Avast fined $16.5 million for ‘privacy’ software that actually sold users’ browsing data in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

**"A joint investigation by Vice News and PCMag in January 2020 revealed that Jumpshot was selling the highly sensitive web browsing data to companies, including Google, Yelp, Microsoft, Home Depot, and consulting giant McKinsey. The reports found Jumpshot was also selling access to its users’ click data, including the specific web links that its users were clicking on.

At the time, Avast had more than 430 million active users worldwide. Jumpshot said it had access to data from 100 million devices.

Avast shuttered its Jumpshot subsidiary days following the joint Vice-PCMag report."**

sounds like bullshit, if the manager wasn't being asked personally about "the missing nice waiter" even once, she most likely wouldn't be taking all that much stock in a couple yelp reviews, and when was the last time you heard about a waiter "getting a raise", lol

Imagine purposefully giving a mewling quim like JACK direct access to your data ever again, just to sell it all to Elon Musk, again, again. People are in fact, sheep.

Oh great – now Facebook and Instagram want your private data to train Meta's latest AI pipe dream in c/[email protected]

When it was shown that Zuck was actively undermining American Democracy, without care for consequence, I deleted my Facebook account, have never used it's messenger, don't Insta or META anything ever. Same with Twitter, I mean, why would you choose to contribute anything to these monsters .... so you can stay in touch with high school friends you never chat, call or speak to?

Bluesky is finally open to everyone. But will anyone come? We ask its CEO. in c/[email protected]

I'm gonna ride my S10 until the wheels come off. Without expandable removable storage in new models, and the phone working as well as it did day one, literally zero reason not to keep my $800 in my pocket for another couple years at least
