    Siri, Alexa and Google offer apps which are voice activated, so its pretty much by design. So.....yea, its totally different from what CA was doing. Heck, Facebook ended up paying a big fine for allowing CA to do what they did.

    No, the fact that they store the data they got from your microphone is by no means design. The system can work without it. Matter of fact they even tried to deny it until the voice recordings of more than 1000 individuals got leaked.
    The message is crystal clear. Don't help Trump unless you want trouble.

    Sigh.....obviously everything to you is all about Trump and his perpetual victimhood. India, Brazil, UK and everyone just wanted to hurt Trump. Same with Corona, - it was all to hurt Trump and nothing else. I've heard it all a million times.

    We are playing an eternal loop here.

    - It's not about Trump.
    - Yes, it is. Because everybody harvests data for personalized ads and nobody gets punished for this. It's a legitimate business model.

    By the way, not only Trump supporters believe conservatives being discriminated against on social media. Alexandr Ulyanov agrees with it. However, he believes it's because they are an inferior race of humans and deserve it 100%.

    Trump and his supporters are the biggest whiners out there, and its not even close (and they are typically not conservative). What explains Republicans inability to compete without using "liberal media" which they hate so much?

    Isn't it absurd they insist on using the services of these companies all the while they rave about them being "fake", "enemies of the State", "discriminating against conservatives" and all the other whining they do about them? The whining never ends. Then they create laws aka government control to force these companies to carry their message even when it violates the corporate rules (that is what DeSantis did)?

    This is not just "Social Media" issue .. this is a Media issue in genereral. We all know "or should know" that that the Main Networks- News publications are a far cry from "Fair and Free Media" - also an Oligopoly - owned by very few - what we recieve is controlled spoon fed pablum - akin to bread and circuses for the raging masses - keep them divided so they don't mess with "The Status Quo"

    The "conservative" attack on private property rights and ACTUAL free speech continues. Glad to see their idiocy called out and blocked.

    Your record of not being able post without some false accusation against the messenger is still intact.

    Never said anything of the sort - but, your black vs white paradigm is testament to your complete lack of understanding of the issue.

    You are right. I was quoting the other poster. This happened to me before, and I think its because old quotes stay in the box and I removed the wrong tags. Honest mistake.

    No, I quoted your exact words. I called it commie talk, although later I said that dictator talk is more accurate. I own my mistakes, but please don't accuse me of things I didn't do.

    You DID say this, and I quoted you directly, and everyone can see that in post #14.

    "What? Private companies can't be allowed to run their own businesses without the government micromanagement? That's commie talk"

    .
    I was being nice the last post - this is a moronic black vs white paradigm -that only exists in the fantasy land of your mind .. it is not an all or nothing game..

    Nowhere did I condong "micromanagement" on the part of Gov't - but to you .. any regulation of "Micromanagement" .. which is false abject nonsense on steroids. ..

    And quit putting words in my mouth that were not there. .. you do this every friggen post .. WTF is wrong with you.

    Again, I quoted you post WORD FOR WORD, and then I posted my response to it. That's how it works.

    Do you expect me to quote your post and then type it out again in my response? Are you kidding me? No, I get to create my own response.

    You say " this can not be allowed", and you say "We must either regulate them like monopolies - or break them up -"

    Who can disallow it? THE GOVERNMENT
    Who can regulate them? THE GOVERNMENT
    Who can break them up? THE GOVERNMENT

    See, you ARE demanding government intervention - micromanagement (yes, that's what regulations do). In my book that's commie talk or dictator talk.

    Is the F-Bomb making it look like you have an argument? You don't have an argument. You just posted a long post only to complain.

    What an upside-down world we live in.

    Shadow banning, manipulating trending sections, deplatforming political opponents by tens of thousands that's what nowadays called free market. But challenging the status quo is communism. It was not a free market when they were bankrupting Cambridge Analytica for helping Trump to win the election.

    At the very least shadow banning should be illegal.

    You are completely lost -and have no clue how it works - every post you put a claim in my mouth that I did not make.

    "What? Private companies can't be allowed to run their own businesses without the government micromanagement? That's commie talk"

    This is what you posted . .after which you accuse me of "Commie Talk" - when I did not say anything of the sort.

    Now get a grip - and get an argument that is not Ad Hom fallacy ..

    For crying out loud, get over yourself. I quoted your words directly using the quote function, and IMO your comment sounded like commie talk, which is why I said that in my response.

    See, your words are in the quote, followed my my words in the response. That's the whole idea here, and in every other discussion board.

    How about we let private companies run themselves as opposed to using the government tell them how to do it.

    I feel conflicted. It seems a little dishonest to be giving people the impression an open discussion is going on while some people are being secretly silenced.

    If the public knew what they weren't allowed to see, that would be one thing, but that's not really what's happening.

    Maybe if they had some disclaimer informing people discussions were being ideologically censored and subjected to politically biased moderation deleting people's posts.

    You seem to have trouble understanding what is being said to you - Below is not a quote from me - never mind "directly" - it is a quote from you.

    "What? Private companies can't be allowed to run their own businesses without the government micromanagement? That's commie talk"

    In your response - you say "Commie Talk" on the basis of "Gov't micromanagement - read your own words above to avoid further confustion.

    The problem is that the post you are responding to - does not condone Gov't micromanagement. So your post contains false assumption -an inference of something that is not there ..

    This is known as "Strawman Fallacy" - and you do it - along with Ad Hom - in nearly every post. You make stuff up that is not there .. because you can not deal with the message as written.

    Yes, it is my response to your post which I quoted word for word. In my opinion your comment sounds like commie-talk. What is so complicated about this?

    Whine, whine, whine......

    You said this:
    And then I responded to it by saying you talk like a commie, and later I said its actually more like dictator talk.

    OMG

    You are the one name calling "Commie Talk" - backing up claim with Strawman fallacy - making up something I did not say or infer - and call me a "Whiner"

    and then finish with OMG . So lame and pathetic

    YES-YES-AND YES. For crying out loud that is MY response to your post. Your words are in the grey box with your name on it, and my words are outside that box.

    No one said it wasn't -so why are you foaming at the mouth and banging head against wall.

    It is not my fault that "Your Response" consisted of name calling and false accusation.

    You should try making an argument sometime - Name Calling and demonization of the messenger is not an argument mate .. figured you might have figured that out already - banging head against that wall so many times must hurt.

    You keep responding - trying to defend a hopelessly lost position - you the one doing all the name calling and "Whining" - now trying to project your failings onto others...

    No go away - until you have a valid argument ... toot toot.
