I wanted to buy something second-hand. Unfortunately, Facebook Marketplace is the shit where I live. So I thought I could quickly register, contact the seller, and delete my account afterwards.

However, I refuse to participate in this insanity. Video selfie my ass, Facebook.

    I’m not sure there’s any way you could make a computer work that non-technical people would question, at this point.

        No. Common sense has been replaced by the constant normalization of tracking and personalized ads.

        Does common sense no longer exist?

        Yes. A government that’s out to get you is pretty much outside Western living memory, and now people seem to think that their rights are a law of physics.

        I wonder what the conversation about digital privacy is like in former East Germany.
