Holy shit, Samsung Smart TVs straight up send "snippets" of things that you watch back home to "to provide you with customized Smart TV experiences".

Search that page for the text: "Your Smart TV transfers video snippets or TV tuner information in order to determine the programs watched."

So the cool part about Mastodon, right? You don't need to be on the same domain as other people to talk to them. You can sign-up on or invite your friends to:

mastodon.madrid

mastodon.cat

mastodon.eus

And many others, and still be able to talk to the world / follow your friends on mastodon.social and vice versa.

Please help those servers grow by spreading the word about them! (And if you are interested in starting a new server, you can do that too!)

Media coverage treats politics as a spectator sport...as entertainment where cleverness & shamelessness is cheered. This lowers & removes *expectations* that public officials observe constitutional norms.

We must bring back the expectations of constitutional behaviour.

Shortly before the coup against Evo Morales, his government announced plans to nationalise the lithium industry and to deal directly on the global market.

Demand for lithium is expected to triple in the next 15 years and guess where the largest reserves in the world are?

Still find it difficult to believe that Pawar would give, or was keen on giving SS the CMship on a platter for a whole 5 years even if NCP got ministries of their choice...there is more to it than meets the eye...anyways, even President's rule doesn't mean it is game over🤷‍♂️🤐

@Saikatd Talking of echo chambers, here is a very interesting diagram on how various 'tribes' on the social media are virtually isolated, with almost no communication between them. But IMO even on a platform like Mastodon this will be inevitable.
