Birds of a feather got to stick together.

My take is two fold: 1- Marketing over selling their product (common practice) 2- The “always listening” devices are mainly their Smart Remotes that have a microphone built in.
#2 Seems the most likely as is a device fully in their control and can pull as much ad marketing / information gathering details from it as they want.
Agreed. I used to be able to rely on adding “reddit” to my Google searches to get relevant and insightful information. That still works today (soon after the exodus), but the information there will slowly age out of relevance. By the time they figure that out it’ll be to late for them to pull out.
Thank you for shopping for the source, and as others have said it’s not too hard to use your favorite search engine to find current reputable sources.
One that you can look into right away is: https://www.moneygeek.com/living/states-most-reliant-federal-government/
But please do your own research and don’t rely on a meme site alone… 🙂
Thanks for the link, but it still looks relevant - see @ickplant@lemmy. world post.

Of course I haven’t played it in 30 years so I might be a tad rusty now even if I have all the gaming upgrades. 😁
But a fine of only $5,500? It’s apparently profitable to be a BAD spy, too
My opinion: the fine should be AT LEAST 2x (if not 10x) what the bribes were. And not dismissible in bankruptcy.
