As a life360 user, I really don’t know how any reasonable person in the last 10 years could sign up and not know they’re selling location data. It’s a free service primarily designed to track your location. I didn’t read the terms, I just assumed it to be true.


Some tlds require the owner to meet some legal requirements, like affiliation with a specific country. I’ve registered .us domains before without requests for ID but I did pay with a US based card.


Note retroswap supports physical cash transactions. I’ve never used it but It looks like you’ll need some Monero as a security deposit, and of course there’s is random chance involved in finding a willing seller to accept the gift card. If you pay with the card, remember whoever originally bought it is theoretically traceable by visa.

There are also many sites that will buy gift cards, at a loss. You may be able to use one of them to turn it into fiat.

Also a pawn shop may give you cash for a gift card, idk.



Excellent!

I was grepping chromium’s code looking for anything like Firefox 's webcompat plugin a few days ago. Lmk if you need any support finding evidence in source code.



I think not? I’m sure it still comes with some privacy risks, plus your phone is using power you paid for to train models owned by someone else I believe. What features are you thinking of? Lol I use a pixel as well


Federated learning as a machine learning topic is unrelated to floc afaict.

The issue I have with things like FloC and the topics API are that they are attempts to keep the cash flowing at Google before disabling 3rd party cookies, when it seems obvious that the time to disable 3rd party cookies is now.



You may not need to do so legally, I believe you would have success speaking with someone at your school about it informally. If you are uncomfortable speaking with some of the people at your school, try to find someone you are comfortable with and raise the issue with them.







I agree electronic payments are more beneficial than harmful. In terms of privacy in the mass surveillance world we live in, using cash just forces the watchers to use your cellphone data instead. I think privacy these days is mostly about living an uninteresting life.
