Interesting that in his mind the looting is the dark side of this uprising.
How about the drones the riot cops use to watch the protesters' every move?
Wasn't it Microsoft and AWS fighting over the facial recognition AI contract that Google finally dropped?
- scarface74 6y agoThe peaceful protest with Kaepernick kneeling and “can we all just get along” was part I. People should have listened then instead of excusing the President for calling him a “son of a bitch”. This is part II.
- gilbetron 6y agoWere the cops organizing by social media? He's making the point that social media can be used for good or bad, what the cops use is a rather orthogonal point. (To be clear: the things you mention are bad)
- samirillian 6y agoWhat do you think this facial-recognition AI is trained on? To me it's just amazingly pedestrian to consider "I saw a blog post" an actual political analysis of social media.
- Kiro 6y agoInteresting that in your mind drones are the dark side of the uprising. Really says something about the tech bubble and priorities. I can assure you that drones are the least of protestors' problems right now.
