This is the reaction to the FAANGs obviously not caring that they are publishing CSAM.
They will be given more leeway for small scale "screwups" if they can show that they are working to reduce large scale issues.
As it is we are dealing with organisations that don't give a shit, so peoples attitudes reflect that back at them.
- Ajedi32 2mo agoI don't see anything here to suggest that they don't care. Is the fact that 9.2/100,000 full time workers keep getting killed every year in the construction industry proof those companies don't care that they're getting their workers killed? Or is it just that at scale, bad things inevitably happen whether you care or not? Maybe it's true Facebook doesn't care about this and if so that would be a problem, but I also think HN has an anti-FANG bias that causes people to give far too much weight to every negative news story that comes out about these companies. The only real issue with FAANG IMO is just the way software copyright and network effects grant them local monopolies in certain spaces. Overall I don't think they're as a whole any better or worse than any other company, large or small.
