Surely, some random John Does of some nation, right?

im not sure what youre implying with the last part, ill ignore it as long as its unclear

Remind me, who produces most plastic in the world? Or most CO2? Or dumps largest amount of heat in the air?

What a peer reviewed study across 168 countries named “Keeping the global consumption within the planetary boundaries by Peipei Tian et al. Nature magazine.” found was commented in an article about it:

The richest 1% of the world’s population produces 50 times more greenhouse gasses than the 4 billion people in the bottom 50%. BUT if the world’s top 20% of consumers shifted their consumption habits, they could reduce their environmental impact by 25 to 53%. (550€/month in Europe is richest 15.2%)

(…)The study also shows that changing consumption patterns in just the food and services sectors could help bring critical planetary boundaries back within safe limits. And just last month, Hubacek co-authored a paper describing how the livestock sector is dangerously transgressing several of the planetary boundaries (…)

Its a problem with more than one scapegoat. Of course big corporations create the goods, but theres also a demand by 8 billion people for example to just highlight one

… /s

what a coincidence that media in ie mobility is all about electric cars vs cars instead of the other actual solutions to then point at little kid with public transport written on demo sign with laughter as subtext

Memeing like this more harmful than helpful for solving the problem due to big sectors very hard to change and therefore people like to shift to other sectors to ignore actual solution

When the environmentalism memer is being petty about the small issues instead of making the discussion about the big sectors of personal consumption like heating/power source, nutrition and mobility

And yes, AI in creative sectors bad

blue team, red team, lmao

this really seems to be a sport for certain people. In my country its similar the populists communicate like they are in a football stadium, throwing up scarfs of their color and stuff :D The incompetence painful

Limits to planetary growth

thank you so much, this is very helpful really

so a personal ad is all the data could be abused for? I mean meta recently just misused rights of book authors to train their AI with lots of terabytes worth of literature.

Its just a business expense, and so is I imagine personal data storage. Data sciene & full auto analysis catered to your corpo demands could be very powerful and evil in my eyes, idk I wish I could somehow be fully convinced that theres no danger, but I just am not as long as corporates see these things as business expenses and exists like nothing happened

Thanks i will look into this.

I’m new to privacy and just want to cut all data selling opportunities for big corpo, does that change or would you add to your response after knowing that? I’m pretty uneducated on the whole backend mechanics, it’s just the possibility of ill intent and the damage corporations can do with such data that frightens me

Your information seems very knowledgeable, so I will be very thankful for more guidance :p

Buying a VPN seems to be something I need to budget in one day… It’s not that easy during these times to get money flexible

on that note, no chat logins in all alternatives mentioned. at least these that also list minimizing data transfer to amazon :(

Would love to hear insights on why Mozilla with uBlock is worse than these front ends that dont specifically list minimizing communication with amazon efforts but only “no ads/open source” (i dont even know what what difference open source makes in that case)

Could it possibly work to still participate in the chats (like i imagine a throwaway account for example) or does that break the whole concept of privacy? How does that work exactly.

Thank you for your contribution!

also: anyone got emotes and other browser plug-ins to work on the player/site?

Thank you for your contribution all!

doesnt mention privacy, it even lists telemetry as an anti-feature

In what way is the app more privacy-friendly?

possibly working with addons like ublock (vern cc has ad breaks) and emote support (so chat isnt a cryptic jungle)

EDIT: added more description to my interest in the EDIT of the post

Yes but no. I see the issue in terms of late stage capitalism too - but I think in a sibling comment this discussion already happened.

Id just love to see more corporations being like Mondragon(spanish) in the top ranks (i.e. stock corpos) but I would not want governments specifically to gain ownership forcefully.

So I’d call it regulated capitalism - as you said, just not paleo libertarian laissez-faire as we clearly see how that doesnt work once all markets are established (and even the competition phase was, as we all should know, pretty questionable historically cough imperialism cough)

So “how” is there no regulation solution – my initial statement in question

Now also actually discuss. Would love to know “how” I’m wrong

to you, the 9 other likers and the one disliker:

I’d argue “under unregulated capitalism” and would love to hear how Im wrong here: When you buy an apple from a farmer in EU thats local to your small town, I’d say thats pretty ethical? Isnt it??!
