Domestic surveillance is no joke. The government can literally compel companies to grant them access to your online accounts.

Thank you for saying this! Sure, that AI-assisted categorization feature in your Google Photos account is cool, but it means letting this tech see files.

Canadians may be friendly but they don't screw around when it comes to privacy. A form of respect additional to apologizing for everything.

That's right. Did you know the government can even compel your cloud storage provider to hand your files over for investigation? Your data can and will be used against you in today's reality.

So can pretty much any company you store files with. We need to stop giving our privacy away in unecessarily confusing account terms and conditions.

Another day, another reminder of why end-to-end encryption should be standard in every online platform.

Does it work on people?

Newsflash: this applies everywhere online. Think you have a strong password for your personal photo vault? The company that offers it could get in at any time.

Does anyone else read the irony here?

Its funny how everyone's idea of heaven is a complete untouched paradise, crystal clear waters, lush green forests, enough food for everyone, classless, moneyless, stateless, a Utopia of peace, unity and happiness. But here on earth it's considered a leftist ideology.

It doesn't just deserve to go bankrupt... it needs to actively atone for everything it's done.

PSA: Your risk of an 'account takeover' isn't limited to attacks like this. Lax privacy laws permitting government access requests make every consumer vulnerable to third-party prying. #Cybersecurity #Privacy #PrivacyRights #PersonalData #Hack #InfoSec

Things are getting bad for Canada, too. Have you heard about its new privacy law? Government overreach at its finest.

My interview: “I came to this country as an infant and became a U.S. citizen,” Roswell Encina said. “So sitting there, on the Fourth of July, I couldn’t help but think about the promise of America and the work still required to protect it.” www.advocate.com/news/people/...

Yes! This and blind cloud storage providers.

This is a problem. It shouldn't be opt-out. Nothing privacy-related should be nowadays. Google is well-aware the average consumer doesn't know their rights nor the way it violates them.

I feel like this is going even more overboard with government control. This time they are requiring age verification for downloading APPS on your phone. The Supreme Court has allowed it. apnews.com/article/texa... #PersonalRights #GovernmentCensorship #PrivacyRights

2/ It’s called Carbon Capture & Storage. To make it work, we’d need to capture CO2 pollution in multiple ways: • Trap it from smoke stacks • Absorb it from the air with grasses/trees, then capture it from those plants when they’re burned for fuel • Scrub it from the air with giant fans

the internet has become too magical. "cloud storage" is sending files to someone elses computer. linking accounts is signing in on someone elses computer. buying things online needs you to send you card info to someone elses computer. everthing takes place on someone elses computer.

Wish she would also identify what the data center will be used for, crypto mining, cloud storage, AI, or ? Crypto should get NO tax breaks and should have to pay high taxes and electrical and water infrastructure charges. Cloud should be audited. Doge has the entire S-S and IRS files somewhere.

Thank you for speaking up about this. Businesses should, too. Glad to see my cloud service provider - a Canadian company called Sync - is publicly opposed.

Formatting my reply as a repost because I feel everyone needs to be told: How familiar are you with Swiss law? Government interests? Overseas data transfer and storage come with risk. It's safer at home.

Is there really a point when Microsoft will hand the government access to your files anyway?

A reminder to everyone that pretty much all of these will be affected by Canada's new privacy Bill.

If you are canadian, please sign this petition to oppose bill C-22, and protect your right to data privacy!

I will be so pissed if this Bill goes through. It's clearly being implemented by people who don't understand and aren't qualified for cybersecurity regulation. The stakes go beyond messaging. Many forget cloud storage access is in jeopardy as well.

Consent is important. But it's sad to remember the reality that most consumers today don't care enough to advocate for it.

Exactly why we shouldn't allow backdoors and secondary keys. It's a problem in North America, too.

Like Sync to iCloud, this will be my new Google.

Majority of Americans Support Ban on Surveillance Pricing and Electronic Shelf Labels 68% of Americans say they worry about surveillance pricing increasing the cost of goods. Just 5% believe it will lead to lower prices #SurveillancePricing #ESLs #retail #shopping #privacy #surveillance #tech

Don't forget this isn't limited to messaging. Files stored in the cloud will be at risk as well.

Friendly reminder that any company eager to implement AI isn't privacy-first.

Colorado’s updated AI law (SB 26-189) significantly reshapes compliance requirements for businesses using AI in hiring, lending, housing, healthcare, and more.

Couldn't agree more with his stance on Bill C-22. The odds are against us but I highly encourage everyone to share given what's at stake. x.com/mmalivuk/sta... #CanadianPrivacy #Privacy #PrivacyLaw #BillC22 #CanadianPolitics #GovernmentSurveillance #PrivacyRights #GovernmentOverreach #DataPrivacy

"No way would I ever drive a Chinese spy car!", I say as my phone records everything it hears, google and meta are training their AIs on all my emails and fb messages, and the US government is monitoring social media for any criticism of Dear Leader Trump.

Nobody was talking about building nuclear reactors to power YouTube and Dropbox data centers. Nor were they using gas turbines for power generation. That only started with the AI data centers which depend on power hungry GPUs.

Dear @dropbox.com Pop up another modal on my desktop asking me how I'm "enjoying the Dropbox desktop experience," and I'm going shopping for another cloud. Seriously that bullshit can fuck right off.

Yes! I'll take this as an opportunity to remind people that virtually all mainstream cloud storage companies use AWS.

... and the companies they run!

Exactly why I'm against any and all integrations with AI. If a company is making it a priority, consumer rights aren't on the same list.
