Do you seriously hallucinate a difference there? I'd like to have what you're smoking.

- __MatrixMan__ 2y agoWhat percentage of Meta or Google do you suppose is actually working on technology? Yeah sure they have little moonshot side projects involving quantum computing or whatever, but data centers and surveillance and browser malware has all been around for decades. They've been moving the needle hardly any all. These are ad companies, or propaganda companies, or attention companies. They have malicious intent, and calling them technology companies confuses people into thinking that technology itself has malicious intent.

- zombot 2y agoThis explains much better what you mean than your first comment. While I somewhat agree, I think that ship of using the wrong label has sailed long since. Which sells better: calling yourself a tech company, or a mercenary manipulator?
- bee_rider 2y agoI think the comment you were replying to basically agrees with you, they are imputing that Facebook and Google are the ad companies. AMD, Intel, even NVIDIA (although they are feeding on a bubble that might eventually roundabout end in ads), those are tech companies.
