    Is that the same as the misnomer or fallacy that privacy is dead?

          PHP: Facebook, Dream Market, Silk Road(darkweb)

          Ruby on Rails: Github, Airbnb

          Django: Bitbucket

          These technologies can compile into websites in themselves, but they are usually used as backend

    I use Edge on my work laptop because:

    • Vertical Tabs
    • Logs into my SSO account
    • Leaks info from my computer like a sieve (it’s my employer’s info, and they don’t deserve privacy)

    I don’t think I’ve had an issue on Firefox other than some sites saying “unsupported browser,” which is really the site’s fault.

      I found Firefox to be much slower than Chrome… 10 years ago. Now, not only is it just as fast, it’s a much better experience all around.

    my guess is its just another flavour of cope.

    imo likely because recent history has began to undermine the delusions which were propping up the former flavour.

    A lot of people have just accepted surviellance for convienience.

    People close to me get TSA precheck even though it requires fingerprinting, because “the government already has your fingerprints”

    But if they did, why would they need to ask your for them?

      Sorry for devil’s advocate here because I agree with you but hypothetically the answer would be verification. ie., Google already has your password, so why would they need to ask you for it when you log in?

      If you’ve gone to jail they totally have your prints already. Fingerprints are identifying information for such a thing. How else would they do that?

      Depending on what people do, the government already has their fingerprints.

      Personally, I work around schools so I had to get a background check and fingerprinted for that. I also am licensed to handle explosives, both federally and at the state level. I been fingerprinted for that. I’ve gone through TSA for hazmat endorsement on a commercial driver’s license. That needed fingerprints and a background check.

      Getting fingerprinted to get through airport security is the least of my privacy concerns.

      But my threat model isn’t the TSA. They aren’t a concern of mine, although I do opt out of their facial recognition.

      I am concerned with internet surveillance, corporate surveillance, and communication surveillance.

        When I got fingerprinted for my classified security clearance I told them that due to my psoriasis my fingerprints were blank due to the thickened skin. They said it didn’t matter so I have a set of blank prints in the fed files.
