How much metadata could the Chinese actually harvest from simply having an app installed on everyone’s phone?

Zoomers are retarded

also flooded /wsg/

Who cares? Russia or China doesn't care about you, I rather have them keep my data than US government.

Judging by wikipedia's article
>ByteDance’s research arm, the AI lab was founded in March 2016. The lab’s research focuses on AI for understanding information (text, images, videos) in depth, and developing large scale machine learning algorithms. Its main research areas include Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Speech and Audio, Knowledge and Data Mining, Distributed System and Networking, and Computer Graphics

A whole fucking lot of data

About as much as Facebook and Twitter.

lol no
western companies only care about ad revenue and perhaps pushing a certain political agenda
that's babby stuff compared to what the chinese could do

Maybe you should re-read the question that was actually asked by the OP you stupid fuck.

and maybe you should use your brain you doublenigger, because if you think the chinese won't mine a lot more data than western companies you're delusional
first of all, china doesn't give a fuck about gdpr compliancy

Facebook already has access to your contacts, your location data, your phone records, etc. Exactly what other metadata do you think the chinks want that Facebook doesn't already have?
>GDPR
A lot of good that's done so far.

ain't doing your homework, glowing in the dark nigger

No flood only good tiktoks

This is like watching Jow Forums go down the shithole all over again

imagine being spied on, lol.

t. LineageOS, xprivacylua, & afwall+

i guess they never miss, huh?

I think user's point was that the chinks care for using the data for different means.

Idk some weird eugenics shit or whatever they do over there.

Actually /wsg/ is alive now thanks to tiktok

December 24th was when bonbibonkers (a tiktok user who became really popular on the board returned)

That's a chink problem then. They don't share that info to the glow-in-the-darks like western social media does.

If you like blacked yes

They're genuinely one of the most concerning companies online currently. They're focused on feeding AI and their facial filters are wild. None of this can lead to good things.

I don't know if that's a good thing necessarily. I'll admit I haven't visited that board very often since 2015 or so but reading some of the posts it feels like reddit and the youtube comment section had a rape baby.

At least wargroove is pretty comfy still.

the 4chanx catalog has a filter function user.

what the fuck

The most active general is getting raided constantly atm so right now so its bad but 2 weeks ago it was good

I only just found out that this is actually a girl. Jow Forums has ruined me to the point where it never even crossed my mind that it could have been a girl.

maybe the real blacked was the friends we made along the way ?

>fortnite
>most played game of 2018
>literally tracks everything you do and every process you have running on your pc, as well as every program installed
>made by epic games, owned 40%+ by tencent, the chinese botnet
>are now pushing a pc games storefront

>western products are so censored youth turn to chinese alternatives
What a time to be alive.

>>are now pushing a pc games storefront
What's the problem with that? I thought everybody loved DRM, just watching at the success of muh steam.
Don't you like tencent saving PC gaming too?

A LOT.
Especially from iPhones.

>botnet uses filters to make use of facial recognition and improve algorithms
Furries don't have this problem and win again lul

>being fine with the chinese knowing everything you with to your computer
Valve only checks their own platform and games. They even rely on surveys for seeing what hardware is used.

I don't use or support DRMs. I'm just glad steamtards get buttfucked.

Hold on, we need to apply some insect repellent to this thread.

How do you know that? Is steam open source or something? Or is it just stupid blind trust?

A self-admitted one.

Then you should shill GOG, not epic.

You can also make a diagnosis of what a program does in an environment. That's called backwards engineering. You can make great assumptions on what it does looking at all the OS calls the program performs. Many people have done this and none came up with outrageous claims of Steam doing shit it's not supposed to do.

And you reverse engineered tencent's client too?

I don't shill anybody, I'm just very ok steam users are punished the way they sinned.

Doesn't Tencent also own PUBG Mobile? They're playing both sides it seems.

Have you seen Tencent's Terms of Service? They literally admit they track that data and can process it in any way they want.

They own a lot nowadays. Both Epic and PUBG. And big chunks from other AAA game companies.

Imagine being this bluepilled

>Have you seen Tencent's Terms of Service?
Why would I? I don't support DRM.

Then go live there. If you knew what life was like under them, you wouldn't be gladly giving them the information they need to invade the west.

metadata is an overrated meme
unless you're looking for some particular information there's nothing useful about raw data
it's literally just a corporate form of data hoarding 4k anime on your 20TB home network

i am, thank you very much.

You watch too much news dude

Russia and China aren’t plotting to invade the west

really?

Russians don't give a single crap about amerilards, retard. At this point, even Putin doesn't give a fuck and just babbles on for media attention.
