If a device is recording you and everyone around you,

And is sharing all this data with a corporation outside of your control,

It is not a "smart" device,
It is a spying device.

At the very least, you are ethically required to not inflict this surveillance upon others without prior explicit consent.

Every CIA coup in Latin America from 1947-2002 to enforce Washington’s hegemony with an iron fist by installing fascist dictatorships and disastrous neoliberalism to create favourable conditions for US corporations to cheaply extract resources.

Amazing how "Antifa" isn't actually an organization but is somehow designated as "terrorist group," while the KKK, Oath keepers, Proud boys, 3 percenters, and dozens more like them are actual white supremacist "Christian" terrorist organizations that have mass murdered thousands of Black people and some white allies across two centuries and virtually every state—and are still not labeled as terrorist organizations.

This gender-neutral, single occupancy, public restroom has an "occupied" gate that blocks the lower half of the entry way, but the facilities folx had locked it open, so that you couldn't latch it—because in order to fuck over homeless folx, they're also fucking over people who need to sit to use the bathroom.

So I fixed it.
