Bothers me that much of this data has been collected without explaining what its intended purpose is. All those captchas that want you to pick out cars or bikes etc, Pokemon game that wants you to scan locations for free items... It simply never occurred to me that these were actually just ways to train AI surreptitiously
Never? They were very clear about the first captchas being used to train OCR, way back in like 2010.
Every day that I play Pokemon Go, I'm aware that I'm making a Faustian bargain for motivation to take a walk in exchange for my privacy.
have fun when the "invaders" are roaming your streets and know exactly where you are because you showed them your walk for 10 years. big rip pika pika hot though amirite
how exactly did I imply I'm above anything? I am referring to people in the US giving their GPS/location data freely and continually moron. you're actually braindead
