Even if you’re morally opposed to the various things this addresses, it is so immensely concerning and unwise to want a corporation to have this much control over your actions, daily life, and liberty.
I don’t think enough people talk about that.
This has been very obvious to a lot of people since mobile devices were originally invented. The notion that you are sold a product that you "own" but is still 100% controlled by the vendor - anyone who thought about it for more than a second knew that it would eventually come to this. Of course, nobody gave even that tiny amount of thought about it. Or they were too naïve to think that a corporation could ever be evil.
I miss the times when spyware was considered uncoool. Mobile devices are the undoubtedly the worst invention of the information age. (And social media is probably the second worst.)
Literally. Why should a corporation control when you wank?
I get that, but I don’t even mean it in that sense. A corporation should not have any control over what I do whatsoever unless I’m their employee.
And even if you are an employee, only in work related stuff and during business hours, the rest, get out of my life.
If there was a decent salary, I'd do it
I want them to ban porn so I feel dirty when I watch it.
I'm normally not one to kink shame, but I'm shaming you right now.
Shame me harder daddy
The only time a corporation should care, is when they are in the business of selling sex toys. Then it should only be in so far that you enjoy using their products and want to use them more.
Corporations should be pro sex or absolutely ambivalent. There's zero reason for them to be against it.
