Easy identification by cleanup or maintenance crew, I’d gather

Most hotels, restaurants, and cafés in Europe have singular private stalls like this.

Gas stations, clubs, airports and schools might have a big restroom with dividers, but if they are fancy enough they might still have private rooms.

Public toilets and campsites rarely have private rooms.

What you’re seeing here is numbered doors of toilet stalls.

This picture is from the inside of a restroom area, so any gender icons would be the outside of any door in here anyway.

Seems like Glance is an app from the manufacturer, if you have a Motorola. It makes your lock screen dynamic and adds content to watch and stuff.

Don’t think it’s a problem but you could force stop and disable or uninstall it.

Don’t have an answer for which app is using the camera. Check your permissions like the other comment mentions, that’ll get you closer to figuring it out.

Also, might want to redact that email address.

No, he posted an article without comment, and the thumbnail of said article has that symbol. He didn’t post the symbol itself like the title suggests.

For the mobile users that can’t tap the exclamation mark, here’s the link again

I was gonna make the same joke, but then I finished reading the article:

And in 2019, former Louisiana State University football player Matt Branch publicly discussed how his black labrador retriever stepped on a hunting shotgun that had been placed in the back of a utility terrain vehicle on a hunting trip in Mississippi.

yeah it says 99.99 at first, but then when you choose 0 extra options it jumps to 119.99 :/

$119.99 is quite steep imo. I currently have a Pi Zero W soldered to my GC to allow custom ROMs, and that was relatively cheap.

I reverse image searched on mobile to try find the origin / source of this specific image to see if it was legit.

I wasn’t excluding the possibility of some company in the world prompting for a 100% tip, hence why I didn’t spend 10 seconds googling for it.

I have blocked most bots that regurgitate Reddit content, you should try it because it’s make for a more genuine experience when browsing All.

I can’t find the original image, it’s just been reshared dozens of times on Xitter, Threads, Facebook and Reddit, but nobody is adding context or naming and shaming.

So yeah, probably just ragebait.

Here’s the full page for anyone wondering: https://european-union.europa.eu/contact-eu_en

It’s only about live chat. You can still send in the form, call them, or visit a local office.

It’s just the internet, not necessarily a redditism.

And instead of a rainbow of downvoting options, just disable showing the vote counter.

This way, you can still downvote, but nobody sees the end result except maybe mods and admins for moderation purposes.

You can still use the upvote/downvote ratio to sort comments or posts in your feed, but it would be working under the hood instead of out in the open.

For anyone thinking “it’s their community, they can do what they want with it. Start your own if you disagree”:

A lot of users (including myself) believe that a community fundamentally belongs to said community. It’s not so much “you need to ask for permission to do X” but more like “is this what the community itself wants?”

Of course, not everything can be solved by community consensus, but to me, a community is nothing without the members. And if the members want X, Y or Z, provided it’s within instance rules, moderators should help facilitate that.

I am, but what can I do? Try and reporting it via the obtuse methods of Google to have them investigate themselves seems pointless

It was an ad partner’s pitch deck, not much to do with Facebook itself. And it didn’t really explain how it would be listening anyway.

Besides, if they were recording, processing and / or transferring audio, that would mean there’s data usage, battery usage, etc - stuff that’s easy to prove.

The truth is a lot simpler (and scarier) and you will find that in the links I provided.
