Seize the Memes of Production

An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.

Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.

It’s possible that your phone knows what people you are near to. If those people have been searching for something, your phone might be able to make recommendations from that data.

It is horrifying. Phones have access to so much other cheap and easy data that I think the phone companies would see processing all of that audio as an unnecessary expense.

And so that's why I suspect it's a red herring. I could easily be wrong though.
