  1. Create an IG account with a burner email and join the chat
  2. Sell all other member’s data to advertisement, scam telephone services, mailing lists, etc… subscribe all of them to newsletters from amazon and pornsites (or just wait for all of that to happen naturally)
  3. Wait for someone to bring this up
  4. “I told you, we should move to Signal”
  5. Bring everyone over
  6. Win

Can you create an account with a burner email? When I tried it about a year ago, plus some legitimate addresses, it never worked or it straight asked for a phone number. I gave them a temp number, received a code, it ‘ran into an unexpected error’.

„I want people to care more about their privacy so I’m going to give away their data and seriously harming their privacy to tell them that i told them so“ - what kind of mental gymnastics is this?

First of all I was joking, as I know that selling your friends’ personal data without thier consent is not only immoral but also ILLEGAL in all free countries. If you, for some reason, need this to be be clarified, I do not endorse giving away other people’s personal data.
Second: when my father found two boxes of cigarettes in my bedroom when I was 13, he made me smoke all of them in one sitting. I never smoked again.

Is your father Hank Hill???

Nah, Hank made bobby smoke a whole carton.

smoked 2 boxes of cigarettes in one sitting

that seems like an extremely reckless way to scold your child

Desperate circumstances call for desperate measures. Smoking will ruin your life.

I’m pretty sure it’s straight up child abuse

I threw up twice and got a sore throat so bad I had to take medicines for two weeks.
But hey, it worked. Maybe if you have to do it, just stop after the first pack…

hmm really? I’m pretty its very different in the US

in fact I said “in all FREE countries”

US is the freest country around as long as you can afford it.

so, basically, “paid”.

Freedom is only free if you have rich parents.

I would actually argue that this argument is more suited for Greece. I was born here and live here now, and the bueraucracy is absolutely horrendous. If you have money, however, you pay a lawyer and they do everything for you. And, at least on the islands, the police literally doesn’t work. I used to drive about 30 km daily… when I was 13. I saw a police car at least once a week (way too frequently for Greece), even drove by them, greeted them, never got caught.

Bonus points:

  1. The GDPR, while far from perfect, still applies here;
  2. many people live here that cannot, for the life of them, use computers. Digitalization is starting to emerge here and it’s still in it’s infancy, but even when they are done, you will still be able to do any government actions the “analog” way;
  3. since this is Greece, where democracy emerged, people do their best to protect it (although lately this isn’t working out too well).

So US isn’t “free”, but “discounted” at best?

I’d say there’s heavy dealer markup over msrp

well they’re already giving their data so it’s just accelerating the process
