People who don’t care that they are being spied on/ having their data harvested by facebook, instagram, whatsapp, google, amazon, oracle etc… are the same ones who pirate without a vpn or i2p. I can’t stand this “so what if they have my data?” attitude. You ask anyone if they would feel comfortable leaving their car unlocked in town, or the front door of their house open at night and theeen they suddenly care about privacy and security.
Piracy is a crime. It might be the most common and socially acceptable (right after not fully stopping at an empty stop street), but it is still technically illegal and the govt can go after you any time they want to.
Please please please do not go around advertising your cam-quality bootlegs.
True. However afaik it’s because otherwise some stupid 5 yo kids can get into cars and roll over their siblings if they manage to release the parking brake. And because nobody wants to clean that up, they made it illegal to leave your car unlocked. I don’t know if there are more reasons. I don’t like too many regulations, but i kind of get this one.
“Think of the children” classic.
Personally I leave my car unlocked because the most valuable thing in there is the windows, and I don’t want someone busting them open just to find nothing and foot me the bill.
