Ask HN: How are you fighting apps for mundane things, extreme data collection?
1. I need to download an app
2. I need to add my credit card, load up some amount (don't worry, there is "auto-refill" for my convenience, how thoughtful!)
3. I need to scan the QR code on the washing machines to wash
Ah yes, the app has "History" complete with date time, amount spent on washing etc.
Now some shitty company somewhere knows my full clothes washing history, complete with credit card, address etc down to the exact washing machine used.
Can't wait for the day where I have to use an app to pee, in my own apartment's rest room. That way someone can have precise data on my peeing habits.
I am not a conspiracy theorist, but I wouldn't be surprised if my building's owner gets a cut out of this whole enterprise for using this company's "services"
I am just fed up, I can't even wash my clothes without having access to a 800$ smartphone?
End of rant
