| philballew_ | All these Amazon add things are cool, but I have no use when them when redbox is cheaper. | 21:55 |
|---|---|---|
| philballew_ | but bkerensa good thoughts on it | 21:56 |
| bkerensa | I think my biggest concern is the lack of a privacy policy covering how search data and geoip data is shared with a third-party | 21:57 |
| philballew_ | so they can see i live in san diego? | 21:57 |
| philballew_ | or even my shipping address? | 21:58 |
| bkerensa | no | 21:58 |
| bkerensa | they can see your ip | 21:58 |
| bkerensa | and look up what city you live in | 21:59 |
| philballew_ | ah, and then see my school ip and have my address | 21:59 |
| bkerensa | and depending on how your does reverse dns could even find what neighborhood | 21:59 |
| bkerensa | so IP + Search result = treasure trove | 21:59 |
| bkerensa | it would be like libraries releasing your book checkouts | 21:59 |
| philballew_ | my school has a static ip thats registered to them permanently iirc | 21:59 |
| philballew_ | maybe not now that they switched to ipv6 this year | 22:00 |
| bkerensa | plus when the data gets to Amazon... Canonical loses control as to how it is handled | 22:00 |
| philballew_ | can I buy stuff from the dash? | 22:00 |
| philballew_ | i might actually use it and not just type programname & into the shell | 22:01 |
| bkerensa | philballew: no you get sent to Amazon or other third party | 22:01 |
| philballew_ | oh, so why would i not just go to my browser since I probably already have it open? | 22:02 |
| bkerensa | idk ask the unity team | 22:03 |
| philballew_ | I troll enough as it is | 22:04 |
