Comment on If AI was all it was cracked up to be, it wouldn't be shoved in your face 24/7
Cabbage_Pout61@lemmy.world 6 days agoThat’s not the problem, as long as one lives in a society, one is bound to participate in it, willingly or not.
If you do not use, someone else will, and sooner or later you will consume something made by said person.
Just “not using it yourself”, won’t cut it.
Uhh… I am sorry. What you said means nothing to me.
We all live in this world, yes. Society is unavoidable. However, you can choose to what extent you engage with it. There is a minimum, stop using tech ~ go out into the world and meet people, create physical things etc. – nobody will stop you when you act with integrity and love.
True, I don’t think that applies to a FOSS centric community like lemmy tho, nothing wrong with that, it’s just that I think that the wrong expectations are in place, I could be wrong ofc

Also “Just don’t use” iOS, Android, any Microsoft anything, any Apple anything, all social media, television, print, and most other media, Adobe software, Google products, even freaking DuckDuckGo…
How about these companies just learn what consent is and let me disable it forever without asking again every time I open something? “Yes” and “Maybe later” is not a choice.
(Yes I am aware of FOSS alts, that is not the discussion.)
