Should go harder IMHO. This ad from the National Congress of American Indians does a good job.

You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. "Do you want to fill out the application manually, or upload your resume?" You select the latter and upload your resume. Indeed loads the next page: "Please fill out your work history manually." You scream 20 times

Gonna need to know more. What method do you use to lock your phone? Is it rooted?

Also: did they return the phone to you, or to your friend? Could it be your friend who went through these apps?

This is a great point. There are some people who just will never vote for a candidate if they feel that the person supports genocide, even if it means their livelihood will be impacted! I guess we should factor those voters in when we select candidates. Would hate to lose again!

Thankfully this appears to be wrong.

lololol no, you're right, voters should absolutely represent our politicians and not the other way around. Please reply with the same meme again if you agree.

Thank you for coming over from Threads and teaching us a valuable lesson.

The weirdest part to me: this comes after the EU determined that Apple's locked store is too restrictive, and Apple agreed to allow 3rd party stores. Why the hell would Android go in the opposite direction? Will this put them in violation of the same EU regulation?

lol this is a GREAT idea!

Some frat bro looked me dead the eye and was like "We should nuke the Middle East. All of it. How many of them are good people, really?"

This was within 5 minutes of meeting him

I don't think the issue is "I want to do illegal things in public without consequence." It's more, "I don't trust the mechanisms of enforcement to use this power justly."

For example: Radio City Music Hall used facial recognition tech to identify and ban a lawyer whose firm was suing them. She wasn't even working the case. RCMH just issued a blanket ban. It's abusive.

And there are other risks. Stalking is a huge one. (Some creep takes your pic at the supermarket and now you spend a year of your life getting creepy messages and feeling unsafe everywhere you go.) Or there's the risk that people who participate in lawful protest will face retribution or punishment by corrupt law enforcement.

Kashmir Hill has a great book out about this now. You can read an interview with her here.

so this is the new Reddit huh

Kinda think "The #2 Amazon result is an erotic novel where she's a bat monster" is probably not a good look

This article has so few details. How do we think they're pulling this off? Phones? A Flipper maybe? And then what?

Yes, the bottleneck isn't software, it's hardware. We need phones with unlocked bootloaders

Boots with the fur

Unfortunately there is only one way to get older generations onto a new app: make it the only place where they can see pictures of their grandkids

(I'm serious tho. When you have kids you can get their grandparents to install ANYTHING if you tell them it has pics of the new baby.)
