  • Exactly. Maybe one of your less close friends turns out to be a serial killer. Unbeknownst to you now you’ve made some jokes and had brunch with them. Now a team of cops is going through everything you’ve ever texted anyone because it’s unencrypted, correlating things to make you look horrible. Suddenly you’re getting your life ruined.

    There are cases of innocent people riding their bikes past an unknown crime scene getting arrested for murder because their phone was reporting their location to Google. Try explaining to your boss that you’re missing work today because you’re in jail for a murder charge. Privacy is important even when you think it’s not and perhaps especially when you think it’s not











  • I don’t know why everybody doesn’t just use “red”

    As you said, safe words are not about clues and red is far too easy to say during sex without it meaning emergency stop. Slap me til my cheeks turn red, I love your red underwear, etc. Sure, tripling it makes it much more obvious but things like safe words should IMHO not be things that need repeated or are reasonably likely to come up in another context during sex. Speaking nonsense isn’t my favorite either but I sure don’t love “redredred” being put on a pedestal either.









  • I have a benefit of the doubt thing here, not that any billionaire I’ve heard of deserves it. If I suddenly had a billion dollars, would I donate to an existing charity with an administration I don’t know and trust or would I think “hmm I can better choose what happens with this money” and start my own charitable enterprise? Like a bill/Miranda Gates situation.

    I know if I had a billion dollars worth of shares of a company I wouldn’t necessarily liquidate it all for philanthropy either. Do I hold onto control of these stocks while attempting to guide the company in a more ethical way? Idk. It’s an interesting thought
