N ew S ecurities A ppliances??

i feel a little uneasy about the thought that yeah, i may not have any privacy at all, and the words i’m currently typing could perhaps be being tracked by some unknown third party, at the very least the government is tracking that at this point in time i am typing these words out on the internet in the way they are tracking my metadata, but like i’m pretty actively aware of this fact, and this smart technology kind of popped up rather late in my life

by that i mean the generation that was immediately born into the accessibility of this technology, playing kids games on a tablet at an early age, using social media at an age younger than they’re supposed to (like “technically” facebook starts at 13) is also being immediately born into this lack of privacy without anyway of understanding what exactly they’re doing before it’s far too late

like something that comes starkly into mind occured the other day when i was hanging out with some extended family and my cousin in year 7 was showing off how she was using this app where should could see the location of her parents and her cousins (and vice-versa) by simply providing reciprocal permission to track her phones location and their phones location, and this baffled me. because it extended this lack of privacy to be provided in family, where her mum can just on the fly track where her daughter is, which just kind of seems like something that is at the very least peculiar.
