Most of what Facebook and Google have developed could be used to do these things. In fact it has been used to do those things, perhaps with the exception of the physical threat. But monitor and suppress? Yes.
Is everyone who worked on this stuff also an enemy of mankind?
- dpratt 5y agoWhile I find what Google and Facebook do personally distasteful, it would be foolish and short-sighted to assume everyone who had worked there was complicit. It’s one thing to be an employee at a giant company that does a multitude of things, one of which when misused can present a threat, and an entirely different thing to sign up to work at a place who’s product’s _intended use_ is to support tyranny.
