way too many italics in that article

a fantastic name wasted on this piece ..

headline fever

you're making sense but none of us went through what these people have gone through

If you look at the slideshow, cox media group doesn't claim to be the ones harvesting the data, only to be processing it using AI to then provide that aggregate information to advertisers. Which makes sense, they literally have no means to directly collect voice data from you

Also no offense but, I thought lemmy users were a little bit better than this whole "read headline, make assumptions, storm to comments" thing that Reddit loves to do

Ngl man I'm not buying it. With all the protections in mobile OSes against this exact kind of thing it straight up doesn't seem possible

ngl i needed to hear it

Broad and sweeping L coming from California. What the hell is this man

provide sources for all of that and ill bounce and moan on it with you

Clearly not enough people were. I'm taking this as a W for the common man

how the fuck are we ever coming back from this

Yeah that headline is frankly ridiculous

Google’s official Pixel review program for publications like The Verge requires no such stipulations. (And, to be clear, The Verge would never accept such terms, in accordance with our ethics policy.)

So then, what is Team Pixel, exactly? Officially, it’s a program handled by PR agency 1000heads that seeds early units to influencers and superfans to drum up interest as brand ambassadors. While Google partners with 1000heads, it doesn’t directly run the program, and there are distinct differences from the traditional reviews program. For example, journalists and influencers in the official reviews program often get briefed and given products under embargo before or during an event. Team Pixel participants get the devices shortly after launch but before the public — all in exchange for some coverage on social media. For smaller creators, this can be a big leg up in terms of access.

extremely critical context here, this is kind of a non story tbh

King told WXYZ that he spoke to the girl’s parents and offered to be a mentor.

this guy really thinks he's smartest, wisest guy in the room doesn't he

i get we're on lemmy so this sentiment might be amplified, but just a reminder that most people unfortunately do not give a shit about this sort of thing

What does being classified as a pornographic person entail

Classifying transpeople as "pornographic"

??

anyone else getting an error on that site

I was mostly joking about the context of the accident like, if someone asks why im wearing a cast, "sprained my ankle jumping into the sprinkle pool at the ice cream factory" would def get stuck in my throat coming out

even if he's 100% in the right id be wayyy too embarrassed to sue over something like this
