I suspect there is plenty of data poisoning software development. However, most of it is private development for use in the lucrative business of click farming.
The World Federation of Advertisers estimates that ad fraud (which is data poisoning with extra steps) accounts for 10-30% of clicks, globally.
Data poisoning is part of my moral system. If a company asks me a personal question, I give them a slightly incorrect answer
I've been doing it since I started using the Internet, and it pays off. My information is all scrambled... It's still out there since it's all been leaked, but it's enough to make it hard to process my info
I am a CIS male and run the Flo app just to mess with their stats and tracking. You wouldn't believe how often my period is off!
I've never used an app to track, but as a teen my periods were so inconsistent that they would probably think I was pregnant and miscarrying every 3 months. There were times I didn't bleed for 3 months then bled for 2, for years. This led me to starting birth control years before I ever had sex for the first time. I definitely would have been on some watchlist if that took place today.
Luckily, after years of trying to stop birth control (and going right back into that weird bleeding cycle every time! >:[ wtf body) my new doctor agreed to do a hysterectomy! It was just recently done, so I'm still recovering, but I'm so fucking happy I never have to deal with periods and bc pills ever again!
Sorry for the novel lol
Congratulations! I'm wicked happy for you, Internet Stranger :) and hope you a smooth recovery.
Same! I had a pregnancy scare a few weeks ago, but I'm back on my period again with my nonexistent uterus. Phew.
I bled 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, and 21st of October. I plan on doing it backwards this month. My cup and non-existent uterus runneth over. I'm thinking of having a pregnancy scare next month sometime, just in time for the holidays.
In the civilized world it’s not even illegal to lie to the police (as a defendant).
