Old Man in the Shoe (jenzi@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 19-Sep-2024 21:00:25 JST Old Man in the Shoe @BeAware No one ever tried denying ID cards before (or since). They claim they can give a digital ID card and it's all the same, however many providers won't take it. And if you're in an emergency you can't unlock your phone like how they pick your pockets.

On several calls they said "Be careful what you say, this is a recorded call". Recorded calls on "#AnthemLink" should be leaked.

The whole insurance offering is designed to put a chatbot between you and a doctor. You can't see anyone in person, they make you pay out of pocket - but if you talk to their doctor on the phone it's free. It's call steering and it's illegal.

At the end they were worried about "discovery" unearthing our phone calls - they were moving to deny people physical ID cards so they could not seek medical care.

Giving voice commands becomes so second nature that I'd try to turn on lights in hotels with my voice.

I was all in with Home Minis everywhere, Nest thermostat, Google phones... Then they started to do things like break the Nest & Google Home integration (to make me buy a new one) so I left.
