Almost like it is not a for-profit company, and the investors interests are not a priority…

I was talking about Chomsky. He is not trustworthy.

This is the guy who went on record claiming that it is somehow NATO’s fault for Putin’s Russia invading Ukraine. Do not trust him with anything related to politics, he is out of his mind.

Hamas is an internationally recognized terrorist organization, which just executed a bunch of civilians on a music fest. There is no grey area and no room for interpretation.

Maybe the released few were treated well. Very few out of hundreds. Hamas have not deserved an ounce of trust, don’t give it to them for free.

“Citogenesis” I chuckled:) XKCD is great

Oh and here’s the wiki article on the subject! With a link to the comic no less:

Do it!

Good! Saying “I will not condemn Palestinian resistance” at this specific time is a quite literal endorsement of Hamas. It’s the only “resistance” and it is 100% based on slaughter of innocents (both Israeli and Palestinians).

A really horrible stance to take, with the very much expected consequences.

Here’s an AI bot’s summary:

Cory Doctorow gave a talk about the concept of “ensh*ttification” - how internet platforms start out good, then abuse users to benefit businesses, then abuse businesses to benefit themselves, until they die.

He argues today’s big tech firms like Facebook and Google have undergone ensh*ttification, withdrawing value from users and business partners to benefit shareholders.

Doctorow says ensh*ttification happens due to lack of competition, companies’ ability to “twiddle the knobs” with no transparency, and laws that criminalize modifying platforms.

He proposes halting consolidation, limiting companies’ twiddling abilities, and restoring the right to modify platforms through “adversarial interoperability.”

This will help shift control of technology from giant companies to small ones, co-ops, nonprofits and user communities.

Tactics include blocking mergers, mandating open APIs, government procurement rules favoring interoperability, and rolling back laws against modifying platforms.

The goal is a “new good internet” that succeeds the old open internet and avoids the pitfalls of today’s walled gardens. Doctorow urges spreading these ideas to seize opportunities in future crises.
