There's no benefit there that would be useful to anyone. If you need a public ledger then you can just do that and skip the crypto BS

Oh hey, Raspberry Pi still exists.
Did they ever fire that cop?
Jeeze, look at all the salty Bidenists giving you pissy downvotes now that their favorite big wet boy is planning for retirement.
I've been telling people that the Dems would have to drop the incumbent to win 2024 since 2016 when the DNC rigged their own primary, but no matter how I try to explain it I immediately get accused of being a Republican. I feel like Cassandra, cursed to utter true prophecies but never be believed.
No matter how reasonably I phrase the argument, I haven't been able to point out that the Dems would have better chances if Biden dropped out without getting accused of supporting Trump all the way up to the day after Biden dropped out.
There's no such thing as a free market.
Oh, it's true. Even without any unlawful computer access, the amount of personal info your average IT furry can access is pretty astounding. There's furries quietly keeping things running in the background across tech, finance, industry, science, and just about everywhere.
Our Bacon numbers are tiny, too. It might be six degrees for any two random humans, but in the furry community you rarely have to go farther than friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend.
So; if you've got a problem, if nobody else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... A Furry.
At some point you have to ask yourself if it would be less hassle to switch now or to try and tough it out until Windows becomes unbearable.
Not much I can do about that, but I can at least keep them off my network so that info isn't associated with my IP address and sold off to whoever wants it.
why?
For the same reason that one might block ads or cookies, of course. I don't want a third party corporation profiling the bluetooth devices in my house and selling data about me to advertizers.
what does their device locator service have to do with your home network?
Apple's device locator service uses the internet to report device IDs and GPS coords to Apple.
I'm genuinely curious, because nothing from that service has anything to do with anything that might happen on your network
Ideally, that would be true. But device locators necessarily report their snooping using an internet connection, and if they're on my home network when they do it then they'd associate my IP address with my location. That's way more of my personal information than I want Apple to have.
There's no hiding secrets from the future.
Public ledgers predate crypto BS by decades and are not improved by cryptographic chaining between entries.
