If memory serves, deflock is effectively just a front end of all the data amassed on open street maps for these types of cameras and such.

Im not sure what the situation is of course, but it’s worth knowing that as long as that data remains, deflock can be rebuilt to show just the camera data once again.

Obviously though, id prefer that to not be the case and maybe the device hosting just needed a nap or upgrade.

But the shareholders! Or some such nonsense.

Succinct.

Agreed.

So the mullvad browser uses leta as its search proxy obviously.

What will go in its place / what is recommended to be used with its browser instead?

“if you can, dont support the companies that are causing the problem youre trying to support a fix for”

“nEvEr GoOd EnOuGH!!!”

Doing more to make a bad situation better SHOULD never be enough until the bad situation is over. Do what you’re capable of, not ‘do the bare minimum because its good enough’.

Cant donate? Go work to deliver/serve food.

If the places giving food have all the food, but have a line. They need more people handing it out. That’s “free” to do.

Did they have to go to the police evidence locker and come back before they found it like they did with luigi?

Damn that’s wild. As a side note, they make some nice paints that can help seal the solar panel from anything harming it like uv rays.

Verymuchso indeed. Theres cameras on the BACK of our traffic lights at every corner in town too that arent on this list.

But it helps navigating backroads/country and im not in a huge city so that’s good enough.

I do wave at the residential houses as i dodge a camera at a corner street.

So if theres 40k on this list for the US and apl this is missing, it’s at least double that number for sure.

If you have to drive, it’s nice to know where the cameras are at.

Obviously it doesnt help if youre going anywhere near a town center or highway or etc, but i can get groceries from a local place without passing any if i path it right which is nice to know.

I think it comes down to what you said, but for the obscenely rich.

A pro has failed more than a beginner has tried. The obscenely rich have been told ‘yes’ more than the poor have had the opportunity to even ask questions.

You can learn this type of failed behavior just like a bad habit, and boy howdy is he the master of it.

Glad im not the only one. We’ll suffer together i guess.

Yeah, the “let no one else use it” portion of my comment is what i meant when you say “patent owners are generally more than happy to license their tech”

I hope ford doesn’t.

And yes while patents dont grant exclusivity it gives a company the option to try and argue that a competitors version isnt novel enough. In the USA, where ford is from, patent law screwery is abounds if you have enough money. Of which Ford is backed by the US government.

Im not here to point out whether or not the patent is the issue. The problem is the spying and selling of personal data. If ford proceeds in a way that limits that exposure to the rest of car manufacturers then fantastic, even if its only in a nominal way.

I do still appreciate your refresher on how patents work though! Hope the rest of your day goes well.

Honestly good. Let no one else use that technology. Then all i have to do is not buy a ford.

That said, if you plug your phone into your car, this tech is already in place lol.
