  • I dont like the idea of google watching what my kids buy. Edit for context: I dont like the idea of this being used to advertise to children. I dont like the idea of my child being used as a data point. I dont like the idea of a crazy ex who works at google using this to figure out what your kids are doing. I dont like ANY of the consequences of what this implies. Give your kid cash or a gift card. They dont deserve to have their Privacy rights violated before they can consent.

    I know its exaggeration but if my dentist can’t book me every 6 months i’d question their ability to take care of me as a patient. thats what I’m used to, and what I was taught was normal, so if I’m waiting over a year I’m gonna think thats a little suspicious




  • I didn’t mean to try and invalidate how people consume their media, I’m just frustrated with the fact that there is no longer an option to even buy a smaller phone. When you I had originally responded to you with the TV comment, it wasn’t about invalidating people who do watch tv on a phone. It was about the fact the ideal way to do it is on a tv, with the assumption that it was implied you could also watch stuff on a smaller phone. IMHO, a 6.5" screen for viewing is not that much different from a 5" screen, but it makes a world of difference for holding and using it. I can’t type on my phone without using two hands currently, its constantly pulling on my pants, and if I’m not wearing a belt (say, sweatpants or shorts) I’m constantly pulling my pants back up, and I have a few pairs of pants where the thing falls out of my pocket and in between the car door while im closing it because of how big it is. I hate it and I want a smaller one. I apologize for any of it being a personal attack, but I still feel like every single phone being 6"+er is frustrating for people like me, and I know for a fact I’m not the only person with these problems.
