Im about a minute and a half in and just gotta laugh. Mr Data Collection really expect people to believe it 'blocks' AI data collection🤣.

Honestly Im sure its probably a decent product, but I wouldnt trust a damn thing from this guy. As for the what I mentioned about the Trump phone AI thing, thats in the ToS.

It really is. Just finished the vid, and at that price for what the claims are, there is something sus af going on. I just cannot imagine there isnt some data grabbing going on somehow.

well for one thing, they'd give it away if they could seize a portion of that marketshare.

as for the data mining, it's the fox guarding the henhouse. the same tech bros that own palantir, meta, etc.

you mean to tell me they can't retrofit pegasus to crack it?

we already know that starlink satellites are going to be (being) used to collect data for all these programs.

feels like slight of hand to me.

or, it wouldn't be unusual for Elon to simply change his mind later.

My thoughts exactly. And just because the 'AI' model itself may be local, its quite naive to think its not collected in other manners. Non-stock android, or for the diehard masochists, linux mobile distros, are the only true privacy options for anything mobile

and you can't fit a quantum chip in a tablet, so where is the quantum capability coming from if not onboard?

seriously sus

I dont even know how real 'quantum' anything actually is. I mean there is something to it I can safely assume, but currently it more a marketing term than anything else imho. Were it what its claimed to be in some circles, proper encryption would be dead and so far I've yet to see any proof of it. Also, it might really just be nothing more than RasPi in a fancy case. I sent a link about this to a tech genius so might be able to get a real idea of whats going on.
