Pikachu used war crime!

Niantic Spatial – a spin-off company from Niantic – announced its partnership with Vantor, a company that specialises in spatial detection software for drones, including those used by some militaries, in December.

…

Vantor announced in February a deal with the US Army of up to US$217m for training software.

If we don’t read and understand EULAs, Terms of Service, and Privacy Policies, we might help the goverment kill people.

it’s somehow legal to make a 20 page contract for a digital service or game that states it can be updated at anytime somewhere in it and because you are using it you agree to the terms and opt-in to any updated terms.

There is no government watchdog to protect consumers from this and if there were it only takes one rogue unconstitutional action for it to be dismantled and probably never get challenged in the legal system. The closest we have are advocacy groups like the EFF and they depend on people reading, using critical thinking, and giving a fuck.

When the devs collaborate with the government and military or spread propaganda, games are political, all aspect of life is. I think it always was. playing a game can now mean children get bombed. I think the sooner we come to these realizations the better.

Data can be retained and used retroactively in anyway the corporations that owns the data seem fit. That apparently means also selling that data to military contractors or using it to train models used for the military.

Did anyone guess that a pokemon game could be used to kill? I wonder how much blood money nintendo/pokemon company made off this?

This is not enshittification, but weaponization, and we all need to pay attention because this will not be the last time it happens.

That’s the spirit.

We are in another middle east quagmire, harming civilians, and committing war crimes under the orders of a Republican child rapist felon – maybe by chance

Here is a few I can think of that are a bit similar

• Sable
• Bastion
• Planet of Lana
• A Short Hike
• Spirit of the North
• TASOMACHI: Behind the Twilight
• AER Memories of Old
• The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Btw, you should definitely try Elden ring if you haven’t already

How about arresting pedophiles starting with those connected to Epstein?

I prefer foraging in the forest.

Same standard means we make noise when we don’t like something.

They didn’t use the The Schutzstaffel Nazi symbol in the German mailers because they thought it would violate hate speech laws.

There was no reason to use 2 of those runes together.

Tell me then, why would they use 2 side by side. And why not show those symbols to Germans?

I find LibreWolf to be the better option for privacy, I never have an issue with rendering.

Neither the “Doppelrune” (Doublerune) nor the “Siegrune/Sig-Rune” (Victory rune) are historic runes and were created 1929 by Walther Heck. The “Siegrune” itself wasn’t even inspired by the germanic “sowilo” rune (ᛋ), Walther Heck himself stated, that he created it, as he disliked the soft form of the “S” in the latin alphabet and wanted to provide an alternative to the “Fraktur” style that was commonly used in germany at that time.

This ᛋ is “sowilo/sigel/sol”, the germanic rune for sun

This ϟ is the “Siegrune”, created 1929 by Walther Heck as an alternative to the letter “S” and was used by the Nazis

This ϟϟ is the “Doppelrune”, also a creation by Walther Heck and used as a symbol for the SS

The Schutzstaffel is purely a Nazi symbol.

There was no reason to use 2 of those runes together, especially when not using it in German mailers because they thought it would violate hate speech laws.

Either you are trying to gaslight people into thinking that ᛋᛋ is not a symbol of hate and genocide, or you are extremely ignorant.

Sometimes corporations lie.

It’s not being unhinged to say you don’t like something. And the way that Mozilla is embracing “AI” is not welcomed.

Mozilla should be scrutinized, even if Firefox is currently the best option.

I think the only thing keeping them inline is loud community backlash everytime they make one of those misssteps.
