If users give an app permission (which they always do if they want to use it), please enlighten me on what data you think an app collects that is more than it should?
Permissions don’t cover everything. Say an app has access to photos — that’s a green light to use them, but how do we know it’s not overstepping? Without checking the source code, we can’t. It could be hoovering up all your photos right now. That’s why we need to look deeper than permissions.
“we” ? who do you think is going to be doing the looking? it sure as hell wouldn’t be you because you clearly don’t know shit about fuck.
I get that you really think you’re onto something here. you’re not. it’s never going to happen and it wouldn’t effect any meaningful change for society if it did.
ya got duped by a politician’s campaign-speak. let it go.
Who’s doing the looking matters less than the fact that someone should be. It’s about accountability. And change often starts with what seems impossible, until it isn’t. Dismissing the potential for progress just because it’s a challenge is the real dupe here. You basically just admitted you’re wrong this entire time.
you have absolutely no idea what I stand for. I’m a strong supporter of open source. but of all the real and significant problems in the world this is an abysmal issue to focus on for a presidential candidate. and frankly it’s a pathetic hill to choose to die on. try putting some energy into issues that could actually cause meaningful improvement to the problems we are facing instead of getting suckered into debating a topic about which you know VERY little.

it’s not a challenge. it’s just dumb and enough smart people know better than to waste their time doing something useless.
wait it doesn’t matter who looks? hmmm ok you’re trolling. oops I did it again.
Look, I can’t argue all day with someone who has the mentality of a 15 year old. You really like to call yourself smart.
well I am a senior software developer so… again definitely an expert in this field. what credentials do you have?
Doesn’t matter. Keep eating corporate garbage and calling yourself an expert. People like you don’t last long.
