A few days back I watched a SomeOrdinaryGamers video, in which he states to drive a Tesla car, despite expressing the obvious privacy concerns surrounding the built-in camera system; but doesn’t seem to consider the privacy-impact to those around the vehicle, he chooses to drive through public streets. And another example being Rob Braxman, while ironically, both known to frequently criticize other public-facing, internet connected surveillance systems (like Ring for example).
If it was “just” a cabin camera, staring you straight in the face every time you drive your car (and you’re somehow okay with that), it would still be a terrible look in context with your channel content, but at least it is contained to you personally. But knowingly driving these surveillance nightmares on wheels through public streets, subjecting others to that surveillance, while you represent pro-privacy channels online, is just inexcusably hypocritical to me. But perhaps it might just be me, so what are your thoughts?
techlore?
Naomi Brockwell?
not so “horrible”, i think
isn’t techlore the one who said iphones are better for privacy than even linux computers? 🤣
did he? when, where? context?
techlore is an up to date privacy source for me. Their commentary on recent events is sometimes helpful
it was a few years ago now, i won’t be able to find it, but it was on youtube.
Even Braxman isn’t too bad if you can separate the information from his product advertisements and his… personality.
