and any that code their way out of it using publicly audited and verified technologies will get sued out of business, at best.

Individuals who implement their own encryption will be targeted next, if they aren’t already.

gonna need some citations there, bud, otherwise i’ll safely assume you know fuck all about world history

Yeah I get that occasionally, swapping to another endpoint fixes it right up

Its also about monitoring what people are saying privately about your shows

And even if it is your key, if you can’t see how they made the lock then you can’t prove other keys won’t unlock it.
OSS FTW

It’s the realization to raise kids in an unbiased way and let them make their own choices that’s killing it

Without access to indoctrinate children as much as they want, religions will die out

With that in mind, watch how they focus more on children to try and survive. Disgusting social parasites

Not the lies, theft, manipulation, and indoctrination of children?

Well, at least something gets them to wake the fuck up

oh gotcha

No, not exploitative of the recipients of the proselytizing any more than usual.

The base point is to separate the cultist from their support network and put them in an unfamiliar environment where they only that the cult to rely on, building and entrenching their psychological dependence on the cult. That’s the exploitation.

Yup. They’re really good at rationalizing nice sounding bullshit to justify what they were already doing.

You mean despite all the reasons i just listed?

My condolences. It’s such a stupid, dangerous, and exploitative practice.

In my former religion, it was 2 years in a foreign country. I’m lucky many of my family members came back alive, given the places they were sent. They “laugh” about stories of being assaulted, robbed, houses broken into, extorted and threatened, but it’s a joke now because it’s all part of “gods plan”

So disgusting.

(Edit: It’s also a way to make sure that they face stress and doubt away from any resources that might help them out of the abuse. Instead they’re at all times with another cult member tasked with keeping them on the straight and narrow. It’s more a 2 year indoctrination session where the member gets exposed to anti-religious views through aggressive proselytizing, but then is forced to work through that alternate view in a directed and monitored way so that they reach the “right” conclusion. When they get back, they’re so much more incredibly difficult to have a conversation with, because they’ve entrenched all the bullshit)

Linksys luckily still sells OpenWRT specific routers.

sure, and then you have to make sure you get the correct radio accessories, as the built in pi wifi isn’t going to do so hot acting as the hotspot for multiple video streaming devices.

Radios which you also have to vet against the approved hardware list for OpenWRT, and having multiple channels is even more of an issue with the lack of USB ports (depending on model)

In my experience it’s because it’s finicky as fuck and requires very specific (and often more expensive) router models, and even then it still crashes just as much as a proprietary os router.

It’s called an “MBA” and they are the tip of the enshitification spear

Yeah, what is far more likely to happen is the process of generating propaganda for your cult members (i.e. political supporters) will become automatic, probably based on a simple prompt.

With AI generated video, how do you know whats real? Well, the person you trust will tell you so! So the blues and the reds won’t just be arguing over different interpretations of facts (i.e. like left media leaping to cast trump saying the word “bloodbath” as a call to incite civil war, instead of the obvious comment on economic futures it was meant to be. Up to and including reporters who have recorded video of them using the term “bloodbath” in a fiscal context claiming “No one would ever use the word that way! He’s a violent facist!” the delulu is real), and instead they’ll each have their own set of ‘facts’ and ‘evidence’ with ‘video proof’ supplied by their chosen drug delusion dealer.

No side will be immune from this, because any side that doesn’t participate once it starts will be at a competitive disadvantage. Society will become more blindly tribalistic, and those who seek out the truth will be ostracized and demonized, by everyone.

Ok, so who had “World ends by politicians getting automated lying tools” on their apocalypse bingo card?

Oh you think the blues are voting in their best interest?

I have a bridge to sell you, btw. Real good bridge. Hmu in dms

The merchants have always run the temple

So all efforts to cure cancer are in direct opposition to the will of god?

…thought I was making a joke, but now I’m worried

Shoot, pay me enough money and I’ll dress up and say “I’m back!”
