Who are you to decide what matters and what doesn’t?

If you were a journalist reporting on russia or the UAE it would certainly matter.

Not to mention that it’s not that hard to imagine an AI tool being paired with 24/7 surveillance that reports back private information it hears.

It’s also not hard to imagine your average hackers getting their hands on a tool like that after a couple years of governments deploying it.

You're wack. Do you think a locked down laptop lid sensor will stop them from spiking your tea with polonium, or shooting you with a ricin BB, or breaking into your home when you're asleep and jabbing a needle into your neck while holding a pillow over your face, or kidnapping you and breaking your bones with a sledge hammer until they've gotten their rocks off?

This laptop lid threat is fantasy. Get fucking real.
