Reply to comment by idontsmokeheroin in Apple sued for allegedly firing, threatening union organizers by Loki-L
In like 2003 my highschool computer teacher showed us the movie “pirates of Silicon Valley “. That movie immediately turned me off of apple because If even a fraction of what is portrayed in that movie is based on real events then the core of the company is irredeemable.

I've been here 7 or so years. Maybe little longer. The ones I saw dethroned we're spacedicks and creepshots. I'm assuming I'm just tame and don't know there other subs

You can get an IP and device ID ban, but if someone gets around both, there's nothing reddit, or any social media site for that matter, can do

And yet the EU is fine reaping the fruit of rotten labor just like America. Makes no difference.

>Do they not realize that unions have a cleansing effect on the relationship between employees and management? It makes things clearer, better?
Why do you think they want things to get "better" if they benefit from the status quo? Why risk losing power over the working class? Keeping us scared and desperate keeps us in line. Its kind of the whole point.

And I mean, it's an announcement about the effects of a policy they released almost a year ago when they were intending to IPO earlier. There's a lot still wrong with Reddit that'll make for a terrible public social media company. Their moderators are such massive liabilities. The corporate and country regulated subreddits are like Chinese TikTok level nightmares. And then the fact that it still has porn subreddits that really only act as an advertisement for its posters onlyfans.... like.... they got a lot of work ahead of them.

also. nothing stops anyone from making a new account.
now if reddit announced aggressively working with law enforcement to see anyone engaging in revenge porn or non-consensual image sharing... brought up on criminal charges. and here is some success stories.
that might be something.

100% this it’s exhausting how many people feel companies do things out of kindness. They are either seeking profit or found profit and want to add color to give the appearance of grace and kindness.
99% of Corporations do not think any other way. Giving a 1% variable so I don’t have people trying to correct me.

I mean we could dismantle the literal dystopian megacorps we've been brainwashed into thinking are helpful to us in any way. This whole economic system is poison and incentivizes sociopathy.

Afaik Slack does not have VoIP in the sense that it’s not an actual SIP service. And if it does I’d love for someone to point to where in the documentation cause it could be really useful for different integrations (am programmer).

Reply to comment by roflmaolz in US hands China easy PR win with TikTok show by HorrorCharacter5127
The failing of the Patriot Act is the act itself, or a failure to enforce it as was intended? I'd certainly argue the original intent of that bill was justified in its own right, as is the RESTRICT Act considering TikTok's proximity to the Chinese government. We've also ceased use of Huawei chips in federal devices for similar reasons, so it's not exactly like this is an immediate reaction over a singular event. But if you're genuinely concerned about surveillance and manipulation of regular citizens, just you wait until you learn about how China operates - at least one reason to put in the "pro" list of the RESTRICT Act.
So you see, the problem is that you don't seem to understand. In fact, it seems like all you want to do is compare this to the Patriot Act, and label anyone as naive who disagrees with you.
Amusingly, I think you're naive for failing to see the differences in these circumstances, rather than fixating on the similarities.

More or less, I'm not so hyped about the vertical landing, especially for a design that will carry people and without an ejection system. But they got the safest fuel available that is for sure, still needs cryogenic for the oxygen but is safer.

Honestly? I believe it's something mostly cultural which is engrained in them at business school and which these highly paid, highly esteemed executives lack the courage, curiosity, and intelligence to question.

>Oh, the line is celebreties. People with money and influence. Gotcha. Not you or I. Our "betters". Just gonna go commission some deepfake porn of this guys mother and see how he feels then.
I'm going to make a deepfake of Jada Smith starring in GI Jane so that Will Smith will come to my house and slap me.

I guess I was asking rhetorical questions. They don’t want things to get better, and if the best people end up quitting because of it, then fine. At least people who give a shit about unions or otherwise have eyes have left and those remaining have an example of what happens
