    So at what point do we just decide "Fuck companies, fuck revenue, fuck anybody who has, say, a million bucks to their name in cash and assets. No more money making unless you do it without screwing people. If you can’t, you fail. Good day. "

    Tax the every living fuck out of the rich, destroy data even being collectable or sellable at all in any form.

    Boom, 100,000% better world to live in immediately.

    Obviously pipe dream, but I think this is really the mindset to take if humans are gonna be around and have anything resembling happy lives in say, 100 years.

      Problem with taxing the rich is that they just go to other countries with their money. Not saying we shouldnt, just that its not simple.

        Well then there 's a new tax for changing citizenship for people with multiple huge bank accounts. I dunno, the solution gonna be complicated whatever it is. Maybe the one thing every country can agree on, making taxes just unbearable for them wherever they are.

          And theres the flaw, something every country can agree on. Thats not happening unfortunately. Even if we could force all countries to do a certain thing, theres varying levels of corruptions everywhere that would prevent something like that in the first place. The closest we’ve come so far is probably oil sanctions on russia.

    Tesla is only the second product we have ever reviewed to receive all of our privacy “dings.” (The first was an AI chatbot we reviewed earlier this year.) What set them apart was earning the “untrustworthy AI” ding. The brand’s AI-powered autopilot was reportedly involved in 17 deaths and 736 crashes and is currently the subject of multiple government investigations.

    How utterly unsurprising. Also,

    "Consent” is an illusion
    Many people have lifestyles that require driving. So unlike a smart faucet or voice assistant, you don’t have the same freedom to opt out of the whole thing and not drive a car.

    This is the kicker, many people need cars for unrelated reasons and the fact that ALL car brands abuse our data means there is no alternative.
