How long now until I’m going to have to have back-alley surgery to replace my eyes as the only means of blocking ads and remaining anonymous, ala Minority Report? 🤔

Hello, Mr Yakamoto. How are those tank tops working out?
The second i get this im deleting my account
Cancelled my account this morning, enough is enough.
I’m sure that will just push more people to get their music from soulseek and torrents.
Governments will never understand that piracy is a service problem.
Governments will never understand that resorting to extralegal measures in order to obtain what it is you want and need is due to difficulty in being able to procure it through legal channels
Capitalism will never accept that privacy is the free market voting with it’s wallet, because capitalism is actually not pro-free market
My family canceled our plan when they announced their investment in Helsing which makes AI weapons.
Cancelled mine after they price hiked a dollar for the third time in like a year lol

Weapons, but especially digital weapons, will always be turned upon their subordinate populace if it suits the oligarchy
Oh no! Anyway…
Honestly Spotify is a terrible company and service, like all streaming. You own nothing. They pay artists peanuts.
Hope this leads to people buying music and/or supporting artists directly.
Why are we all playing this game? Why not just say screw the UK? Isn’t that easier?
Or is this just an excuse to up the surveillance and potential ad revanue?
The UK is a decent sized market. It’s harder to ignore than you’d think.
For some context for Americans, the UK has about the same population as the two most populated US states, California and Texas, combined.
I’m glad I got all my shit off of there already.

Even just getting a picture risks this. It’s so ridiculous. A TOTP code makes so much more sense.
