“we’ve updated our privacy policy” starter pack
- getting innocent looking emails at nighttime
screenshots of emails(only header shown, with statusbar showing 9pm) from reddit and discord - only lists ways in which they violate your privacy, legally
- gigantic walls of text without a way to see before-after
screenshots of privacy policy from docusign and tumblr - always about using data to sell, or rain AI

“oh we think your privacy is worth nothing to us. So here, take this email with the bare minimum that we are legally required to provide. We would have never let you know of these changes if it was not legally required”
It’s also about making sure you can’t sue them, even if they did something wrong, even if they did it on purpose, even if they knew it was wrong when they did it.
Instead you must agree to “binding arbitration”, so that if you lose they get to learn what strategy works against customers, and if you win they get to learn what strategy doesn’t work against customers (but in any case the details cannot be shared with other customers).
Also, you can never participate in a class action suit, so even if they did do something wrong, on purpose, and you convinced a -judge- arbiter, you just get the $12 judgment, or whatever the value is of your actual damages. The corporation can keep the $12 they stole from each of their millions of other customers, who didn’t also start arbitration.
It is shocking that it is even legal
thanks for the insightful comment
i havd that innocent looking email from discord in my inbox right now lol
i don’t even use discord but still get those emails every year(I think someone accidentally made an account with my mail). it’s crazy that these companies update their privacy policies every year, refining and adding more convoluted clauses.
Lucky you! I have to use it, because that’s like the only platform where you can do a lot of stuff. But almost everything is implemented in a shitty way and I hate it. I wish Matrix (or Spacebar) became better and everyone started using them instead.
most disgusting is dropbox.its sharing your personal files with openai.
The AI thing has gotten too far.
it’s just the beginning
Its getting out of hand, I’m gonna have to get involved.
Make ‘em suffer!
We are all counting on you.
Please Hammer, don’t hurt 'em!
