Most people don’t realize how many systems can ID them with just name + ZIP + birth year.

And they’re out here posting “Feeling 32 💕” like it’s harmless.

I wrote about it:

You Don’t Owe Anyone Your Birth Year

Whitepages knows more about you than your friends do.
Names. Numbers. Addresses. All out in the open.

I wrote something about the quiet power of opting out.

@mttaggart The different font weights for the different options does a fantastic job of conveying the relative danger levels.

You just don't see that quality of UI design now that the internet has ruined everything.

I was an Internet user long before browsers arrived, in the days that it was populated mainly by technology corporations, universities, and online services. (I checked my own flights on EasySaabre.)
It was never the Internet that was the problem, it was its eventual "democratization" giving voice and critical mass to conspiracies and idiots.

@vecrumba @mttaggart The thing about idiocy is we are all subject to Knoll's Law. We all have different contexts in which we are knowledgeable, and for some that list may be much smaller, but the world is big and complex and there is too much to know.

The internet just gives everyone a microphone and pumps the feed in by IV.

@mttaggart Replace "the Internet" in that screenshot with "AI", and you have just explained the last 3 weeks of tech news reporting. But in option 3, also replace "I'm" with "We're".

@mttaggart still one of my favourite setup questions. It seemed so harmless and innocent back in the days.
Show threadTritzApr 9, 2023

@mttaggart Most of us couldn't have known. And in the words of Bo Burnham: "You know? ... It wasn't always like this. Not very long ago, just before your time. Right before the towers fell, circa '99. This was catalogs, travel blogs, a chatroom or two."

The broad use made it what it is. We made it to what it is. We and some of our crazy and repugnant minds. But the "normal" corners of it are still out there. And in the end it's upon us to put on our filter and leave everything else behind.

If it knows what any of that means, then the right choice may not have been made.

@mttaggart Echoing your sentiments, and those of others who have responded, I also suffer from Eternal September syndrome. My resentment is directed less toward users (people) than consolidation, surveillance, and using >= 1GB to display a few lines of text in a browser. Mostly, I'm just disappointed and tired of it all.
