    ♲ @josephfcox@twitter.com: New: the inevitable weaponization of app data is here. Grindr gives location data to third parties, broker gives it to Catholic publication, outlet uses that to track and out priest as potentially gay without consent.

    Indeed, but the current macroeconomic zeitgeist is to maintain a minimum of unemployment level to maintain competition between workers and drive wages down.

    Nope, the fundamental imbalance is that Bezos doesn’t even need each individual employee, he just need people to need money to survive in general. At his scale, individuals blur into macro-economic indicators.

    ♲ @SzMarsupial@twitter.com: it’s not “bezos makes this much while an amazon warehouse worker makes this little”, it’s “bezos makes this much BECAUSE an amazon warehouse worker makes this little”. not a question of unfairness but of material exploitation

    It's somewhat comforting to me that it must take a grueling military training to get humans to blindly follow orders and remorselessly kill their pairs, however I'm less thrilled that governments around the world are happy to spend a sizeable chunk of their resources to that end.

    ♲ @aurabogado@twitter.com: Phillip Lee Terry was crushed to death at an Amazon warehouse. The company wouldn't so much as talk about Terry's death to my colleague @willCIR. Terry didn't sacrifice his life so Bezos could go to space.

      Investigation raises alarm about handling of worker fatality at Indiana Amazon facility
      from PBS NewsHour
      Our research into never-before-public injury records from 23 Amazon warehouses across the country indicates most had injury rates higher than the industry average. One particular incident in Indiana raises questions about how regulators and government officials deal with potential safety violations at the global company. Will Evans of Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting reports.

    #Docker Desktop's new "Skip this update if you have a paid account" feature release seems to have coincided with the increased frequency of updates to about one per day. If it's intended to annoy free users into paying customers, it's really scummy.

    The point is convenience, both for the legitimate user if they lose their phone for example, including temporarily, and for a potential hacker to choose the way they breach a given user's account.

    Two-factor authentication systems asking you which way you want to receive your code is essentially asking "What device did you gain unauthorized access to?".

    I understand the feeling but I believe it's important to differentiate private grifters from spineless public officials. Otherwise you lose your ability to do anything about either.

    Are we still talking about grifters? As far as I know they don't address anything, they just talk about a specific subject with a passion, suggest outlandish "solutions" that will never be implemented or straight fabricate up outrage/hope with no regards for the fallout.

    Now, even outside of grifters, neither racism nor enforced economic inequality (the class warfare you mentioned) are correctly addressed in the US, and even when either are supposedly focused by Democrats (Republicans just deny both exist), nothing meaningful end up be done, cf twitter.com/indica/status/1416… for another egregious example fresh off the oven.

    Grifters definitely don't have any interest in change because they profit off the current situation. However "racism against white folks" doesn't exist, maybe you are thinking of something else with another name that actually makes sense.

    And there is a class problem in the US, but there also is an ongoing race problem as well. Both aren't interchangeable and intersect in very specific ways. Wealthy black people still experience discrimination based on their race, and poor white people have 99 problems, but racism ain't one.

    However you are right that focusing on either is misleading, ideally both should be addressed comprehensively but at the end of the day neither are.

    Nope, there are left-wing grifters but "promoting racism against white folks" isn't a thing. On the other hand they profit off white guilt and false hopes of progressive change and Shaun King is a prominent figure in that field.
