Per Cognyte's own PR, such deals pave the way to sell more of its tech into the US. Among Cognyte's other products are predictive AI, social media surveillance, and an SS7 tool for finding a phone with just a number. It's also invested in adint, which gets user locations from mobile ads.

The actor, Edward Norton, calls for a General Strike! "What they are doing in Minnesota with the strike needs to expand. We should be talking about a national General and Economic Strike."

Engaging in mental gymnastics to justify what's convenient but unevidenced, unjust but personally beneficial, 'rewires your neural map' in ways that degrade your overall ability to understand and analyze the world around you, which is a precondition for intelligence and creativity.

Do you think Trump did it for any reason other than posturing or financial gain (or again posturing as having made financial gain)?

With surveillance tech like Flock and features like Ring's facial recognition they're implementing, the world is moving toward a future where we won't even need to be online to be tracked and monitored by government and technology companies.

May they invest heavily, so the music world (not the business that poses as part of it) can watch them crash horribly and hopefully never recover. 🤞

Did you know, GrapheneOS will have an opt-in built-in network location feature in the near future. We have an experimental implementation which we're testing already. It will not be enabled by default for privacy reasons. It will have support for choosing between multiple services.

He's closer to having an OK anecdote to express how stupid GDP is as a measure of value and long-term health of an economy. Maybe they economists produce the poo themselves and pay each other for the the others poo.

Cheap / common American beer in the states is almost religiously served cold as possible. I understand the function of "ice cold" watery beer in hotter climates, but more broadly I think the flavor of those beers is a large influence on the zeal that can be seen for very cold temps.

One of the most important political messages on the internet.
anyone who thinks the way to head off the tide of fascism is by limiting the range of political choices to either fascists or pro business neoliberal technocrats is dooming us to fascism. David Graeber.

It's a thing. It's poorly defined or regulated, the data is handed over at high rates, and the system has been exploited by hackers. www.congress.gov/crs-product/... www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergen... transparency.meta.com/reports/gove... slate.com/technology/2...

Completely agree with the sentiment. The financial structure isn't even a new problem and it's gotten worse. However, I think the only people who will miss out on "weirdos" are the average person. Most of the weirdos have always existed underground because that's where their ecosystem is.

This is related to security updates, not to the AOSP / QPR1 situation resulting from Google not releasing their code which is the reason P10 support isn't available yet.
