Captain Billy Pissboy posted:The thing about most of these obfuscation techniques is that these companies know the data they collect is garbage but it doesn't matter. The only thing keeping silicon valley afloat is cheap money from the fed so all their business models could just as well be based on unicorn farts. yes but even though 99% data is garbage, you can still legally buy up to date location data on pretty much any given person who owns a smartphone the idea is the make the 1% good data indistinguishable from the bad like encryption

GWBBQ posted:a big part of that story that didn't make it to English language media is that the people who were blocked by it were all people engaging in lovely business practices, underpaying employees, overcharging for rent, charging unreasonably high interest on loans, etc. basically, you don't to get to enjoy luxury if you made your money at the expense of others. the story we got isn't really plausible. i'm sure they would do it if they could, but that's probably a decade away. like i keep saying its way better than us credit scores where more money = better than
