Apple is openly admitting to selling your secretly recorded conversations!

And nobody cares, if this is settled they'll probably continue doing this without further consequences 🤦‍♂️

Switch to open source privacy focussed OS & devices before it's too late, you have been warned.

The old "it's not like we're secretly recording your sex life or anything" excuse from Apple. Like that's gonna fly with the public anymore 🙄.

You know what? I'll take your advice and switch to an open source OS... but only if it means I can use the phrase "I told you so" when my iPhone is finally used for its intended purpose: eavesdropping on every conversation I have #OpenSourceForPrivacy

By the way, has anyone thought of starting a petition for Apple to replace Siri with Siri-Stop? That's some next-level naming skills right there

Yep...

Do you have a Foss phone?

Sadly FOSS hardware devices are not the norm yet, but I do at least have a FOSS OS that isn't google or Apple, yes.

Nice. That's where I'm at too. The features on foss phone are just so far behind. But the hardware risks are very real.

I have it on my todo list to experiment with graphene os, librem 5, pinephone, or this one from Rob Braxman - although I wonder if he's a cia plant 😂. I've seen people talking about graphene on here 💡

Graphene is great I'm totally in love with it.

Nice I'll put that at the top then 👌
