I feel like, even if there is a massively better alternative to Skype I'm gonna be stuck using its finicky, cpu-hogging ass for the rest of time because it's what my friends' friends know how to use. Convincing people I don't know they should use a program is more of a pain than it'd be worth.

Fucking this. The only plans they've released to make money is "selling emojis" and they've borrowed $20M in venture capital. They are legit selling your information to companies, there is no doubt in my mind.

If you don't give a shit about this, and obviously you probably don't since you're posting on 4chan, it's fine. Kind of shitty sometimes and doesn't play well with some games.

Otherwise just use Mumble.

It doesn't matter if you put out sensitive information or not, if you ever get in trouble with the law they will take all of the data they've collected on you and use it against you and make it relevant.

Define lightweight.
If your computer is at all decent, it shouldn't matter which program you run at the same time. Skype isn't as much of a resource hog as people complain (but it does fucking use more RAM than it ever should, but this isn't a problem with most computers since it's only like ~100 MB of RAM)
>>
>>338223863
If you think they don't do that on discord then lel

They also log posts here, but 4chan isn't the first thing they'd look at.

First places are twitter, FB, skype, chats, etc. If you use any of these and say stupid shit like "ima assassinate trump or i'ma steal cuz im a badass" then you are retarded.

But even if you "dont do anything wrong" might as well let them record your house more than it already is via satellite sempai.

Course the servers that store everything is the problem, cloud is a meme and people fall for it.

>>338222696
Not a big deal. All of that just gets sold to ad agencies, which hire big data firms to look through massive amounts of web sessions and crap for what usually amounts to a statistic that goes in a powerpoint somewhere (e.g. People click on links to view cars more frequently on Monday morning). I did some big data stuff, and everything gets stripped of PII before we received it. So potentially, yeah your identifiable info could get stolen by someone accessing the original collector's database, but that happens with everything. Unless you only use cash, don't own any property (including vehicles or guns) that you have registered with a government, don't pay any utilities, and don't use the internet then you are already being tracked. Thing is, you're just a blip on the radar. No big companies give a shit about prying into your life. No one cares what porn you look at, what drugs you do, what girls you like, or any dumb shit like that. The only thing people want to know is how to get you to click on more ads and buy more shit.

The exception would be government agencies or hacktivist groups, but what the hell is your plan to prevent them from getting what they want?

Shit, if I get targeted ads catered specifically to me then why should I get mad? I'm going to get ads anyway so I'd rather it's for shit I might actually be interested in rather than things like IT SOLUTIONS FOR SMALL BUSINESSES or something.

I'd imagine it'd take more than that. You'd need to be convincing, like gradually start looking like you're becoming radicalized or something over time.

+Push to talk that works well and has more options, not just an afterthought
+Better control over built in processing
+No ads, more efficient than Skype
+Free
+Can upload files to their servers to share, decent but not perfect preview coverage
+Protects IP better than Skype
+Individual volume control that Mumble only has in preview build and Skype does not have
-Still a memory hog
-Memory hogging increases as you look at embedded files, no way to properly unload embedded videos you played (just have to hope it unloads at some point)
-No font customization
-Even on compact mode, shit takes up a lot of space and if there are a lot of users and/or channels it becomes a mess
-Individual volume control is limited to 0-200%
-No way to directly file share, file sharing on servers has a size limit and probably other restrictions

You can get spam mail from just about anything anyway. Plus most of it is caught by filters, so who cares?

Again, why the fuck are you assuming people are meticulously going through every single piece of data? And even if they do look at my nudes, who gives a shit? I could post them myself right now and no one would know it's me anyway.

Same with recorded conversations. Who gives a shit? No one is actually reading them. It's all just bots. And even if someone is reading it, who cares? "LOOK JOHN, SOME RANDOM PERSON OVER THE INTERNET IS COMPLAINING ABOUT GETTING THE TACO SHITS TODAY!" Who cares?

You're not special. No one cares. Your data is just one drop in the great ocean of the internet.

This attitude is what allows your rights to be infringed. You think dystopian shit just happens overnight, like some whackjob gets into office and says "ok EVERYONE IS MONITORED NOW"? No, it happens gradually, with shit like this.

Slack with voice chat. Each "slack group" is both a chat server and a multi-channel voice server. Everyone gets full chat history. You can be connected to the chat, but not on voice.

I always hated this argument. You're totally cool with the government learning more about your personal life than your own family? Think about the amount of power they could have over you. Sure, if you aren't doing anything illegal you have nothing to hide, but everyone has their strange sides to them that could be used against them if someone were to find out. Not only that, but taken to the extreme, if you step out of line of their ideal, with that much power over you they could do whatever they want and there is nothing you could do about it. It's the stuff of dytopian novels.

Even if you have nothing to hide, you behave differently when you know someone is constantly watching you. Think about your work or school. When your boss/teacher is watching over you, you don't behave like yourself, you behave more like their ideal. You become more like a person that they want you to be, so you can satisfy them. Now apply that to the government. I'm curious how constant surveillance could affect the growth of a child and their development of a sense of self, but I imagine it can't be good.
