@Viss as usual it IS safer to not buy _smart_ devices.

Now of you excuse me while I tilt the earth rotation by 2° because I heavily need to roll my eyes 🙄🙄🙄

@ppxl @Viss remember, the S in IOT stands for security

@Viss EXTERMINATE

That's the Dalek origin story.

@Viss that man sucks a lot!

@Viss

NO!

No more internet vacuums or fridges.

Techbro infected tech is the blob, you can't outrun, its everywhere, squeezing into everything.

Don't TOUCH it.

And its all infected. Enshittified. Watching, reporting, handcuffing. Its NEVER yours, it all theirs, and theyre getting worse.

@Viss @ai6yr another unintended use case for AI

"reportedly used an AI coding assistant to help reverse-engineer how the robot communicated with DJI’s remote cloud servers"
