Toot by Lynn I 🗽 📚Lynn I 🗽 📚 (mastodon.stickbear.me)

@ratking @NicksWorld Just to add to this because I used to live in a place that actually tried to do this under the guise of checking on the well-being of residents: It's illegal, and, it's a bear to advocate against/fight against, because the kinds of pushback you will get are next level. Also, "use tech" is not a solution to this. For one thing, you need to know where to point your AI-powered thing to find any potential camera, they're small, and usually in an out-of-way place on the ceiling. And that's on top of all the great things Lynn pointed out with regard to people and smart devices and expertise and all that.

Oh look! It's the Firefox Crash Reporter! This kind of shit is why I have finally, while kicking and screaming and not relinquishing a single ounce of the hate I have for Chrome, switched to Chrome for my default browser. I'm still trying to get things signed in though so loading the occasional Firefox window when I don't want to or have time to fight with someone's shitty sign-in-by-clicking-this-link feature.
