Got this notification when I opened Chrome when coming back to my desk after lunch.
"We changed our privacy settings to allow us to snoop on what you're looking at and shove you ads accordingly. Feel free to opt out, but we'll probably opt you back in when you aren't paying attention."
translated: "this new privacy feature reduces the amount privacy you have!!! what a cool new feature!"
Idk why the heck you just got downvoted into oblivion for pointing out the irony in google calling this a "privacy feature." Good old reddit moment it seems.
lol it's no worries. actually I have the privilege of being bot-downvoted by CCP sympathizers because of comments on this post https://lemmy.world/post/2338419, there is also the possibility that I’m just an asshole.
Damn, you're still copy pasting that? That link doesn't even go anywhere lol
He thinks he's getting bot downvoted, but there's actually people invested enough to stalk him. Cute.
Yeah, he's definitely "important"
I don't particularly care about your or his internet spats or attempt to control the all important narrative on lemmy. You are the one giving him rent free space in your brain and on your keyboard though.
didn't think about it like that! i feel loved :)
