That’s where the laws come in. I don’t agree that recording and biometric information on people should be legally protected, unless you ask for permission first.

Well shucks, that sucks

Well yeah, one of them involves standing up to corpos and the other one would require actually talking to your kids, and conservatives are nothing if not cowardly, so

That sounds very much like the valourisation of what would eventually morph into “disruptive innovation.”

Older money loves feeling like it’s hip and cool for investing in the promising young upstart. They get to rage against the machine while driving it

Wow I can see all that in the movie, but didn’t know it was an explicit choice! This Cameron guy sounds pretty cool

My dad has been that guy! We sure ate a lottt of Silver Wok during that time 😋

Yeah if investors can’t make cartoonish returns for doing literally nothing what’s even the point of gouging customers??

People will be laid off
Spoils will be enjoyed
This great economy… it will endure
The working class will survive!

I think people miss an important point in these selloffs. It’s not just the raw text that’s valuable, but the minute interactions between networks of users people.

I’ve could imagine a sort of “script” running for months, haunting your every move across the internet, constantly running personalised little a/b tests, until a tactic is found to part you from your money.

I mean this tech exists now, but it’s fairly “dumb.” But it’s not hard to see how AI will make it much more pernicious.

Plural, pants. Actually, since there are 5 of them, that would actually be pantsssss

Sorry I don’t make the rules

Are you a Vulcan? O_o

Either way you have my thanks. Greatest utility value as well as greatest hilarity value!

Oh my god someone finally fell for it! Please don’t edit your comment, you just made my day

Hey that’s my combi too!

I’d probably use my own niche text editor

Man I’d be so mad if I’d built up a sweet severance, only to have to quit for better work

Hell yeah!

Fairphone looks really cool, but I feel like too big for my weak little hands

I’d probably just refurb an old old Android phone. Would love to buy hardware that is more ethically sourced though

I’m legitimately curious about their takes on this…
