Does the cruncher know my birthdate though :p

S/he thought it might mean Mi6

RFKJr can take it in, he’s got a free slot

Also their security sucks and they get hacked all the time.

Thank you, these were two very interesting read on the gdpr law, spirit of the law and the complexity of enforcing it (and how those data-thirsty suckers always find a way to carry on their wrongdoingds)

I have been using Firefox focus (klar) which remembers and records nothing. Feels like a fresh install each time. But for regularly visited sites, it requires doing the consent form each time. I hope it gets extension support one day

I used cromite for a while, and in general prefer it to Mulch, but I stick to it for the webview. (only way that seems to have the webview replace Google’s is to define Mulch as default browser). I still often use cromite too

Edit : not just cromite in fact 😅

Wrong, that’s Mulch. Uninstalling and deactivating Google apps is the first thing I do. Android system webview is the tricky one, but Mulch has a webview too. Still the default one manages to creep in sometimes, and deactivating it breaks things that call it specifically. Edit: there is a system webview setting under Developers tools, but Mulch’s does not appear there

But but… Aren’t you happy with the illusion of freedom and choice? Wouldn’t you be even happier buying stuff you don’t need? Trust me

Why isn’t there a sarcasm flare on lemmy (heck, on the Internet)

Can they even untrain an IA with a given set of Data?

“Bard, forget this ever existed”

“Sure, I’ll make a copy so I won’t forget to forget”

There is an app on F-droid but maybe it’s just a web wrapper

I saw it pop up in F-droid a few weeks ago and wondered too. Using trillium already so I didn’t give it a try

Depuis que l’Union Européenne leur tape sur les doigts. Mais ne soyons pas dupes, ils ont encore beaucoup de marge

Oh so that’s why you don’t have a brain chip lma… (wait 5 seconds to skip ad)… o

… And found out that the minority report predicted he was about to commit a crime.

Thanks for the tip!

Given the project has been paused more than a year, I’ll wait and see

Well my question was specifically about smart prediction (beyond autocorrect). I have found scores of privacy friendly keyboards. The one I have been using for a year is from simplemobiletools (they have a full suite of apps and I use most of them ie contacts, gallery, notes…) but I miss the prediction feature. As you say even autocorrect is not yet supported in florisboard…but that wouldn’t be enough for me. Personalised dictionary based on typing would be a start, but swiftkey goes beyond, it proposes the next words before you type them

I haven’t installed something outside of it for ages. I used the foxy client for a long time, and recently droid-ify

I’ll give it a try, thanks

I don’t see the same thing on android 12.? Only restrict background data.

I tried it, but couldn’t find basic stuff like how to type áàâ from the letter a… Also no predictions

I haven’t tried it yet and indeed I just read his post from 3 weeks ago on how to get back on better tracks. I will give it a try but I couldn’t see from its description that it would go beyond its focus on privacy, at least for the moment

Not rooted for once in a long time, but I’ll think about it. How do you restrict an app’s access?

Does it have a predictive function? Based on what?

Thank you

That’s interesting. How do you connect to people you know then if there is no identity? Sounds a stupid question but I don’t get it. You send a link? A qr? Or a temporary id like I’m Mike999 for the next 30 minutes and you tell your friend?

Finally something that sounds like speaking to someone in real life without eavesdropping. How it should be.

How and who is addressing this at large scale? I mean uptake of foss vs proprietary, privacy compliant vs not etc… It’s the same story for signal vs WhatsApp, when one sees the majority of relatives using WhatsApp, s/he would then drop signal altogether or keep it alongside for the one geek that uses it. I am in this situation and it defeats me that not much people care and chose convenience over concerns that I find legitimately vital, or in any case not trivial. I quit using Facebook/Instagram 2 years ago seeing what it does to society and am better off mentally, but the interactions I have through mastodon and pixelfed are zero, although my meta pages are still up with these links
