if you don’t want to be assaulted.

you don't have to apologize, that's not my point. in fact i want you to quietly think about how what you said before, and just now might be wrong til it hits home for you.

i know it seems like im baiting an answer. its the net, arguing is fun, nothing's stopping you from replying, but I'm being straight with you. stop victim blaming. you're not stupid, im not saying you are. *please, stop. it only helps the oppressor, and we're all getting stomped by that boot.

i want you to know im not tryina bust your chops specifically. sure, i picked your comment to reply to, but it's nothing personal.

I'm also speaking broadly to the room, reminding everybody what we already know; that how we look at pervasive surveillance n how we got to live under it is absolutely broken.

i'd like to point out that it shouldn't be on women (or anyone) to be on constant guard against attacks on their privacy.

yes, it is the state of the world, but the attitude of your comment is victim blaming.

let's not forget that while we on Lemmy may be aware of the danger of mass surveillance tech, we're not the majority.

snowden told us years ago how fucked everything is, and surveillance has only grown since then. let's not forget that it is not normal that corpo data-mining is the norm (along with included de-facto warrantless surveillance). Even though we all should be better, nobody should have to be as careful as we are.

hell, let's be real. As long as we use a smartphone, we're not being careful enough either.

i want a stupid fridge that is sturdy (damn you plastic shelves n drawers!) and keeps my food cold. also it should last 50+ years.

i know it's possible cuz my mom still has her '57 frigidaire

I think this is okay because they are outing themselves

only if there's an accompanying expansion of the 187(og) initiative
