Even if you're boring, you're still being tracked.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago (3 children)

You're being tracked but nobody is paying attention.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 2 years ago

Not yet. But if/when they find you interesting they already have all the info they need.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

Except bots. They're always watching.

Some people searched "boobs" on Google.

Some people watched Heartstopper on Netflix.

Some people searched for methods of aborting a baby by yourself.

Some people downloaded a Bible application.

Some people follow trans TikTokers.

Some people watched and liked YouTube videos that questioned the existence of a god.

Some men watched gay porn.

Some people regularly messaged a drug dealer.

Every datum is permanent, but every law isn't.

Big Brother isn't watching you

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 years ago

They aren’t watching, but they are recording so they can watch later at their leisure and skip the commercials.

How does big brother know about my porn preferences if big brother isn't watching me masturbate? Checkmate.

Sounds like a contradiction.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Big Brother was watching you, but isn't watching anymore.

Because he doesn't even want to know, he wants to forget. He knows if he goes back to look now he's not going to like it, and he can't do anything about it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

They just had a quick look and are no longer interested.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

That's half true, no one cares about you in particular but they still collect everything to have a database of all thing that could possibly care about in the future, Snowden did a great job revealing that and while it wasn't state driven you can take a look at the Cainbridge Analytica story if you want to know what's possible even if no one ever cares about you specifically, keep in mind that that's even possible with very outdated technology by todays standards!

Except for that one woman in the NSA, she loves your dick pics.

Funny anti big brother propaganda. Hope you don't mean it serious. They are watching you

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I'm afraid they do mean it serious. [email protected] has always been known for it's very serious takes

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

What if i just don't feel comfortable for you to know when i watch porn?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Now this is a doubleplusgood meme

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well then, I guess it's time to turn it up a notch. This one's for all you hard working nerds, whomps, freaks and losers at the NSA

Grabs tequilla, texts ex girlfriend, loads xxxfurrydamageandcake.com Letfuckingoooooooooo

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

The specificity of that url is sus. But I'm not verifying.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Sounds like I’m not that boring then 😤

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

How does he know my preferences if he's not watching me though?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Big brother isn't watching you because you're not a party member, merely a lowly prole. Deal with it!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

i feel ~~watched~~attacked

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

To be fair, I don't watch Big Brother either because it's boring.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Big Brother isn't watching you... now he's watching your porn.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

What can I say, I have good taste.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I'd like to know what preference is standard and not weird

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Am I boring or are my porn preferences weird?
