I’d expend your tldr just a bit to include.
- users are stupid

In my opinion, where this “movement” failed was in the messaging.
“Stop Killing Games” is a great slogan written by a young person without much experience.
No company or government will pass a law that says, “you must indefinitely support every game you ever release”. Now, I understand that this isn’t what the group was calling for, but this is the message that comes across. Because of that, it immediately loses support from anyone in any type of software industry and likely many other industries as we know it isn’t realistic.
RIP Google Play Music. The best music service to ever exist.
I’ve gotten my last 2 jobs through LinkedIn. I know it doesn’t work well for some fields, but for tech it is great.
Exactly my thought. LinkedIn didn’t scrape their own data.
Unfortunately, it was originally seeded with people from the meta mod community in Reddit and so they brought all that with them.
Some discussions are awesome, but anything remotely controversial is a pure echo chamber and you’ll get shouted down if you dissent.
Why do these articles never have a screenshot of the change. So annoying.
Gen Z is app savvy, not tech savvy. Very very different.
Similar to you, but I also hate the advertising industry with a burning passion and want to deprive them of any and all data possible.
This is fucking ridiculous. I’m actually speechless.
You forgot to mention you use Arch, btw.
Israel is evil. News at 11
To be fair, this is describing all advertising.

Piracy is not stealing. Piracy affects artists.
These two statements can and do coexist.
He wasn’t arrested for creating it, but for distribution.
If dude just made it and kept it privately, he’d be fine.
I’m not defending child porn with this comment.
My 2012 MBP says otherwise. This thing is a rock and will not stop!
That screenshot looks like the old screenshots from the early browser wars with 20 toolbars stacked.
While I agree it is absurd, it absolutely happens. See the Las Vegas convention workers union. I was told that one worker could not plug-in an extension cord that had been previously plugged in because it wasn’t his job. There were numerous other instances exactly like that, while working a convention center floor.
It does happen.
