- ProAm 10y agoDo you not believe this type of mistake could cause monetary and permanent damages to his career?
- serge2k 10y agoWell I'm not american so I'm not hardwired TO SUE SUE SUE THREATEN TO SUE.
- ProAm 10y agoThere are no lawsuits in your country? Im sure even though you are not an American you can appreciate his need to setup a defense immediately when it concerns his livelihood? People are fired and ostracized for much less in this country, especially when it comes to social media outrage.
- notahacker 10y agoIf an organization circulated emails to all your professional contacts which stated that you were a "white nationalist", would you sit back and rely on their good intentions to resolve things? Especially if your professional contacts weren't people that worked in tech that could spot a shitty algorithm from a mile off
- serge2k 10y agoI'd send an email asking them to change it. actually it's linkedin, so I'd probably delete the email without reading it and maybe email them when someone asked me about it later.
- dragonwriter 10y ago> I understand why this is offensive, but really? Well, because (but for the arguable effect of the disclaimer about the algorithm) its clearly libelous, and lots of corporations are very loathe to respond to non-paying user, but more prone to respond if there is a possibility of legal action and associated negative publicity.
