Big difference though is that in the UK these cameras are publically owned, and the data feeds into a publically owned ANPR database. Whereas Flock cameras are owned by flock and all the ANPR records are stored on their own infrastructure

I don’t believe Flock cameras are used anywhere in the UK?

Pretty much all public cctv cameras that are installed on the side of public roads, like Flock are in the US, are publically owned, either by Police forces, Local Councils or National highways.

Craig Newmark (Craigslist) and Jimmy Wales (Wikipedia) come to mind, both founders could have made platfoms that would have been ad-ridden (and made a boat full of cash) but the founders chose not to

Uhh, Craigslist is literally an ad platform. They just didn't want anything to do with a middleman.

I think we can all agree the "ads" on CL are not even close to the same ballpark as the offerings of ad tech. Like to conflate the two as the same would be the most disingenuous bit of logic that I'd be embarrassed if I were the one to have made it.

iCloud data can be end to end encrypted (https://support.apple.com/en-gb/108756)

iCloud Home video data is ALWAYS e2ee, even without using that setting.

wait till you find out about iLO/iDRAC or vPro

If you are EU based (or other equivalent country with decent data protection laws) there may be a GDPR complaint with them not deleting your data after closing your account under the right to be forgotten

Really only if you ask for your data to be deleted too

> What is the purpose of OpenAI storing millions of private conversations

Its needed for the conversation history feature, a core feature of the ChatGPT product

Its like saying "What is the purpose of Google Photos storing millions of private images"

This is true but why retain deleted conversations?

That's the objection: The court order requires them to retain everything they currently have, even if the user requests that it be deleted.

Because the New York Times sued them and made them.

https://openai.com/index/response-to-nyt-data-demands/

ChatGPT (the app) specifically says they keep deleted conversations for up to 30 days. That's probably why.

yeah but the link states "The 20 million user conversations were randomly sampled from Dec. 2022 to Nov. 2024" so this makes no sense. 2024 was much longer than 30 days ago

Because the court ordered them to retain the records longer than they normally would.

I wouldn't read too much into that site. For instance it says my chrome browser, updated to latest version has a user-agent "similarity ratio" (whatever that means) of 0.43%. This can't possibly be true because autoupdate is enabled by default for chrome, so you'd expect everyone to have the user-agent, or at least all the windows users to have the same user-agent. For whatever reason it also thinks firefox has a 37.8% market share, which is clearly not correct. I also tested some phones, which it also claims is "unique". That clearly can't be the case either. Phones are pretty basically run the same software/hardware, and are pretty locked down from a customization/sandboxing perspective, so at the very least you'd expect most of the iPhone 15 in New York to have the same fingerprint, for instance. It certainly shouldn't single any one out as "unique".

Alex Jones and Elon Musk said it. Must be true then

wheres that made clear in "ollama run deepseek-r1” the command to download/run the model?

Which you have to go to the model page to find.
