In case you want something to send to your humans that say "I have nothing to hide" when you mention privacy. (lemmy.ml)

Not 100% in agreement with some of her videos, but I believe this one is spot on, and probably easier to understand by regular folk.

It is long by today's standards, but that's because it's not a simple subject. It does a great job condensing a lot of information into that 12 minutes and it's as entertaining as such a video can be. You're right that a lot of people won't watch it because it's 12 minutes, and that is a problem in itself, especially when they'll gladly watch 24 thirty second TikTok videos in the same amount of time that are all completely worthless.

Is there a transcript? I'm sure the relevant info can be digested in much less than 12 minutes.

Yeah I spend more time than that reading shitposts as someone said. But that's because I like reading. I hate video and I don't want to watch it if I can read the info instead. Tik Tok is not for me.
