Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I also hate that there is never an option to opt out of this service either.
Not universally true— with my healthcare network there is a consent form that allows you to decline the use of AI for online appointments, and for in-person they request verbal consent. I make sure to decline every time.
Just wanted to share so that people can check if opting out is possible (for now at least).
one can only hope it has any meaning. what platform do they use for online ~~applications~~ appointments? zoom? ms teams? google meet?
My network (my insurance is with an HMO so it’s all centralized with all the physical and mental healthcare providers I have access to) has you click on your appointment in the app or online, and then it opens Zoom.
I have to use Teams for work and the idea of using that for therapy is kind of funny for some reason…
yeah. I wouldn't expect that opt out to be honored. maybe by your provider, but not by zoom.
