I think your autocorrect kicked in when you tried to type licking.

Well, here’s hoping that theory is wrong then.

Yeah, the Putin and Trump in cahoots part I know and understand. It’s the selling Alaska back. Taking away a state and lessening what America is probably won’t sit well with his base even if they don’t care about Alaska itself. It’s been a staple for long enough and has oil so I’m not sure they would be ok with it in the continental US.

I could be totally off though. I dunno.

I’ve seen a comment like this on a couple posts. What is driving this thought at all? Is there some sort of article or something that leads people to believe this would even happen? Why?

They either finished a PhD program, finished binging One Piece, or it’s Jesus reincarnated using the internet and he’s about to have a really bad day.

Now they choose the other side clearly and still go watch Captain America in theatres.

And they don’t understand that Captain America would be against everything that they stand for.

We’ll fuck, I forgot about Dre!

I understood this reference! Probably because I, too, am a dinosaur.

It’s Apple or Google pretty much here for us Americans. Who do you think we should support? Or do you think we should go back to t9 Nokias?

Yes. Then he yelled, “it’s sandblasting time!” The camera cut to a wall where a stream of sand was hitting it and it pooling on the floor.

Of fucking course that wasn’t said. 🤦‍♂️

I agree, but I think we should amend this phrase.

Release the UNREDACTED Epstein files

Wow! Thanks for this response. That makes a lot of sense as to how it’s done.

Thank you for that explanation!

So, this is probably dumb but could their whole argument be that it’s E2EE from your phone to their server, which unpacks it and reads it, then repackages it and E2EE from the server to the recipient while the AI sends the summary back to you E2EE from the server?

It’s so stupid, but I could see their marketing saying that it’s technically E2EE just with a…detour (e.g., we don’t say the whole process was E2EE in one trip).

Once again, I’m not sticking up for them. I am just trying to wrap my head around how they could justify this shit at all.

First, if I were to take a guess I would assume that it can be coded to give the AI read/write access to messages because it’s part of the encryption protocol without giving it to Meta as a company? I really have no idea because I don’t write code or deal with backend stuff so it’s just an idea.

Second, I’m not defending the tech company. I’m coming up with a hypothesis as to why something may be possible. I’m not saying it’s probable.l because we both know that Meta will find any way to gain access to data by doing any sort of shady shit they can.

My best guess is you have numbers associated with profiles and maybe the numbers get reported as scams through various watchdog orgs or people reporting to Meta directly?

The profiles aren’t encrypted I don’t think?

Interesting. Thank you! I’ve never looked this far into fonts because I never thought about that.

That really is a load of bullshit. They should only be collecting, since they are going to collect, the data for the requesting API entity if they really need that info. It would at least protect the end user but make sense for understanding why a certain page is requesting their font.

So, yes?

Is this an appropriate time to say that not even Abbott stands for it?

Fun fact: if the website you’re visiting includes a free font hosted by Google, the website and page you were accessing are sent to Google alongside your IP address.

Are you sure about this? Do you have proof? Working as an SEO for ten years I never heard this. A user asks the website to load a page which is on the website’s host servers (maybe Amazon, maybe private, etc).

The website would use an API to make a call to google’s servers and ask for the resources to load the font and then load the font once the resources were authenticated and sent. There should be no reason to send the accessing user’s data to Google for the web font because it should all be done from the host’s servers to request the font and load it and then it displays that to the user. It’s not like the user needs to load the font, the host does, and the user is just asking the host.

Maybe there’s something I’m missing and never learned though, so if you can provide documentation for me to read then I would greatly appreciate it.

Yes. Yes we do. Passport costs money. Driver’s license costs money. Green card costs money. Getting to any of these places that distribute them costs money and you need like 4-5 different documents to prove who you are (other IDs, bills with your residence, etc).

All of that is probably the “easy” stuff to get.
