An extensibility system called mods, which is a plugin with a new type of hook that we call function hook?

I can't tell if this is real, or you are making fun of overengineered AI solutions.

Is this real?

Great idea, we could also have a standard in browsers that signals you don't want to be tracked. We could call it the "Do not track" header, short for DNT.

It would make sure no websites track you.

I may not be the one that came up with a thought originally, but I can echo it because I agree with it.

I disagree, the article was straightforward and easy to read.

Are there any precedents that companies got sued on this? Not that I doubt you, but it would be nice to see if it actually has teeth or not.

>If we lived in a sane world, people would simply pay for what they use

This is some proper, indoctrinated, corporate bootlicker mentality.

95% of the phones on the market will spy on you, send your data back to the mothership, and they will sell your data to 3rd parties, and they cost $1400-$2000. You pay for the phone which is not even yours after the purchase, and then you still get ads, spied on, and your data sold. Google has a very large monetary incentive already to protect their customers and they do jack shit about the malware/adware in the play store.

TVs are even worse. LG TVs were just found to spy on you and nearby devices while they are off. Do you think those TVs are free? No, they also cost a fortune.

The current state of the world is that even if you pay you will get ads, spying, and malware. Get your head out of your ass.

Achieving something rather than nothing is obviously better, full stop. Bringing dead parents into this is just self help book literature.

Most people's existence are very strongly tied to their job. Not being able to pay basic utilities and food just the first examples.

Obviously, nobody is going to blip out of existence when their layoff notice is signed, everyone knows this and nobody claimed that. If you stepped down from your philosophical post humanist highchair a bit, you would realize that.

No search, no making space in an existing page, no moving text around, cumbersome to take it with you everywhere, unlike a phone.

You don't really need most of this, or it can be solved simply by thinking and remembering.

By that logic you don't really need paper notes either.
