Eyes Up's purpose is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." But it has been swept up in Apple's attack on ICE-spotting apps.

Thus solidifying my scorched earth policy with apple.

I don't want your naziPhone.

FYI, Google is also going after ICE-spotting apps.

FYI, Google is also going after ICE-spotting apps.

And therefore, ill punish neither.

Can you add anything else to nullify action, and foster an attitude of placid obedience?

Please, share more ideas to help entrench the status quo.

You're made of spare parts, aren't ya, bud? No, therefore you should punish both, and get a phone with GrapheneOS or Linux.

So why didn’t you just say something like Look into Graphene OS or Linux in the first place?

Why did you assume I was "nullifying action"?

[–] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why did you assume I was "nullifying action"?

Mostly your action nullifying attitude.

I shit on Tesla on a routine basis, and get zero pushback. No bitching about other vehicle producers who also are Trumpdy Dumptys..., zero.

I say don't buy naziPhones, and people come out of the woodwork with every conceivable devil's advocate angle, and basically maximize tangentiality.

Anything other than reinforcing the message of not buying apple:

Be mad at everyone, such that you apply pressure to no one.

You know, nullifying action.

OK, so you had an incorrect perception of a comment, but it's not your fault. No, surely it must be everyone else that's at fault for *checks notes* "nullifying action", whatever the fuck that made-up nonsense verbiage means. not only that, but then your pet attack dog comes along and somehow twists that into me defending pedophiles.

idk, maybe the problem here people is contorting themselves into human pretzels so they can leap to nonsensical conclusions.

I should actually pop back in and look at the thread, instead of just replying to my inbox. I have a pet attack dog? That's kinda neat. I wasn't aware, but neat nonetheless.

My point stands: when called upon to boycott Tesla, no resistance. When called upon to boycott Apple, blow up the conversation into anything but generating momentum for an Apple boycott.

It really is that reductionistic.

No, they're pointing out the chilling effect of shitting on the topic.

You're the kind of fuckwit that would say Chris Hansen does no good against predators because he's one guy doing a small set of stings... You're the kind of guy who'd shit on a compromise policy that's otherwise still a step in the right direction. You're the kind of guy to make good the enemy of great.

and you have the gall to use insults when YOU are the one committing the social faux pas...

Pathetic. If you're going to point out flaws, be constructive with it. Otherwise it is still on YOU if someone assumes negative intent from unconstructive criticism.

I'm not particularly concerned with what some random person on the internet thinks of me, so I'm not going to bother reading all that. But feel free to go off, just do it to my hand because the block I just gave you means I'm not listening.
