Is the implication here that folks would prefer for Intel to keep employees on the payroll for a loss, and make up for that loss by slashing dividends?
I think that would be criminally poor management of a company.
Maybe some econ gurus can school me.
It would be trivially easy to add privacy any number of ways if they didn't insist on tracking the users and logging that info.
They could even track it and just not make it available by web. Or require 2FA. Not exactly a nation-state level attack being described here.
People have just become accustomed to not caring about privacy and so that's what we get.
Every city had a fine system using cash/coins or cards you could fund at a kiosk by cash coin or card. Those cards were anonymous.
Now everyone has to be fancy and link credit cards and phones to accounts for every activity of daily life.
This comment is the perfect balance of sarcasm and valid analogy
Not sure how serious the post. Anyone know more?
Hard to believe these days. Do you have a blog or publish any list of your alternatives? Particularly difficult around smartphone and apps like email/calendar/photos etc isn't it?
Which smartphone do you use and what makes that company different from Apple/Samsung?
Everyone complaining or saying leave but nobody talking about alternatives that solve some of the problems. Mastodon exists. Nostr exists. BlueSky kind of exists.
