Messages can contain personally identifiable information and they very often do. You cannot anonymize messages by just deleting the user name and email address of the sender. With Reddit the difference is that it is public in the first place while with direct messages you have anexpectations of privacy. But of course how things turn out in court is another matter.
YouTube once did a genius and really nice move: Paying the video authors. They realized that treating the people who create the works – that are the entire reason why people use the platform – well and creating an incentive for that work is smart and a good way to grow the platform.
But that time is long gone. YouTube is the monopoly in the market now. They ruin everything that was good about YouTube. They brought the adpocolypse and only pay video authors for videos the content of which they deem friendly to their advertisements business and easy to sell to advertisers based on a completely arbitrary broken automatic system that enforces self censorship on the video authors. All other videos that are still vital to the platform do not get any of the money they make of the viewers the demonetized videos keep on the platform.
They started putting ads on videos that the author did not choose to monetize completely breaking with their system of sharing their revenue with the people who create the basis for that.
While they impose strict arbitrary self censorship on the video authors who want a cut of the revenue their videos allowed to generate they allow a flood of scams and other illegitimate and inappropriate content for advertisers.
They removed the dislike button making the platform much worse for the users just to appeal to advertisers even more.
TikTok is a cancer that always does this. It is a tool for censorship, propaganda and population control. You should never use TikTok. It is extremely unethical to do so.
You should get no information from TikTok. That is all there is to say about it. This is even much more true for medical information.
That is not the topic at discussion.
If you get your medical information from TikTok you really have far bigger problems.
GrapheneOS is the go torecommendations.
Note that the admins of your instance can see absolutely everything in your account. Social media is not private and Lemmy is no exception to this.
That’s all nice but their lowest paid plan also just tripled in price (while getting more features).
The entire point of E2EE encryption is that you do not have to trust the server.
Presumably end-to-end encrypted. Do not trust any of them. There is no good cloud-based password manager.
Bitwarden is open source and audited: https://bitwarden.com/help/is-bitwarden-audited/
Strange is a rather euphemistic word for it.
Hope this gains some traction. We really need to move away from Reddit.
How is this connected to Bromite or GrapheneOS? Do you have anything to back up those claims?
Completely in that they do not delete it. Regarding the legal aspect I am not a lawyer.
