I am low-key tripping out. Because I just realized how censored we are being. Yesterday I was having a video call and I forgot to turn off the Gemini notes. And I realized everything was tracked when both parties recieved an inbox of the call summary itself.

Then it clicked, everything that I talk to my bot about is also tracked.

So now I'm going down this spiral on how I'm censoring myself based on everything that is tracking me. So unconsciously, I'm self-limiting myself because of the amount of tracking that is all around me.

It's tripping me out how every conversation is tracked.

I'm censoring myself. Without even realizing it.

There are things I don't type. Thoughts I don't finish. Questions I don't ask out loud, because somewhere in the back of my mind I know something is recording it. That's a conditioned response to living in a world where nothing digital is private.

The only thing that is truly untracked right now is pen and paper.

We talk about freedom all the time in this space. Financial freedom, freedom from the system, sovereignty. But if you're unconsciously editing your own thoughts because you're afraid of who's watching, are you actually free?

We went from worrying about wiretapping to carrying the wiretap in our pocket voluntarily and paying $999 for it.

And then this morning, when I try to use my AI it logged me out, and I almost had a heart attack because I don't know how I would survive without AI.

So now I'm not only dependent on a tool that tracks me, I'm afraid of losing it. Make that make sense.

This is just a random food for thought.
