keep personal political views out of this discussion.
As for the first paragraph, I vaguely remember reading about this. And this is a great example.

None, you should appreciate people in your life on a daily basis and not because some holiday tells you to do so.
I never had issues posting on Lemmy when using vpn. If Lemmy starts blocking my vpn I will stop using Lemmy.
First of all, update that title. It gives a really bad vibe.
As for the question, don’t try to be a “good uncle”, don’t pretend to know stuff the kid does unless you know it. Ask your friend how to approach the kid. I’m almost sure all tips you get from the random people from the internet will be useless or confusing.
I work in a remote first company. We are spread across the whole country. To manage things we do daily meetings. Every single time my camera is covered and nobody has any issues with that. However, when I’m interviewing a potential employee I turn on my camera.
No product here, more like an advice. Instead of trying to thicken your hair, just embrace what’s happening. You will save a lot of time and money.
The Detective Game on Commodore 64. Back then I barely knew English and the game was all about the dialogs and clues. Even so, it was a great experience.
Putting aside economical aspect, western civilisation in order to sustain itself, requires on average little above 2 children per household (can’t find the link to the study). Such number would provide enough “man power” to replace aging work force and would keep society going forward. This is the perfect world scenario. Unfortunately we don’t live in a perfect world and there’s nothing current governments can do to change it. It would require a lot of work, money and time and no government will risk long term investment because it won’t give much votes.
Circa 1975, IBM proposed the cipher now called DES, the Data Encryption Standard. It became a worldwide standard for secret key encryption. As IBM originally designed it, DES had a 64-bit key. The National Security Agency (NSA) required that the key be reduced from 64 bits to 56 bits, with the other 8 bits used as a checksum. This made no sense. If a checksum were really needed, then the key could be increased from 64 to 72 bits. It was widely believed that the real reason the NSA made this demand was that it knew how to crack messages using a 56-bit key, but not messages using a 64-bit key. This proved to be true.

I make my own unforgettable sandwich. It goes like this: homemade wholemeal bread with seeds, homemade butter, lettuce, ham, skinless tomatoes, hardboiled egg, mayo, spring onion or radish or dilled(fermented) cucumber.
10 more years and posts like this will be classified as hate speech and terror act against the state.
I like it. It looks nice, has some unique features and is based on Firefox. But because it’s still alpha I won’t use it as my main browser but will keep an eye on a project and once it’s more polished I will consider switching.
Now, let’s put this into perspective - https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/ethnicity-and-the-criminal-justice-system-statistics-2020/ethnicity-and-the-criminal-justice-system-2020
If you want to provide data, do it as a whokr, not what fits your point of view.
It’s funny how indigenous population who’s scared about their wellbeing is called “far-right”. Focus on stabbings, rapes and other pressing issues.
I am a private person. Not because I have something to hide, I just don’t like the idea that my data is being sold which exposes me to various scams. I got to the point where some of my online purchases are marked as fraud due to measures I took - vpn, email alias, delivery to a parcel locker, spoofed phone number, one time cc. But with cars I cannot help myself. I truly enjoy all the “smart” features. Collision detection, ability to press SOS button when I need help, ability to remotely start/stop/lock/unlock/turn on/off ac/etc. I know how privacy invasive those things are but in this case I’ve chosen convince over privacy.
It’s a complex and polarising issue. The main problem is that some, sometimes most, of immigrants don’t want to assimilate. They are creating ghettos, don’t respect local laws. Other issue is that governments prefer to spend tax payer money for accommodating immigrants instead of solving nation’s issues.
I wouldn’t limit immigration per se. I would limit unchecked illegal immigration and spend more money on assimilating immigrants that want to contribute to a country they moved into.
