Literal Hostage Situation
(feddit.org)
Alt Text:
Google photos on ios is literally a hostage situation. Remove key functionalities like copying an image or editing an image unless you give them full unrestricted access to your entire photo library. (The holy grail of surveillance capitalism data). Data extortion masquerading as a service.
I also am in the real world. I don't need banking apps on my phone. WhatsApp is a terrible choice, so inwouldn't use it. You don't need these things you want these things.
How many people have you converted over to signal? I’ve done a whole 6. And before you say SMS, only if you live in a country where RCS is a thing, since group chats are a thing. I can do a lot, but it’s irrelevant if other people around me don’t.
Some have gone with signal, a group of people decided to do video chats with jisti. My family is all over the world so I understand why SMS is not an option.
But again, I don't care. Whatsapl is not an option. If people don't do it, well that is their problem. I never will need to communicate with someone badly enough to use WhatsApp.
Not that hard.
