Goodbye Uber, Uber One, Uber Business, and Uber Eats. I hope you’re the next Target. - Signed, a regular former customer who spent thousands with your company every year.

The US Army’s 250 years of service celebration has been hijacked for a personal vanity parade for someone who continuously denigrates our troops and the sacrifices they have made. Instead of watching the parade find another way to celebrate our military members. No tv ratings for him. #goarmy

Helpful protest safety reminders - blur faces and identifying characteristics. Scrub metadata from photos.

Out of all the government agencies, programs, and resources gutted - this strikes me as one of the sickest, most heartless moves. The National Center on Elder Abuse, really?? How does this make America great? According to www.seniorliving.org/research/eld... elder abuse is rampant.

Yet another example of people’s data being monetized and misused. Predictive analytics and confirmation bias are making decisions for us. We really need to wake up and start critically thinking. Are we being influenced? Did we see, hear, or read something that impacted our decision?

Brilliant. Malicious compliance (aka uncivil obedience) is the behavior of strictly following orders knowing that compliance will have a negative result, or undermines the order’s intent. Meant to damage, humiliate or threaten the established power structure. Just following orders ma’am.

This. All of this.

Another one bites the dust. Goodbye Proton.

For all my global friends out there that use WhatsApp as a primary way to communicate- think about your data privacy and what you’re giving away. www.wired.com/story/whatsa... www.androidauthority.com/whatsapp-pri... www.snopes.com/fact-check/w... www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

Make it these big companies’ problem too. They need to take a stance and join the fight. No consumer spending until we see action.

Run for something!

Bye bye Airbnb 🖕. From a former customer that regularly used your services. Find an alternative, download your data, delete your payment info, delete account, delete the app.

We have given up so much data privacy for convenience. Your data monetized and it has impacts on your safety and well-being. Take back some control of your data. Add disabling the new Apple feature. Settings > Apps > pick app > Apple Intelligence & Siri > toggle off.

It’s time to do what we do best: Make Republicans squirm and ensure Democrats fight like hell. Your representative is back home for recess and we’ve got events planned across the country (including Tesla dealerships). We know that showing up works and the stakes are too high to stay home. LFG. 👇

PLEASE REPOST - While doing consumer protests & also change ad preferences to minimize how big corporations monetize your data.That’s what really rakes in the $. Here are some ways: Google: support.google.com/My-Ad-Center... Amazon: www.wired.com/story/amazon... Meta: www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

Ya’ll know what to do. Leave some 1-star reviews for this location. Leave 1-star reviews in the App Store/Google Play for all apps. Change all your ad preferences so they can’t monetize your data. Delete the apps. #goodtrouble support.google.com/My-Ad-Center...

PLEASE REPOST - If you can’t join in person do economic protests to support. Call every big company you spend with, ask what they’re doing to protect your data or safety. Make these big companies take a position in this fight. Make it their problem. Sign up for the big one: generalstrikeus.com

Seems like its a good time to recirculate protest safety tips & rights. Also since media is not covering protests we need to do it. Just make sure to be respectful and protective of identities if you post anything so people feel safe to continue participating. www.greenpeace.org/usa/protest-...

It might be a good idea to use a search engine like DuckDuckGo and browser like FireFox unless you're an Apple user. Even email can be rerouted midstream. Be as safe online as you can.

If you are a public servant, or know one, this may be useful. A new organization, the Public Service Alliance, is offering advice on privacy and cybersecurity, physical safety, access to legal counsel and more. thepublicservicealliance.com/introducing-...

A lot is going on. Here are 3 things for the weekend. #fightback

Wake up people. Don’t just sit idly by. Since its inception the CFPB extracted nearly $12 billion for 29 million consumers in refunds and canceled debts. Remember the days of high credit card late fees? Predatory lending? The housing crisis in 2008? Hope you’re ready to welcome those times back.

Please Repost.

We’re joining the call for a NationalDayOfProtest on President’s Day — February 17, 2025. Important to remind Donald Trump that he isn’t qualified (or even eligible) for the office he holds.

This is not a drill. Time to wake up. www.verifythis.com/article/news...

Ok guys - next round of calls to make - airlines, credit cards that have mileage programs, etc. Tell them you are not traveling or spending until they take action. What are they doing to support the FAA and aviation safety? Put on the pressure! mynorthwest.com/local/planes...

www.opensecrets.org Who contributes to politicians? Explore disclosures and contributions at every level of government, from the state house to the White House. Let them know how you feel! #FollowTheMoney

www.goodsuniteus.com The average consumer funds politicians and PACs about 3x more through their purchasing decisions as compared to their political donations. Where is your money going? Tell them how you feel! Ps) with how chaotic things are may not be reflective of current positions.

Let’s fight capitalism with capitalism. Make it every organization’s problem until we see some action. They have a bigger microphone, let’s make them use it! #goodtrouble

There is a template in this link to email the Treasury Department and file a civil liberties complaint under the Privacy Act of 1974 and demand that Musk be hit with criminal penalties. Please share, please email!

Hear me out — If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is. Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

Lock those credit reports down NOW

If you want to stick it to Google, use the Duck Duck Go engine and then do a Google search through their browser. Google makes its money selling off people's information. Duck Duck Go prevents that from happening. It's like a slap in Google's face that you get to search, but they gain no benefit 😂

They can still monetize your data unless you take a few extra steps before deleting the apps. Hope this helps! www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...
