| ShapeShifter499 | hi | 23:34 |
|---|---|---|
| ShapeShifter499 | I came across the "ubuntu is spyware" argument today, how do you guys feel about this? | 23:34 |
| bluefox83 | ShapeShifter499: since you can change anything in ubuntu, including the whole amazon search thing and the function that sends your search statistics, it's a BS statement made by someone who clearly has no interest in ubuntu to begin with | 23:35 |
| bluefox83 | they clearly decided that since it comes out of the box with a feature they don't like, it must be bashed. instead of just realizing that you can get rid of it | 23:36 |
| hrnz | you can get rid of any spyware | 23:44 |
| hrnz | doesn't make spyware good | 23:44 |
| bluefox83 | doesn't make ubuntu itself spyware either | 23:45 |
| bluefox83 | otherwise windows and OSX would also be spyware | 23:46 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I'm feeling like going to debian due to all this, sure I can remove it now by purging a few packages or toggling it off in settings but could MORE of this be coming? | 23:46 |
| bluefox83 | eh, maybe...you might try mint though | 23:46 |
| bluefox83 | or just use gnome or xfce instead of unity...i use gnome | 23:46 |
| hrnz | ShapeShifter499: canonical could convert everything into proprietary projects | 23:47 |
| ShapeShifter499 | the thing is I like how unity looks | 23:47 |
| bluefox83 | i don't care for it... | 23:47 |
| bluefox83 | yay for rediscovering how to use basic commands in irssi >.> | 23:57 |
