But isn't that assault?

Can someone explain to me how this person is different than other politicians?

Domestic surveillance is no joke. The government can literally compel companies to grant them access to your online accounts.

Thank you for saying this! Sure, that AI-assisted categorization feature in your Google Photos account is cool, but it means letting this tech see files.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

No, we do not need Big Data. The time, money, environmental consequences, and privacy risks aren't worth it.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

What about Canadian options?

000

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

I was going to suggest Sync before realizing you mean literal clouds.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Canadians may be friendly but they don't screw around when it comes to privacy. A form of respect additional to apologizing for everything.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

That's right. Did you know the government can even compel your cloud storage provider to hand your files over for investigation? Your data can and will be used against you in today's reality.

010

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

So can pretty much any company you store files with. We need to stop giving our privacy away in unecessarily confusing account terms and conditions.

Glad to see you're on the same page with my interests as a consumer. Sadly, most apps and the companies behind them aren't. My cloud storage provider, Sync.com, is a rare exception.

Another day, another reminder of why end-to-end encryption should be standard in every online platform.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Does it work on people?

000

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Newsflash: this applies everywhere online. Think you have a strong password for your personal photo vault? The company that offers it could get in at any time.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Awesome work! What do you think it needs to compete with Google? If that's even possible.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

'Hey, that's a nice folder of family photos, be a real shame if we convinced you to pay us to keep and access it'.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Unfortunately, we're all indirectly supporting this. If you use any kind of product from a Big Tech company, whether it be cloud storage or email, you're filling their pockets.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Does anyone else read the irony here?

000

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Unfortunately, so is pretty much everyone with a recognizable name.

Its funny how everyone's idea of heaven is a complete untouched paradise, crystal clear waters, lush green forests, enough food for everyone, classless, moneyless, stateless, a Utopia of peace, unity and happiness. But here on earth it's considered a leftist ideology.

True! The average citizen is victim to so much as a result of this collusive system. It's so corrupt, and people don't know or care until they've been screwed over firsthand. Take government access requests, for example. Big Tech companies will willingly hand over personal account data when asked.

020

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Hate to break it to you... so can every other app, website, and even seemingly-private cloud storage platform out there.

000

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Interesting. For those of us who won't bother reading the article, could you explain how exactly this law is so revolutionary?

000

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

It doesn't just deserve to go bankrupt... it needs to actively atone for everything it's done.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

PSA: Your risk of an 'account takeover' isn't limited to attacks like this. Lax privacy laws permitting government access requests make every consumer vulnerable to third-party prying. #Cybersecurity #Privacy #PrivacyRights #PersonalData #Hack #InfoSec

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Glad to see it, literally.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

It comes back to consumers as well. If you're paying for products by Big Tech companies you're contributing to the problem.

010

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Right? I'm happy to not have to read something about being spied on or exploited for once.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Things are getting bad for Canada, too. Have you heard about its new privacy law? Government overreach at its finest.

000

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

True. Just look at their cloud storage scheme. Everything is about making money.

My interview: “I came to this country as an infant and became a U.S. citizen,” Roswell Encina said. “So sitting there, on the Fourth of July, I couldn’t help but think about the promise of America and the work still required to protect it.” www.advocate.com/news/people/...

Man in viral D.C. Metro photo says he was ‘terrified’ as masked white nationalists surrounded him

Roswell Encina, a gay Filipino American civic leader, said the Fourth of July encounter with Patriot Front was frightening and impossible to separate from American history.

Interested to see a Canadian's take on this...

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

Good for you. I highly encourage switching cloud storage platforms as well.

110

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

Yes! This and blind cloud storage providers.

000

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

This is a problem. It shouldn't be opt-out. Nothing privacy-related should be nowadays. Google is well-aware the average consumer doesn't know their rights nor the way it violates them.

hordoc2 @hordoc2.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

It doesn't even matter whether footage can leave the car in this specific case. Meta glasses are already out recording real-world interactions everywhere.

Curious to hear your arguments on why self-hosting is the right move. I currently use Sync.com. It comes at a cost, sure, but delivers just as much - if not more - value in terms of scalability.

Feel-good theater. The reality is there's no true privacy killswitch nowadays. Big tech companies are giving into government overreach attempts left right and center. What would make data brokers any more accountable?
