I am going to be streaming Big Walk on Saturday with @rejectconvenience.com @clouddttv.bsky.social @lakemojave.bsky.social @risuruuu.bsky.social and @kdsketch.bsky.social at 1pm CDT! I've never played the game before, but I hear it's really fun and collaborative! Special Saturday Stream incoming!!

Just a friendly reminder, this whole "I use AI to open source X software" is going to be a HOT BED for malware. Please just be careful :)

OKAY HOLD UP

There's a new video on Patreon! It'll be live on YouTube on Monday :) Here's a preview! www.patreon.com/RejectConven...

Wouldn't it be cool if there was a main channel video coming out in like a week? I think that'd be cool.

I hope I will be glad I made this? It's hard to tell. youtu.be/MiI-6riOCyQ?...

The LG privacy policy is better in some ways than a lot of policies I've read, but then they also fumble pretty hard in other areas (as expected). All that said, I've never seen a company PROMOTE ad-blocking in the privacy policy before, so that's really cool. Learn more here! youtu.be/-xLWfac3WSA

I'm itching to shake up some hornets nests. If you have suggestions for popular YouTube sponsorships that you'd like me to read their privacy policy, let me know in this community post :) www.youtube.com/post/Ugkxdas...

There's a new video coming next month, so here's my monthly Patreon update post that goes over some details (with screenshots! ooOOoOooOoo) www.patreon.com/RejectConven...

Here's the cut down version of the Meta privacy policy. It's a doozy! youtu.be/7jRZMNYHGSU

I had fun camping out and shooting the moon at a ~ 97 % eclipse! so lucky! Fuji XT-3 with the Fujifilm XF 150-600mm

So you know how in the Discord privacy policy, we saw that they collect highly detailed usage information (including regular location check-ins) that they share when legally requested? Well, here's a really interesting example of how that actually happens! www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrXI...

I can't believe 10,000 people have subbed to watch me read privacy policies. To celebrate this numerical achievement, let's look at the big on: Meta/Facebook/Instagram! Join us for the live stream on Monday at 12pm eastern, or catch the cut version just a few days later!

aeiou

Recording a podcast during an eclipse with the Waveform team was such a joy. Gonna print these big. Episode out tomorrow!

Reading Discord's privacy policy on stream :) www.youtube.com/live/AZP9KjU...

Did you know that almost every car made in the last 10 years has been tracking you in strange ways? Why does General Motors know what meds you take? How do stalkers keep using cars to track their victims? Find out in today's video: youtu.be/J7oTWytFCmE

I wonder what would happen if a bunch of twitch streamers protested the whole "we use your streams to train AI data" by streaming just static...

New video about how cars have become surveillance devices is up on Patreon!! www.patreon.com/RejectConven...

New video will be on Patreon in just a couple hours... 🚗 👀

The most requested privacy policy for me to ready by my Patreon members is Steam, so that's what we'll be doing at 12pm Eastern today :) youtube.com/live/DowJCtG...

If there's a data center going up in your town, you should watch this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zavx...

Here's what it looked like in case you would also like to send a message to AI companies

Just updated the website homepage. It now has my Core Values, AI policy, and Privacy Policy right up front. rejectconvenience.com

This video feels pretty relevant at the moment. Remember to be kind when talking about AI usage. We're all human, we all screw up. www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-ed...

So excited to see them again <3

The forum is down for a bit. It's getting hit with thousands of AI scrapers, so I gotta block all of those and keep an eye on it all day to make sure they don't come back. Side note, I really hate AI.

If you're an iOS developer that has worked with an app that accesses the photo library, please shoot me a DM, I want to fact check some things I've been looking at. Thanks :)

omg one of the sponsor emails was from a real person haha whoops!

I'm doing my first Creator Commentary stream in about 13 hours for my Sapling and Mighty Tree supporters on Patreon! Lots of things to go over, it should be a blast! Consider joining if you want lots of details on YouTuber things! www.patreon.com/RejectConven...

I have been replying to the constant onslaught of sponsor emails with more and more cartoonish demands just to see what happens. It's honestly been kind of fun, since I know I'll never actually take any of them on.

I think after I'm done making videos about privacy, I'll just set up a nice little wood shop and make nice boxes. That sounds nice :)

Last night I watched the latest WAN Show (Linus Tech Tips), and came across a spot in the VOD where the audio was muted. Turns out, Linus made a very poor taste “joke”/reference to Alex Pretti: “I think that’s a dead guy. Is that Alex Pretti?”. I found a recording. (Cont…).

here is a website with every single person that voted for chatcontrol namesyoushouldknow.lol there is a button to download the whole website and rehost it in case for any reason it goes dark, enjoy
