I think the law should be changed; copyright law is kind of a mess, but I don't know how to make it better. It would also need to be changed in a way that's fair, which these companies absolutely do not want; fairness would mean the end of laws like the DMCA.

I learned to moisten the eye of the needle instead of the thread. It makes threading a needle way easier. Also, making sure the thread is cleanly cut at the end and not fraying.

Thank you for mentioning that. I am able to see it by clicking through to the post in the Europe community.

Even after refreshing, I still can't see your additions. 🙁

Yeah Google claims it's not recording, storing or being sent the conversations or sharing them with anyone, and that this is all done 'on-device'.

The thing is, I don't trust them. At all.

Maybe the terms and conditions will silently change. Maybe their definitions of "recording" and "save" will change. Maybe they're blatantly lying and are willing to pay a fine if they get caught.

Google's whole business model is harvesting and selling people's data, so I have to assume the worst intentions.

A gram of prevention is worth 1.6 decagrams of cure.

Exactly. And unless RCS with e2ee is made equally available to companies other than Google and is implemented by the carriers, RCS will continue to be a monopolistic data-harvesting grift.

I'm surprised there is not more outrage directed at Google over this.

No, please explain it to me!

That's quite misogynistic.

Ruin her body?

That's incredibly misogynistic.

And there are no better camera hardware else where

Sony and their Xperia phones would like a word.

I had trouble with it too. The site told me to disable all the privacy settings on my browser, at which point I simply decided that the whole thing was no longer worth my time and data.
