Sorry, what? Even if you get rid of all plastic tomorrow and stop leaking of microplastics into every part of your life, you will still carry those particles with you. Basically forever.
So yeah, of course we need to address the root of the problem, but also we need therapies like this, cleaning out what is already in the body.
Used it for a while but somehow results weren’t super useful. Went back to duckduckgo, but I also use searxng.
:D
Yep, the article mentions they are going for an Uber-like model but with service agents. Hmmm, I wonder how well that is going to work for them…
You love to see it.
If you have a friend who is invested in this, sure. How many have one?
And paying some shady dude on the net versus paying a “reputable” company… I don’t think the average person will go for that either.
While I am in the same boat as you, you severely overestimate the tech-affinity of the average Netflix user.
Pirating content safely, setting up a media server for it, share it with other people… it is all possible, there is good documentation out there. But aside from having the drive to do this, you also need to invest time to keep it running and maintain it.
The average person out there is happy to pay Netflix money so they don’t need to do that.
Edit: add to that also the fact that it is technically illegal in many countries. This is probably also a deterrent for the average person.
So like what, 20?
I am sure the people who just lost their job will be super happy about that.
Much wow
gasp
People… don’t… do this?
“Up to” can also be 0%. Why is there even a need to say “up to” here.
I mean, what’s the point of collecting all that data if there is no use to it. Why offering you a points program that seemingly gives you free stuff for tracking your purchases if there is no benefit to the company. I’d say unless it’s a hugely incompetent company, they don’t collect so much data on people for no reason whatsoever.
And its been going on for decades with some people having handed in their info to various companies, many of them maybe even connected at some level the different dots on people, for the entire time. And that’s all for nothing so now those companies also need to record you 24/7? Which is an even bigger amount of data to be stored exactly where? Also needs a massive amount of filtering, because really, how meaningful are everyday conversations of people.

Look, they’re not rich. We get it!
Wasn’t the Zuckster quite close?
You forgot my favourite one!
“My working hours are not your working hours, feel free to reply when you have the time” or however else it goes…
Well, exactly the same can and is happening on specific Lemmy servers too.
One of the vegan instances bans you if you downvote anything that speaks in favour of veganism. Not that I just do this out of spite, but there was this time where a thread about vegan cat food gained traction and I downvoted some comments that were really borderline. Ban within an hour.
Same on that notorious star trek instance. Go ahead and put some downvotes on Discovery related posts, it will also earn you a temporary ban.
So let’s not pretend that it’s only big bad reddit doing this.
I think it is more of a hill than a goalpost.
