You are correct, you also have the right to buy a different device that “may” not be listening.
I don't have the "ok google" listening feature turned on, so I have nothing to worry about. (though no guarantee they're still not recording/logging)

😄 Just so happens we do have chat functionality. However it’s not currently enabled. No it will not work with tapatalk. 😑

Blasphemy! I have a right to privacy even if I am plotting against the MARSH board members... :devilish:

I just don’t want them to know about all the AR15’s I’m building and when my Militia will mount up after they rig this election with all these fraudulent mail-in votes.

Honestly it’s more admin work for me, additional moderator work and I’m not sure how much it would be used. If enough people are interested I’m happy to enable it.

As always it’s most likely NOT Tapatalk compatible. But 90% of the forum features aren’t so not sure how much that matters.

Won’t matter much...

When Apple finally gets in the 21st century and allows mobile safari web push notification tapatalk will be dead.

Speaking of nefarious reasons..

Everything anyone has ever typed into a google search box has been saved forever.
That shouldn’t be a real concern unless your hiding something? 🤷🏻‍♂️

That seems like not a great way of looking at privacy.. just because I have nothing to hide doesn’t mean I have drop my pants whenever someone of “authority” wants to make sure I have nothing to hide. Siri is turned off exactly for that reason. I have nothing to hide and I couldn’t imagine someone being interested in my mundane existence but... Siri is turned off for the same reason I don’t use FB. They are taking who you are and monetizing you whether you like it or not. That type of passive data collection in a very subtle yet aggressive way is the very definition of “nefarious”. Couple that with AI and what that is bringing to the game, things get uglier pretty quick. Some people may not have a problem with a machine knowing moreabout you than you know about yourself.. able to anticipate your next decision before you make it is not a goalpost I want to accelerate towards.

I guess if we are all going to be bombarded with ads, popups, spam and so on anyway... id rather it be targeted to what my needs are rather than something Im not interested in. but everyone has there own opinion.

I guess I get kind skiddish(?) when I am chilling and I think I need to do something and a Comercial comes on for the thing I am thinking of.. once or twice coincidence.. but all the time? I think not. That’s why I wear my tinfoil hat where ever I go. 😱🤪

Sounds like they are already listening to you 🤷🏻‍♂️
We got this thread all off track now... let’s get back to “who hates tapatalk”? Lol
