 The central reason you can't trust businesses to keep your data safe is you don't know how it's being handled once it's out of your hands. Even if the business claims to have reasonable data protection, how can you possibly know that for sure? All it takes is 1 incompetent or malicious employee for your data to be leaked. All it takes is 1 out of date software package or 1 software vulnerability. All it takes is 1 government to steal from or coerce the business for the data. And if there's ever a merger or acquisition then some other business acquires your data as an asset by default.

 # How to Protect Yourself
 The only foolproof way to protect yourself from data leaks is to never give data to businesses in the first place. "Consumer data protection" is a distraction campaign. You see, the more businesses talk about "consumer data protection" the less "bandwidth" there is in public discourse to talk about outright refusal to give up your data. Businesses can tout their data security practices all they want but it distracts from the truth which is you can just choose not to give your data to companies. We now live in a culture of "I agree" to the point that people forget they can say no to these things. Don't consent. Don't click "I agree" unless you've actually read the terms. Don't provide identifying information without serious consideration.

 One of the most important points Johann Hari makes in his book Stolen Focus, which by the way I plan to dedicate an entry to, is that unchecked capitalism leads to overconsumption and attention problems. The more focused attention people spend on one single task at a time, the less they will be task switching. The less people task switch, the less ads and media they see and the less products they'll consume. After you've saturated the consumer base for a product and you cannot raise prices any more, the only thing you can do is make people consume more. Make them interrupt their day more often doing what you want them to do. That necessarily means less attention dedicated to more important things.

 We have to make it easier for people to pay focused attention not by shaming them for "lacking willpower", but by removing the environmental factors that caused the problems in attention to begin with. To expect individual "willpower" to prevail on the whole over a systemic society-level problem is a strategy that will always fail. Should individuals still do everything they can? Absolutely. But we shouldn't be so focused on individual actions that we forget the true cause of the problem, which demands a collective solution.

 Some design decisions are less obvious. Twitter has infinite scroll, not pagination. This encourages users to get hooked, to keep on scrolling, without giving them a natural point to pause and decide if they really want to keep browsing. That and other design features mean that Twitter (and basically all big tech platforms) doesn't lend itself to use in moderation. It's designed to turn people into addicts.

 I could go on all day about big tech, but let's bring it back to Gemini. How is Gemini designed? What message does it communicate?
 
 ### Text-Based
-The first thing I notice about Gemini is that it's text-based. On Gemini, you read. You don't look at or watch. Reading is an active process that requires focused attention. So when you're on Gemini, you're on Gemini. You're not doing 10 other things at the same time. If you're on Youtube, you might have other browser tabs open, only half paying attention to the video.

 ### Non-addictive
 The second thing that stands out to me about Gemini is there's no rating system. On major social media networks, you have posts, comments, likes/dislikes, reactions, and replies. On Gemini, there's none of that. When you explore a capsule, you explore one person's thoughts at a time, in a linear fashion, with focused attention. Since one's focused attention is a scarce resource, Gemini is naturally non-addictive.

 ## Reflections
 Some people come to atheism because they're not first-generation atheists. Some call themselves religious but they never pray, they don't go to church, and they're not convinced of any of the myth. They're atheists for all practical purposes. Then there's those who have a crisis of faith and stop believing. Is it because of the millions of children who starve to death each year? Of course not. It's always because of some negative personal experience which is far pettier in comparison.

 Peterson has a fairly large and dedicated following. I found a few of his psychology lectures online. They were alright. He's obviously very passionate and able to communicate clearly at least some of the time. I'm not going to criticize his opinions in this entry because I have no idea what he actually thinks. What I think he deserves the most criticism for is his way of using language.

 ## Toxic Positivity
 You don't necessarily need to lie to yourself about what's going on in the world not to be depressed. A few people opt for that strategy. They put a positive spin on everything and when that becomes impossible, they outright lie to themselves. This is a form of [Toxic Positivity](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_positivity).
 
-For examples of toxic positivity, just search Youtube for how to get rich. You'll find clueless one-percenters who genuinely seem to think poor people only exist because they have the wrong mindset. I don't think I need to explain how harmful this is. This extreme can be avoided by just not lying to yourself.

 # Starting Fresh in Every Moment
 What does any of this have to do with starting fresh? Well, people tell themselves they can't do things based on past attempts that went badly or imagining things going badly in the future. People with social anxiety imagine that they'll make a fool of themselves in their next interaction which hasn't happened yet. Recovering drug addicts think because they relapse once, they're a user again.

 ## Destiny's Work
 
-Steven Kenneth Bonnell II, online alias Destiny, has worked tirelessly [exposing MAGA](https://yewtu.be/channel/UC554eY5jNUfDq3yDOJYirOQ?dark_mode=true "Destiny's Youtube Channel") as the dangerous cult it is by debating Trump supporters and disseminating factual information about January 6th and election issues.

 What I think Destiny has revealed in his recent debates is that **the bottom line for MAGA supporters is that they want Trump crowned king**. They (speaking in general) actually want the United States to become an authoritarian dictatorship under Trump's rule. They don't believe in democracy. They don't care how many crimes Trump commits or how brazenly he commits them. There's absolutely nothing he could do to lose their vote. According to them, all information that casts Trump in a bad light is part of the global media conspiracy against him. They're completely divorced from reality, with many believing in the craziest of conspiracy theories. They don't care about facts or evidence. As Destiny said, they live in "an epistemological echo chamber".

 It's amazing how people rationalize antisocial media addiction. Some studies show the majority of people checking their phone a hundred times a day with young people checking it up to two or three times as often. Checking your phone every five minutes is addictive behavior, even if it is normalized.
 
-Among the worst things antisocial media does to our species is robbing us of the benefits of spending time truly alone. Again, this problem didn't start with antisocial media, but antisocial media has worsened it. Take a few hours to sit quietly in your room alone without being on your phone or watching television. Observe your own thought patterns. Reflect on your habits, relationships, goals, health, and career. There's so much more to life than watching the next Youtube video.

 ## Being Sucked In
 I also hate the way antisocial media forces people to sign up and sucks them in. I've already written at length about how antisocial media and online disservices are making it practically impossible not to sign up in my entry titled "[Manufacturing Agreement](/2021/08/21/manufacturing-agreement/)".

 ## Deepak Chopra
 In the past, myself and others have lamented the fact that the atheist/skeptic/rationalist community doesn't get more involved with spirituality. When sane, rational people don't write books about spiritual inquiry or speak about it, the floor is given people who promote incoherent pseudoscientific pseudospiritual technobabble. Their technobabble sounds just scientific enough so lay people have a hard time distinguishing between the quacks and real scientists. People like [Deepak Chopra](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepak_Chopra) who promote alternative medicine and make proven false claims such as "you can tell your body not to age" cannot continue to represent the spiritual movement.

 That's part of why I'm writing this entry. If people like me don't want quacks like Chopra to continue being the authority on all things spiritual, we have to step up and start our own dialog rooted in the principles of science and skepticism.

 The presence of so much spiritual mumbo jumbo out there is a testament to the difficulty of putting spiritual concepts into words. It's very hard to explain it in such a way that people won't horribly misunderstand you.

 Breaking Bad is a fantastic series. It does a great job of debunking the black and white portrait of the drug war the DEA likes to paint: that they're the good guys catching the evil drug users, dealers, and manufacturers. Through the lives of each of the characters, you see that what's really going on is much more nuanced.

 No informed person is disputing that these are private companies and they have the legal right to do whatever they want (within the bounds of the law) with their platforms. The 1st amendment doesn't apply here. Nonetheless it's very alarming that voices coming from the political left are sympathetic to widespread censorship just because it's Trump. If it were someone within their own ranks being censored they would no doubt be making the same argument I'm going to make about the danger of censorship. Voices coming from the political right actually have a saner viewpoint on the censorship problem in the sense that they can actually recognize censorship as a social problem which Trump's situation has only highlighted.
