@aram secret life of data

[fentiger@mastodon.social]

@boksy This was the original point of Ingress (Niantic's first game). They never charged anyone a penny for it while they were part of Google, and it was well known that you were "paying" for the game by collecting data for Google Maps as you played.

@SheDrivesMobility Will the drones have nanobots in them, to scan our caves because we can't breathe our atmosphere?

@SheDrivesMobility Military drones with information about civilian places, that's where they're going to be used.

@SheDrivesMobility (takes long draw on cigarette) I remember when the Ingress players were upset to discover their data was being used as the basis for Pokémon Go.
