Fribo Will Make Your Private Space Into A Community

Great idea, for the Deep State:

Researchers from Korea think so, and they have developed a prototype robot named Fribo that encourages young people to text and call one another. Unlike many other robots built for the home, Fribo is not intended to be social itself, but to instead foster socializing in others. Fribos are intended to be distributed in a group of friends’ houses, creating what researchers call a “virtual living space” that brings together individuals who are physically isolated.

Fribo creates a “virtual living space” between a group of houses

Fribo does this by listening for activity in individuals’ houses and encouraging users to talk via chat apps. Microphones and sensors recognize domestic activities like when someone comes home, turns on a light, vacuums, or opens a fridge. This information is then shared anonymously with the rest of the group. “Oho!” says Fribo. “Your friend opened the front door. Did someone just come home?”

What is really interesting about the article is how it promotes the idea as popular, “a hit,” and so on. I strongly suspect that those things are not the honest assessment by an honest writer which you think.

It reminds me of back when there were multiple social media companies to choose from. Myspace was dominant, and Facebook was just catching on. I remember being struck by how all at once, I was hearing every media outlet telling me how the tide had changed, and everyone was migrating away from Myspace and to Facebook. Some even implied those who used Myspace were old timers out of the loop and not “hip” and with it.

I was online at the time, and knew people who used those services, and before those reports I had not known anybody using facebook. My clear impression always was some deal was struck with Facebook, or it had matured to the point it was decided to send it live through a coordinated media campaign, and all those reporters had been told to say that.

Now I see this idea for a robot, which is absolutely terrible for everybody but the Deep State techs who will hack that thing open like a coconut, and drive all the camera, mic, and data feeds right into their central ops center.

And what is the media saying? It is a great idea which lonely people (read that as people who are resistant to infiltration surveillance because they tightly police their social circle) should adopt, and everyone loves it.

Cal me paranoid, but I don’t buy it.

Spread r/K Theory, because you can’t be lonely if you are telling someone about it

The UK has already appointed its “Minister of loneliness” to oversee the data collected.

What will Fribo say if it detects a window breaking followed by the sound of urban youths taking your television?

It says nothing, after the yoots look at it and say “snitches get stitches”.

great idea for identity thieves, home invasion artists and other forms of parasitic life.

Metaphysically, “privacy” was aborted in Ho versus Maid circa 1973. Politically, “privacy” died when homosexuals came “out of the closet” per egalitarian AIDS.

Clearly, alt-rite fails on the privacy front as it neither rejects abortion-on-demand nor out-in-the-open homosexuality.

Uh, I dunno about you, thordaddy, but all the alt-right guys I know disapprove of homosexuality and abortion. Maybe you are thinking about the alt-lite?

Michael…

The rejection of abortion and homosexuality makes one Right and NOT alt-rite. Those who you are describing simply don’t see what is to be after this “movement” dissolves.
