What's up people.

I were listening to Cody's Co podcast today, and they were talking about Fitbit working with government ,to track people.

Here is the podcast:





And then by checking it on google, that actually turns out to be true.

what are you thoughts about this? Should't we all have full freedom , and full access to the device we purchase?

Freedom is an illusion, it is meant to be an illusion and it will always be an illusion. Absolute freedom is no better than total chaos.

Fitbit is already trash, this makes it top tier trash

We are in an insane age of data theft and control by corrupt governments.

Probably the best thing Yang has said in his meme of a candidacy is that all personal user data should be treated as private property.

Possibly the only time you will see me advocating for privatization lmao

Your phone already does this 24/7 by the way.

As @Time said, total freedom doesn't exist and it shouldn't exist for a functioning society. However, this does bring into question "to what extent should you have to sacrifice your freedom for faster advancement and security"
Just something to think about.

Wait what this isn't even about freedom though this is about privacy and surveillance. And the current structure of data surveilance and collection by governments and private entitites is absolutely out of line. I have a feeling that we will either look back on this period of time with absolute disgust, or we will have a completely orweillian technocratic future

Everyone with common sense knew Apple doesn't work with the government, one of the people they caught was jailed who had an iPhone which apple refused to unlock, because its none of government business even if it is illegal; Apple in a sense #respects personal privacy which most of America retards don't do. Therefore, Apple has every right to deny government access to their shit.

On the other hand, phones already do this, but a lot more extreme, so will it really make a difference if a fitbit does the same what almost every phone already does?

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not but apple also absolutely does have shady data collection just like any other company
Them having that one story where they refused to unlock a phone isn't proof that they never collect data.
