  • They probably use a third party company to mail statements and such. I wouldn’t be surprised if they have already tried to contact the account owner but are unable to. They still need an address on file for account verification so they can’t exactly remove your address without an updated address from the customer. I don’t know why they asked you though. You wouldn’t have permission to update information on someone else’s account.

  • It collects and stores information about your system and also has your identity tied to your purchases.

    I don’t think it’s a big privacy concern as far as tracking and spying on you.

    But realize any device you install steam on then is tied to your real identity if you purchased games on that account. And can be used with data gained from other parties to determine your online activity if a government were to be able to obtain both.

  • It’s worth noting that I had to retire a few devices that I used with my iCloud before I could enable ADP because they didn’t support it. That may be why it’s opt in, although it’s not a very good reason.

    The other reason may be because Apple can’t recover your passcode if you turn on ADP and they don’t want customer support nightmares of users losing access to all their precious photos and memories because they could be bothered to manually back them up or remember their passcode

  • If you don’t use a second factor to unlock your password database then you are correct.

    Here is the real secret. If the only authentication you have on an account is password auth then you really have no authentication at all. Passwords are not security

  • Apple: “Brainwashed”

    iMessage: “Beginner”

    Well which one is it?

  • I think it’s probably cheaper in the long run to self host a tree instead, unless you live in an apartment with absolutely no green space. But I’d rather get a VPF and host a tree there if I had too

  • Yes please

    Welcome all new r/GenP users!

  • I don’t know what GenP is (sounds like a shorting of prison term general population) but welcome to the fediverse all 👋👋🫘

  • The fediverse has some resilience built in. As users have a back up account. As an admin with concerns of government control, have a playbook to be able to pass off control of the instance to another admin in a different jurisdiction and that they can restore the instance to a new provider from backups.

    As for stopping corporate interference: making sure bad actors like meta can’t federate, good moderation practices, and anti bot defenses. Intelligence sharing between instance admins, cooperation not competition.

  • The worst person you know just made a great point

  • We’re cooked chat

  • I don’t know if your changed your view on the issue after getting more context on carrotcypher’s histoy on Reddit but I’d like to share some of my quick thoughts

    1. I don’t think it’s probably fair to characterize him as a nazi but I do think it’s fair to find some of his views objectionable
    2. He let his personal politics influence his moderation decisions outside of posted community rules. It’s bad moderation when Lemmy.ml doesn’t it and it’s bad when he does it,
    3. Removing him as moderator is appropriate based on number 2 moreso than number 1
    4. Defederation from FOSStodon is a nuclear reaction that I don’t personally agree with but it’s a freedom that the fediverse is built on. Zealously demanding all (non-malicious) instances remain federated is a bad thing as much as zealously defederating from instances that don’t have the right politics.

    I often find myself outside the “acceptable viewpoints” on the fediverse and it hasn’t really affected me other than getting a few downvotes once in a while. The fediverse isn’t actually as ideologically pure as we think it is, I think the constant tankie/liberal drama is proof of that.

  • Some people are willing to go against their own personal wants and desires if the majority of the community agrees. They may do it because they believe in democratic principles and whatever it is may be not what they want but doesn’t cross the their “line-in-the-sand” of what they are willing to do in service of their community.

    And when it does finally cross that line, people will step down like Kevin has done. I may not agree with the democratically elected government of America right now but I am still an American. You don’t have to agree 100% with the community to still be a member

  • Some people volunteer and contribute out of their own good will for the betterment of society. Especially people who believe in FOSS which is a reasonable expectation out of someone who admins FOSStodon

  • Pirates breathe air, therefore oxygen is enabling copyright infringement

  • Well adamtots is his instagram handle

  • Not to counter your anecdote with my own. But I have been getting a lot of email spam pushing books and workshops dealing with narcissistic or toxic employees and I don’t even manage anyone so it may just be that firing toxic people is hot right now as far as workplace issues and any trend has people trying to make a buck off it

  • This is a much better looking style than Adam Ellis’s old buzzfeed art style but I don’t know if the joke lands any better.

  • Unless you are aware of further developments than I am, Alphonso required permissions and provided a consent dialog so it could not be considered spying or eavesdropping.
