There is a difference about complaining and deliberate use of AI to fake things and to spread lies hampering efforts. Especially when those lying know the facts and have chosen to still lie.

A few days ago I wrote of vacuums that were spying on people.
I do not know if this should be what annoyed me today or what cheered me up today. I WILL call it self inflicted mental injuries tho.

Hackers take control of robot vacuums in multiple US cities and abuse owners
Ecovacs robot vacuums in multiple US cities were hacked in the space of a few days, with the attacker physically controlling them and yelling obscenities through their onboard speakers.

Slipped in some water some kid split in the hallway and I fell on my bad knee. I tried to move around a little bit, but it's bothering me. Very irritated about the whole thing. They will make me go to the doctor and there will be nothing they can do about it (like when I fell off the table last year in class from a foot up). Then the adulterous one comes over here because her mom is mad at her about the whole situation, like I am responsible for her mom. No wonder my blood pressure is up.

Microsoft annoyed me with their 2024H2 update. They made Microsoft Recall tightly linked to Explorer, so you cannot turn it off anymore. Another nail in the privacy and security coffin of windows. I just cannot say that I don't want all that AI sh!t and I certainly don't want screenshots to be taken without my consent.
Luckily I run Linux at home, so private stays private there.

Its a opt in now, isnt it. And one can disable.
That said i agee. Data hungry snooping peeping toms.
Windows is becomming a lock smith while boasting privicy, activly makes tools to harvest even very private stuff as passwords or sites you visit. And the sell or use your data to financial benifit for them. Make no mistake about that.

Yes, but you cannot uninstall it. It's now a required dependency for the file explorer, which is interesting as it wasn't a requirement before. One wonders what MS intends to do there.

Indeed. I have a healthy distrust of all ms products since win 3.1.
And opting out in a button is not really stopping the program as i am sure you know.
Fine print is a bitch.
One can opt out but opt in again with another function that one can click not really knowing it triggers said function.
Agreed, that's why I have been building my own Linux distro for the last 10 years or so. I have full control there.
Unfortunately i do need windows sometimes and at work they went full in with Microsoft, so I have to use it there.

Probably the same as Google did on Android where you could theoretically turn of tracking but in reality it was always on.

You all need to look at what Paypal is up to as well. This article covers mobile computing but totally ignores desktops as far as I can see.

Watching my wife deal with her mother's estate. In spite of all of her property and investments being in trust, the banks and insurance companies are acting like none of that exists. So my wife can't access the funds to pay the bills or make any sort of transactions. She's been dealing with this for months now, spending hours on the phone, appointments with the various entities, being told " Yes, everything is in order." Then getting letters saying "No. Transaction denied."

When all else fails in some places a short meeting with the local TV network and them contacting the bank to say why did you lie to this person by saying everything is in order works quite well. At least here in Australia the biggest motivator of banks and insurers to come clean is the threat of a TV or newspaper story on them.

The world's largest home robotics company has a problem – its vacuum cleaners can be hacked from afar
Without even entering the building, we were able to silently peer through the camera on a Deebot device made by Chinese giant Ecovacs.

The mail service is also spotty in the US. For instance, eleven days for a letter from New Orleans, Louisiana to Shreveport, Louisiana. Or, a small package from Indiana to New Orleans sat in the Memphis regional depot three days, then New Orleans depot three days, sent to Lockport Louisiana and finally to Hammond Louisiana. Tracking is really informative.
