  • From what I’ve seen of real world examples, not “what if the car had 5 cats in it and the person on the crosswalk had a stroller full of 6 cat, swerve into a barricade?”, telsa cars just release control of the autonomous controls to the person behind the wheel a few seconds before impact so the driver is fully liable.





  • I think it was always the same psychology of making a number go up makes people get dopamine or something. Otherwise, it was a system to try and filter out bots used for astroturfing that I felt didn’t really do a good job. There were always plenty of karma farming bots that would literally just copy and paste a different comment to create a fake post history.





  • Same as reddit, same as Facebook, same and Twitter. It’s the same as any website. Anything you post is most certainly getting scraped to create a profile on you. Whether that is for nefarious purposes for just to better serve you ads is irrelevant.

    There is no privacy to anything you post on the internet to public forums.

    Just look at the effort that went into making “work from home” viable back in 2020. The fediverse is not a unique case of being a “privacy nightmare”.

    For fun, try to “dox yourself” by searching on Google from a different IP and computer from what you normally use for your name, usernames, etc. to see what information is freely available to the public.

    tldr: practice good opsec!
