Originally from County Durham, I recently careered head-first into my 50’s. Now settled in Sussex, and married to my soulmate, with an awesome stepdaughter. Son of a Salfordian, I’ve been MUFC since ‘82. Love gaming, mostly on Xbox and Steam Deck.

Increasingly, surveillance is being normalized and integrated in our lives. Under the guise of convenience, applications and features are sold to us as being the new better way to do things. While some might be useful, this convenience is a Trojan horse. The cost of it is the continuous degradation of our privacy rights, with all that that entails.

Selling Surveillance as Convenience

Increasingly, surveillance is being normalized and integrated in our lives. Under the guise of convenience, applications and features are sold to us as being the new better way to do things. But this convenience is a Trojan horse.

Ah man, the ball wouldn’t go in, so near but so far. And not really good enough. But we’ll have better days than this :) #mufc #EuropaLeague
@Mrfunkedude That’s tough, man. I’ve had a few low-sleep nights, since the weekend and I’m exhausted now. It’s like my brain wakes up when I shut my eyes and my ears turn into satellite dishes, picking up every sound. I’ve tried ear plugs, but I find them uncomfortable, and I end up shifting around my side of the bed for hours, before I finally drop off for what feels like a short snooze. I hope you get some rest soon. It’s the thing we all need.
Wow. That was epic. #INTBAR #ucl
@CharlieMcHenry This second leg has been fantastic.
@scribbbleanime It depends on how you look at it. If all the revenue that opening all XGS games to other platforms helps to fund new games that appear on Xbox - and Game Pass - day one, then it’s worth doing that. I have a PS5, yet I still prefer playing my Series X. I know I’m in the minority of gamers, but I also know that I’m not alone, and as long as a new Xbox console is developed, I’ll be there to game on it.
Bloody hell, what a game. Extra time beckons, #inter 3-3 #barca! #ucl
Wow, Barca right back in it now. They look so hard to resist, 2-2! #ucl
Wow, that’s a huge decision in this game. Looked like a great tackle, in real time, but the replays certainly suggest that the Barca defender caught Lautaro on the way to the ball. Definite penner. #ucl
