Indians and privacy

[theterminator]

Revenue or not, it's still a nuisance to society.

So are Indian roads … ban all that .

You can make an argument that alcohol can be consumed responsibly and you can say the same about porn.

Both of these requires a level of maturity that's not very common.

No buddy , you’re only talking about influential people’s rape. And sure there was rape before internet. But you can’t deny the correlation between pornography and rapes.
If you’ll read the news reports of any rape/molestation thoroughly then you will always find the accused made a video. Many times that video gets leaked to internet.

So basically you're saying that you don't have the time to buttress your claims which are based on preconceived notions, and you will add more hogwash which is easily disprovable to push your agenda.

“Preconceived notions”? Good luck understanding the correlation.

Correlation != causation and since you can't be bothered to support your claims, those claims are not worth the keyboard they are typed from.

They are exactly worth typing on as now a State government is issuing an executive order over it. Just see for yourself and refrain from incriminating others.
Keep denying the corelation, tell a female member of your home to watch porn and then ask whether this will lead to violence on the street or not?

I don’t have to support my so called “claims”.

Well we can all agree UP is a model state with no flaws in governance at all.

I didn't say that the topic wasn't worth discussing. I said that your contribution to this discussion was not worth the keyboard it was typed from.

What correlation am I denying? I asked you for evidence that porn leads to rape, and so far you have dismissed such demands with an ill-conceived sense of moral superiority because it doesn't suit your agenda or doesn't necessarily corroborate with what you said. Furthermore, I pointed out to you that even if you could find a 100% correlation, it wasn't worth much unless you could also establishb a causal link.

But clearly, as you proudly declare, you see no reason to support your so-called facts, which are apparently axioms in this universe because you took the effort to type them.

 

[Extreme Gamer]

To mention nothing about your dubious claim that all rapes are filmed...

So easily you get hyped over things .. relax. Chill. Your a$$ is not on .
Another amateurish digit forum user…
My contribution was that I took the effort of copy pasting the link from another browser and then I opened tapatalk and searched for a suitable thread to post & paste it. Not only that, I added 3-4 lines also. See how much effort that is?

 

[TheSloth]

Come on guys. The discussion can be a bit more civil. No need to call names or anything to others. It was going good until then. Keep the discussion going, but civil.

You can't just post flamebait and claim they were inoccuous 3-4 lines :/

 

[Desmond]

Ok, this topic has gone on far too long. Let's not deviate from this topic. Make another thread if anybody wants to continue to discuss this.

Yeah that’s what I’m saying to him/her.. Chill

Another claim dismissed

 

[Nerevarine]

Coming back to the topic, I think it's about time we have some laws of facial recognition like we have (fictional) three laws of robotics by Asimov.
But obviously the moolah generated by Google amazon microsoft comes first. Only the eu is sane enough politically to do something about it (I hope)

 

[RumbaMon19]

As far as laws for face ID are concerned, I think the govt. should make some laws on it. But It will only happen once some big mishap takes place, as usual. We dont know where the Chinese brands are storing our data, and there claims cant be believed as they could even be used by ccp for Mass spying on us.

Earlier it was easier to flash Custom ROM to prevent companies from collecting data, now even that is becoming difficult as they knowingly are giving corrupt source files so no Custom roms can be made.

And the Surveillence systems in china, which keep track of Real Time movements of people, is again a great human rights abuse. So you can guess that they may implement such technologies for mass surveillence in India, as faces are scanned, and mics too can be accessed. This might be pretty much a possibility because all the chinese Tech Companies have to sign a agreement with CCP in which, No matter what the CCP demands, they will have to provide them, or else, no buisness for them.

Only the eu is sane enough politically to do something about it (I hope)

They were in news for using HikVision's thermal cameras in there compound to monitor temperatures of there employs, only to find that HikVision has direct ties with the CCP, Like every other major chinese brand including Huawei, Dahua, Xiaomi, ByteDance etc. Didnt think that eu would not think about it.

P.S. Do we have a thread on china(Or "CCP" as it is the real culprit, chinese people aint bad, CCP is) on TDF?

 

[Nerevarine]

I rather distrust our own govt misusing facial recognition than China. Not everything is about China. See the video linked above, by Olivier. In the last BLM protests, the police used facial recognition to catch protesters later on. Some of the matches were false positives.
With our own govt throwing UAPA and sedition around like biscuit to street dogs, imagine tomorrow police just comes up locks you up because you are a lookalike of some protester.
In the US, you can fight the courts and get some sort of justice, at least Microsoft, Google and Amazon have backed out of offering their facial recognition engine to Police for the foreseeable future. Do you think that is possible in India ?

 

[RumbaMon19]

^^ Completely agree with that. The common man should be given control to his privacy.

And that wll be difficult for India, As you see, Explaining all the things about privacy to people in backward areas is difficult. Hope some privacy measures are taken accordingly.

Maybe in future an independant body maybe formed, under government which will take control on it.

Someone had posted this article to reddit:
How Indian Kids Raised Without Personal Space Became Adults Who Don't Care About Privacy



I know its a Buzzfeed article, but it really raises a good point. Most Indians don't really understand the concept of privacy because it is still very alien to most of us. This can be observed in the way people sometimes freely give away their contact details on social media publicly or invade other's privacy.

Also from the article:



What do you guys think? Is privacy really overrated or is it really crucial for us as individuals?

BTW anyone knows the name of the school and the headmistress ? Surely "right to privacy" wasnt a fundamental right to the kid they expelled and the same should apply to the headmistress and the school right ? Or maybe its just buzzfeed trash and writer is gaslighting us for nothing..
