When you remember the anti-vax movement

I first reblogged this in January, and here my ass is in March 2020 self-quarantined at home.

THIS POST DID NOT AGE WELL

This post was prophetic

I think back to these memes everyday. And they did, indeed, not age well.

Thanks, I hate it

Of course the kiddie porn Instagram doesn’t violate the terms and services

Protecting this one as well, looks like these websites use shoutouts to groom kids.

Not a single fucking one was breaking community guidelines

They’re literally using intersectional leftist speak to groom children.

If y’all see this shit, report it to organizations like the FBI, the Internet Watch Foundation, or the Internet Crimes Hotline. Websites like instagram don’t do shit about pedophiles unless they have to, but these organizations will if you tell them what’s happening. Please reblog and share with others in case they run into shit like this.

We should opt into data tracking, not out of it, says DuckDuckGo CEO Gabe Weinberg

…one of my worries has always been … Many years ago, I wrote a story about Google trying to take over Yahoo search. I think I’ve talked about this before. It was going to get them 90 percent of the market at this point. Yahoo was still a substantively large search, did substantively large search business, and Microsoft was the third one. I was struck by, they can’t have 90 percent. Why isn’t our government stepping in to do something about that? That’s a ridiculous amount of market share.

So a line I wrote was, “At least Microsoft knew they were thugs.” Google pretends they’re all happy with their funny balls and their crazy eating habits and their weird clothes and stuff like that, but they’re still, as adorable as they are, they’re still just as evil as Microsoft was.

So I was making that point and I think it was Eric Schmidt who called me up and said, “That’s really mean, that you say we’re thugs.” And I said, “Well, I think you’re worse than thugs because you don’t know you’re thugs. And you are thugs, and therefore you’re worse than thugs.” And he was like, “We’re not thugs, we’re really good people. We’re really good people.” And I said, “I get that, but I can’t imagine a world where you have a company of this much power over information. What if someone … “

Of course it’s like three clicks to Hitler, but that’s what I said. It was like, “But what if Hitler ran Google? What if someone who wasn’t so nice ran Google?” And it was like, “Well, they don’t!” And I was like, “Yes, but what if they do?” And he said, “But they don’t!” So are you worried about the concentration of power in the hands of, again, a very small amount of people?

“What makes DuckDuckGo special is how aggressively it emphasizes privacy when it comes to your search habits. The company doesn’t store a single byte of your history, and its extension prevents you from being tracked elsewhere. Making the switch isn’t the only thing you should do to protect your online privacy, but it’s a significant – and I have to say cathartic – first step.”

Why You Should Ditch Google Search And Use DuckDuckGo

Nothing Can Stop Google. DuckDuckGo Is Trying Anyway.

This, in a nutshell, is DuckDuckGo’s proposition: “The big tech companies are taking advantage of you by selling your data. We won’t.” In effect, it’s an anti-sales sales pitch. DuckDuckGo is perhaps the most prominent in a number of small but rapidly growing firms attempting to make it big — or at least sustainable — by putting their customers’ privacy and security first. And unlike the previous generation of privacy products, such as Tor or SecureDrop, these services are easy to use and intuitive, and their user bases aren’t exclusively composed of political activists, security researchers, and paranoiacs. The same day Weinberg and I spoke, DuckDuckGo’s search engine returned results for 33,626,258 queries — a new daily record for the company. Weinberg estimates that since 2014, DuckDuckGo’s traffic has been increasing at a rate of “about 50 percent a year,” a claim backed up by the company’s publicly available traffic data.
