Can you explain how wind and solar get cheaper over time? Especially wind, those blades have to be replaced fairly often and they are expensive.

It’s a complicated problem. The biggest privacy issues come from the use of JavaScript, but most of the time sites use JavaScript heavily and become unusable when it’s disabled. Other sites will straight up not let you access them without JavaScript.

Some things can be potentially embarrassing so your information could still be used against you by cyber gangs for money, so even though it’s no monetary impact for companies, the information still has a value.

I like to hope that my data won’t be released to companies like mychart without my consent.

No I get you. I just had a different problem with the same platforms that I wanted to voice.

Thanks for the explanation, I think I’m understanding better now. Part of my confusion is just me still not fully understanding the structure of these federating platforms. It makes a lot more sense now.

I’m taking a stance against these platforms by always declining to ever create an account on them when the doctor’s office asks. Having medical data accessible like this is just asking for an attack, followed by a leak. And then I can only assume insurance companies buy these leaked databases and adjust rates accordingly.

I don’t know the answer to your question, but I have never heard of these alternative protocols. Thanks for giving me something new to go learn about.

Yeah, this is what I meant. I think it’s kind of odd for an instance to be moderating other instances for its users, if that makes it clearer.

Title felt misleading.

Yep, the ones who are doing some kind of input on stack overflow (even just a survey) are way beyond the “let’s keep everything the same because to get rid of tech debt sounds like a bunch of work” camp.
