    I was reading the blog post by the casino’s tech person and kept thinking to myself, “this is a casino; they may not be the most reliable narrator”. That said, CF was also stupid slow on taking down kiwi and stormfront, so they’re not great either.

    Both of them suck and this whole thing is amusing to me. Hopefully this will serve to improve CF’s behaviour.

    TikTok OBJECTIVELY collects far lesser data than Big Tech apps and services

    This is not true for a number of reasons, first being that once the data gets sent to a Chinese server, it’s gone. It’s like a void. Those “data collections analysis” can speculate, but they truly have no idea what happens with that data. Another reason that TikTok is as bad as Instagram, is that they farmed all the data from the in-app browser. Every click, scroll, everything.

    You can argue that they have a different approach to data farming, and they do: they try and rope you in, trick you into giving them your data. But it’s demonstrable wrong to say that they collect less data. I wouldn’t say they collect more data than typical west social media platforms, but I think it’s disingenuous to say they’re somehow better.

    If it’s within your financial means, please donate to Yuzu

    Are you absolutely joking? I’m not donating one cent to those clowns. I hate Nintendo and corporations with a passion, but Yuzu coding their emulator to support an un-release game – and making money off of it – is obviously the most illegal shit. There’s literally no way for emulating a pre-release game to be legal – how would you legally obtain a ROM of that? They did this to themselves. They’re going to way of Bowser rather than other emulators.

    Edit: Oh would you look at that, looks like Yuzu settled and is paying Nintendo 2.4 million dollars. That’s weird for a “”“non-profit open source project”“” to do.
