Just like youtube, they think they made this.
What they don’t get is that they are actually passengers on other peoples creativity.
It’ll be fine. Just need to keep investing in opensource, openaccess alternatives.
We guccii.
Is that even legal according to the GDPR?
“Legitimate interest” is used to cover a wide range of bullshit. I’ve seen it in a shop that had facial recognition cameras, they had a little sign by the tills that said “We use facial recognition for crime prevention and legitimate interest purposes” without even a clear way of opting out.
True but you can still disable it and I think they’re required to let you disable it
On today’s episode of Stroke Or Drunk
It was my phone shitting itself ok? You silly little mean bug
Por que no los dos?
Third option: their phone is having a stroke.
Bingo
last time it was discussed they said they were leaving the option in “certain regions”, which probably means EU and maybe California.

I’ve had this issue on Lemmy for a long time. Certain images come and go.
Weird. Loads for me.
Not for me. But like others said, it seems to come and go.
I have that issue a lot on iOS.
Well it’s not like they didn’t collect the data before this. They just didn’t target ads to you based on it.
I had a fantasy about this earlier. That there was actual legislation that elucidated the right to decide what advertisements we saw in our lives, and that “none” had to be an option that was actually meant you never saw another fucking add.
Where’ve you been? I got this message a few weeks ago.
Stuff like this tends to be rolled out in groups.
Not on Reddit, that’s for sure.
Yeah this was all over Lemmy weeks ago…
Reddit: “We’re going to make this place about selling you shit.”
The Squatting Redditor: “That’s perfectly fine. Reddit is still the same. It’s still awesome. Right, guys??”
Lemmy tell ya something. Reddit was awesome because it wasn’t a platform geared toward optimizing profit.
So can I opt out of all categories of ads then?
They still collecting and selling your shit
If they do it like Instagram, you have no control over the categories that get added and you can only opt out of one at a time, meaning the process will be extremely tedious and has to be regularly done.
