Tech savvy people are capable of mitigating those realities. And those who can not or chose not to are equally as allowed to decide such things for themselves.
For anyone that wants it, you can use GeoShare to interconvert between different map/location service links. When I tapped the Google maps link in this post, it opened in GeoShare and I could use the map app of my choice.
Why are you using the privacy nightmare that is Google to link to Flock’s address? That feels so ironic to me.
We use the tools of our oppressors against our oppressors.
The master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house.
And yet I’m more than happy for someone to use the master’s map to find the master’s house and throw a firebomb at it.
And then being caught because Google logged the map access and gladly turned that log over to the police.
Doubling down on the most trackable possible map after others have offered alternatives isn’t doing anyone any favors.
By allowing them to track you across apps and websites you use so they can sell that data for profit?
Right, that makes sense.

So let’s encourage it by continuing to link to it.
Are you going to do anything useful or just waste everyone’s time
