  • This is how you know it’s time to stop carrying an iPhone. (not to mention why you expect your post will “magically” disappear from the forum.
    1. You’ve owned several and always liked/loved them
    2. You actually liked the feature of how it handles updates
    3. You learn that Apple/Google unilaterally included contact tracing API’s (software hooks)…[Read more]

    • GOOD TO KNOW. I keep mine in a Faraday bag and only pull it out to use or charge but it tells me it couldn’t download the upgrade because it wasn’t hooked up to the charger… DESPITE all my efforts to keep it from automatically downloading. Sounds like I am going to start using my ancient flip-phone again.

    • I’ve lived without an electronic leash (phone) for about 8 years now…and guess what, life is just fine without it…but even so, they need to know they get a big fat Nyet, Nein, No on “gestapo tracing” (let’s call it for what it is)

    • Seems old phones have a use again. Mine is from 2012. Mostly it is tucked away in a Faraday box. Rarely use the thing.

    On a related note, I sent Tim Cook from Apple an e-mail stating I could no longer support any of his mobile platforms. He DOES actually pay attention to them. In parts of the EU sentiment is running 70% plus against. I actually refused to update my mobile to allow for the inclusion of Tracing API’s. And I no longer travel with a mobile.

    Things are so out in the open, and blatantly intrusive now, that the prevailing attitude they seem to be displaying is founded on, 1. Pure Hubris 2. Openly Hostile Policy. We are witnessing a full on Spenglerian Decline and Fall of our Civilization at this point.

    • I keep repeating it. Either get rid of your “smartphone” or put it in a Faraday Bag until you absolutely need to look at it or make a call. Try NOT to use it away from your house as any trace of being near anyone who tests positive is zero. Despite the facts, you can’t convince people that the tests are invalid.

    By “Regular Feature” I meant to say that @KatieB is an excellent candidate for regularly scheduled interviews with yourself! As for the community participating, heck! we have 9 of Scarmoge that I know would love to participate! haha!

  • blakecosmos posted a new activity comment 5 years, 11 months ago

    This was outstanding. A close watching of the broadcast allowed for all sorts of insights and dot connecting to happen. Katie, you did an excellent job of being prepared, asking really interesting questions and allowing the Doctor to really get into the flow of your discussion really right from the top. I vote this become a regular feature!

    • It being a regular feature is entirely dependent on whether or not members want to do one.

    I went to a Lens Crafter’s and there was one person working…. so in general, the risks are low. Gotta see right!? The tracking thing is going to be highly problematic for them to execute. I don’t think most of these individuals hired to do this are going to be met with cookies and milk!
