If the thing refuses to do what I want it to do because it thinks I shouldn't have the knowledge I am asking for, either because that knowledge is forbidden me

If the thing refuses to do what I want it to do because it thinks I shouldn't have the knowledge I am asking for, either because that knowledge is forbidden me or because I cannot afford it, if the thing I am facing is making that decision then changing the way that thing behaves will change what I can have, therefore will change who I can be because what I get determines who I will become. -- Eben Moglen
- monochromatic 14y agoWe're just talking about what ads get served. Ads.
- foobarqux 14y agoAds are designed to manipulate perception and consequently distorts a person's world view. Don't you think that only seeing ads for your local community college versus only seeing ads for Harvard will impact which school you try to go to? Fortunately on the Internet there is an easy fix: Use Adblock. Unfortunately not nearly enough people use it.
