"User" means a person who purchases, leases, or otherwise uses a digital device.

2 Section 15. Collection, use, storage, or disclosure of

4 entity may turn on or enable, cause to be turned on or enabled,
5 or otherwise use a digital device's microphone to listen for or
6 collect information, including spoken words or other audible or
7 inaudible sounds, unless a user first agrees to a written
8 policy informing the user:
9 (1) that the microphone in his or her digital device
10 will be turned on, enabled, or used;
11 (2) how often the microphone will be turned on,
12 enabled, or used;
13 (3) of the categories of information, such as spoken
14 words or audible or inaudible sounds, the microphone will
15 be listening for, collecting, storing, and disclosing; and
16 (4) of the purpose for which the information will be
17 collected, used, stored, and disclosed.


This is actually pretty poorly drafted given that definition of user.

You don't even have to handle it though, you walk into someone else's house and then a device manufacturer is breaking the law because the owner turned "hey siri" on.

I know stem cells can turn into whatever other cells they are close to or some poo poo like that, but don't you need to do that under isolated conditions? If you inject them into your scalp for "hair abundance" whats preventing the stem cells from becoming more skin, or bone, or blood cells, there is nothing forcing them to become functional hair follicles if there is a ton of other poo poo to also transform into?

well, no, because they couldn't be a user until after they remotely activate it, and they have to get permission before they remotely activate it

That sound like the stuff they do to Idris Elba to make him "the bad guy" manmachine in the new FF movie.

This is why I instinctively distrust keto diet. Every keto diet dude on youtube sound way more cultist than other health diet "influencer".

This has to be setting him up to develop all sorts of cancer, like brand new cancers that we didn't know of before will be found in his autopsy.

oh, absolutely. and for the most part, we don't yet know how to create those isolated conditions in the human body in a way such that they'll produce beneficial effects and not just become cancer seeds. no stem cell treatments have actually been proven to work yet

but because everyone's heard of them in pop science articles talking about how they're the future of medicine, there's a whole industry of unregulated hucksters claiming that stem cells are a magic elixir of life and that you can cure any ill by getting injected with a vial of liquid that says "stem cells" on the side*

*vial may not actually contain any stem cells. vial may not have been prepared in a sterile, safe, or sanitary manner

There's a 99.9% chance all those stem cells they injected promptly died because they had been taken out of their normal bone marrow environment. The survivors may go on to form tumors :unsmigghh:

in asprey’s case it’s garden variety techie arrogance combined with hypochondria and a profound fear of death

then you have peter thiel who wants to mainline the blood of young people into his veins in a psychotic desire for immortality and world domination

finally you have jack dorsey who eats one small meal a day and fasts on weekends despite weighing like 143 pounds which sure sounds like a desire for control manifesting as an eating disorder

these people so rich and bored that their brains are turning on their own bodies. they’re a danger to themselves and others but since they’re wealthy and powerful nobody will dare force them into treatment.
