Yeah, so problem isn't phones. Problem is that teachers don't have enough authority. If teachers cannot take away the phone, then just toss them out.
I feel like this "ban phones" is getting common but it does not fix the actual problem of teachers not being able to keep discipline in class.
That is kinda disappointing. I had a distaste for Brave after all the initial controversy regarding the ad blocking, which only got worse from the crypto crap they now have in the browser.
I'll still keep paying for Kagi, but this is a step in the wrong direction in my opinion. Let's hope at least the results get noticeably better.
Meta said in a statement that privacy was top of mind when designing the glasses. “We know if we’re going to normalize smart glasses in everyday life, privacy has to come first and be integrated into everything we do,” the company said.
Ha.
I don't think Meta has the same idea of privacy than the people do. I mean, Meta having all the data hidden in their servers, being fed to AI and given to advertisement algorithms is privacy when the data is "anonymized" and held onto securely. Right?
Good breakdown on this in arstechnica:

In a statement emailed to Ars Technica, Cox Media Group said that its advertising tools include "third-party vendor products powered by data sets sourced from users by various social media and other applications then packaged and resold to data servicers." The statement continues:
Advertising data based on voice and other data is collected by these platforms and devices under the terms and conditions provided by those apps and accepted by their users, and can then be sold to third-party companies and converted into anonymized information for advertisers. This anonymized data then is resold by numerous advertising companies.
The company added that it does not "listen to any conversations or have access to anything beyond a third-party aggregated, anonymized and fully encrypted data set that can be used for ad placement" and "regret[s] any confusion."
Big corporations doing shady shit fucking over (or buying out) small companies trying to fix the shady shit to make the lives of the customers of said big business a bit easier.
Not sure what to say. Seems like the standard nowadays.
Oh no, almost visible tits!? Nono we can't have that, it'll morally bankrupt our audience.
Edit: apparently they're more lenient as long as it is properly tagged. Nice.
"No employee ever wakes up and says, 'I'm so excited. I made another penny a share today for Panera's shareholders,'" Shaich told Business Insider in an interview. "Nobody cares. You don't care whether your CEO comes or goes."
In case people read the title and not the article.
Lmao what the fuck Plex.
Who the fuck thought it would be a good idea to have this thing be opt out instead of opt in? Well actually, I'm sure they realised that nobody would opt in because nobody fucking wants this garbage. So the only option is to make it opt out, right guys?
Wait, really? So you think Matrix is the ultimate form of secure and private "chat" communities? Because if it is not then it is a compromise.
This Lemmy instance for sure as hell is not the most private and secure.
Man, what a fucked up story. I hope she gets massive reparations from this and hopefully this will get big enough to do some actual change. But I doubt that.
I really don't think Lemmy is polished and issue-free enough for tons of people to move here. It might be in the future but I feel like pushing it would do no good.
Lmao. What a response. Doesn't respond in any way, instead blames eu for some random "illegal secret deal". Sure bud.
Weird how much that response sounds like Trump. Just say random bs to divert the actual question.
