This long-form series of special reports, investigations, and shorter format feature updates goes deep with the privacy violations and overreach of modern consumer electronics, including Smart TVs and other devices. We’ll explore LG’s WebOS, LG Smart TV vulnerabilities and exploits, first-party ACR (automated content recognition) behaviors, and other concerns. Alongside that, we’ll dive deeper into ALPRs and Flock cameras as we fight their rollout in at least one small town. We’re also digging deep into the data exchange practices between large AI companies, looking into how data sucked into data centers can be exploited for training and profit.

    It may be initially inconvenient, but you can choose a bank that offers 2FA/TAN beyond the smartphone app.

    Not sure what healthcare apps you mean. There’s lots of categories, so won’t comment without clarification.

    Same for employers tbh. Would love an example. (Besides: work apps can’t be forced on your private phone in most places.)

    I live in “modern society” and do own a smartphone, but I’m aware that it’s a convenience, not a necessity.

      For you. For many people it is not. You’re projecting your personal experiences onto the rest of the world.
