Gregory's ServerI don't want to be alarmist, but google lens is good enough that it can help dox you. all it takes is for a building in the background of a photo to have been listed on zillow, then google lens might be able to find it given that section of the pic

there is a selection bias because I picked this building since it was already on zillow, but the fact that this works consistently is worrisome

@SuricrasiaOnline kind of reminds me of how some researchers found the top domains a machine learning image generator thing was trained on, and one of the top ones was pinimg.com (Pinterest's CDN URL). i think at this point every image that's ever been on the internet has probably been scraped for pinterest.

@SuricrasiaOnline cloud patterns are very unique Ears are like fingerprints. They too are very easy to automatically detect. We in germany are on a slipperly slope. Many politicians want more police force even though crime rate has been going down for a half a century

@bushwacker @SuricrasiaOnline reminds me of somebody finding some location just based on like, the night sky and stars and fuck, that reminds me of the time one of my friends asked me to take a pic of the sky and they narrowed down my exact location. it was fucking weird and made me feel uneasy for the rest of the day

@SuricrasiaOnline not knowing what it is, or what it does, i assumed from the name it's spyware, and disabled it: https://cathode.church/@meena/108897119170220203 |
