I don't think I've ever written about open-source hardware headphones. But that's precisely what Ploopy offers with an amplifier based on a Raspberry Pi
they hired a surveillance officer, disgustingly trolled people trying to raise concern over it, their CEO said that the fediverse was using discord to run a hate campaign against the organization.
There probably are many reasons to doubt the likelyhood of using Discord, lol.
Then again, what query would I have to use on Searx (or any other search engine) to find more info whether any official from the Pi Foundation would have made those claims in the first place?
I have read some news on it a while ago and I still think everything got a bit overblown. I do not remember at this point ( I got bigger stuff to care about RN, like possibly most of us do right now), but was that officer not even actually hired but rather a community contributor instead? Plus, surveillance does not have to be against citizens but could also be against organised crime rings. I do understand that cops can be proverbial bastards (especially in the US and certain developing nations and dictatorships), but are some activists and netizens not overreacting a bit?
And what is your reply* for kind of comment anyway, after your showcase of maturity (/s) when calling something more akin to a potential (massive) PR blunder, “trolling”.
now if this was powered by any other SBC… pls
Most SBCs would be too large to fit inside headphones, lol. And tbh, I do not get the RPI hate that pops up in a lot of places recently.

Why do I doubt that if the Fediverse was going to run a hate campagin, they’d use Discord

exactly lmfao
Not sure on the veracity of all that, but I doubt that a company (or rather their PR team) would “troll” people.
okay, have it your way, its not like my claims are verifiable, right?
