IMO it’s better in a sense that one may do damage vs one that would not

There is probably a matter of precedence, so potentially other companies may follow

TLDR is basically because of age lockdown young adults can’t access the platform they’re missing out on news and a chance to have their opinions heard.
If I read that right

If they’re obviously recording that’s fine. The other issue is data processing of the footage. If we lived in a world where 99% chance that footage is e2ee (i.e. in the control of the person) then I’m fine with it.
If it’s being automatically processed by e.g. advertising industry without my consent then that sucks.

I’m advocating for making it obvious when someone is and preventing data processing of individuals without their consent (that includes google photos ML/face recognition).
You can design and manufacture many illegal things and yet that’s not common practice because if you get caught you’ll get punished. E.g. you can make bombs at home and yet I don’t see bombs being common outside.
In the scenario where you want to make your own camera you’d need to e.g. have to have a bright red led when it records. Or the camera modules being sold will already have that. That’s it. Hiding one would be get you fined if used. Today you can physically put a recording device in someone’s home, that’s entirely illegal where I live and yet people just don’t do that.
As for knowing you’re always being recorded - unless you’re a method actor or put in the effort you won’t always keep that in mind the entire time you’re outside. But I bet if a TV crew points their camera at you, you’ll behave differently (or at least your awareness will change)

Phones - usually obvious but not obvious enough, so yes I am for making a big red undeniable record indicator. Cameras - they either show footage or take footage, so easier to understand. Security cameras - they usually put up a sign when you’re entering a recorded zone, yeah we should make it obvious.
Pre internet it was not interconnected, having it so easy to connect data gives too much power over people’s lives. That makes the problem worse, but giving you a choice to chopse what you do and say when recorded is crucial in my opinion

Because then you get a chance to control your image. It’s a reminder that you’re being recorded, assuming you’re always recorded isn’t practical. You’re also at that point have the right to express your annoyance, perverts for example will get shamed immediately and in public.
Forcing manufacturers too will help curb illegal recording in private places (offenders will have to work harder to hide the fact that they’re recording)

Regulation can, what makes this so unique? You buy something from e.g. Alibaba and use it illegally - if you get caught you’re screwed. That’s enough to scare most people

It’s not only about sending data, it’s also the fact that they’re allowed to record without it being obvious. It needs to be unmistakable when it’s recording

Experienced developers benefit from it, my guess is because they’ve already formed their knowledge, habits, opinions, etc.

I was specifically comparing the surveillance tech that China has, hence my Meta reference. Obviously they’ve done much better in other areas than the US, e.g. high speed rail

on Open-source stealth USB hides an encrypted partition behind an 8GB decoy drive Phantom Drive appears as a regular USB stick until you create a text file to unlock the hidden data in c/technology@lemmy.world · 11 Aug 2026
Saving important documents as an emergency backup without worrying about it getting stolen. I guess the hidden partition adds another layer against someone who might want to try and brute force it
The catch there is that you don’t technically own the domain, instead they do, right?
