Cryptobros have a storied history of repackaging existing paradigms with new buzzwords, casinofying & ponzifying them, removing all safeguards, accountability and democratic structures; adding corruption instead, and shilling them to degenerates IPOs > ICOs Collectibles > NFTs Betting > Prediction markets Public companies > DAOs And countless others, not to mention everything that has failed miserably centuries ago being shilled as some genius innovation, like Terra Luna At least with memecoins there's no pretense, gotta give 'em that The real shame is behind each brazen moneygrab there's always some good tech that has been corrupted to such a grotesque extent that we've forgotten about their potential, let alone realising said potential. ~Governanceless digital protocols are one such case.

https://youtu.be/ZWT1dzpQWqw Ford Cars filed patents to read your lips, scan your iris, monitor your heart rate, and run your face through a criminal database. In your own truck. Without telling you. It's never been about safety. Ford Pro Telematics is already live, fleet managers can pull a real-time video feed of your face right now, from their phone, while you're driving. And Ford's own marketing materials explicitly connect that data to insurance outcomes. Then there's the ad-listening patent. Ford's own words: "maximum opportunity for ad-based monetization." Your conversations. In your truck. Used to sell you things. No description of how that data is protected. And the one that should end the conversation, Ford filed a patent to scan your biometrics and check them against a criminal database. In real time. Ford described it themselves as useful for police.
