@tenet @ajsadauskas @technology @pluralistic change the system, change the incentive structures, do what you want, but sorting companies in good and evil is just a distraction

@tenet @ajsadauskas @technology @pluralistic it’s capitalism.
If you expect companies to be nice, you are doing something wrong.

@tenet @ajsadauskas @technology @pluralistic well, there are trust models.
Its a simple question if your trust model includes google or if it does not.
Talking about “friends” is silly here, it’s not about that.

@ajsadauskas @technology @pluralistic when using stock pixel android, Google does not need the location from Fotos to have your location data.
On the other side, Google is actually building pretty cool things still under NDA to prevent location data to leak to other apps
.
If you don’t trust Google, don’t use Android with Google services. It always has been that simple.
