I always take off my watch when I'm fucking. Feels weird with the algorithm watching.
Yeah who tf out here fuckin with their watches still on idk some folks have no respect 🤷🏻♂️
Why is there a watch that can tell when you're fucking? Only thing it needs to tell is time.
Eh, people have choices in their watch wear, and you're welcome to have a fully analog watch. Lots love those. A digital watch can be convenient in multiple ways. Personally I keep my phone silent and so both alarms and notifications usually come over my watch. I also have it watch my sleeping habits, my pulse, and my blood oxygen levels at night.
My watch AFAIK doesn't have this part, but apple watches can warn you or others if your heart rate is out of range, which can sometimes catch certain issues if the person is susceptible. Of course that gives up some privacy but some people accept that trade off.
I understand fully people not wanting or trusting that stuff, but it doesn't mean it shouldn't exist. Just because I don't like pickles I don't believe they shouldn't exist.
But people—all of them— have less choice when we normalize and allow to exist the sort of spy tech that can tell Apple (and apparently your family) when you are fucking.
That's absolutely what it means.
but... it's.. got electrolytes.
Why do my plants need a fucking Apple Watch?
Hell, I take mine off to masturbate as well.
Not me, I want them to know I am asserting dominance.
If you take your watch off then it can only be because you're fucking. The algorithm knows.
Sure. It can know that I am, but that doesn't mean I want it watching.
