Palantir is not the only threat, Paragon is equally nasty. Any company with a mission to enable fascism or supremacism is a problem. Palantir is very open about what they strive to do. I have no doubt their tech is mediocre, but their motiv

Like I said, their tech is meaningless. It's the deals they cut to gain access to data and the deals they cut to expose that data.

You don't need sophisticated tech to cause damage, you just need access to data. Palantir is dangerous not because it has some amazing technology that no one else has, it's that they aggregate many data sources of what would be co

I've gone years without coding and when I come back to it, it's like riding a bike! In each iteration of my coding career, I have become a better developer, even after a large gap. Now I can "code" during my gap. Were I

You say yes, but do you have any evidence to back that up? I’ve never seen any credible reporting suggesting China was censoring any topic on TikTok.

by sosomoxie 9mo ago
But did this apply to the US version of TikTok? We now have imposed censorship in the US app, that as far as I'm aware did not exist at all when it was owned by China.

What words were China filtering? I've never seen reports of censorship like this on TikTok before Ellison bought it.

This is such a tiresome comment. I'm in the US and subject to massive amounts of US propaganda. I'm happy to get a Chinese view on things; much welcomed. I'll take this over the Zionist slop from the Zionist providers any day

CRTs are peak steam punk technology. Analog, electric, kinda dangerous. Just totally mindblowing that we had these things in our living rooms shooting electric beams everywhere. I doubt it's environmentally friendly at all, but I'

I'd never heard of "authentic relating" but this definitely backs up what you say: https://authenticrelating.co/what-is-ar/

You're badly breaking site guidelines and spewing pseudo-science racial hatred.

I think this racist comment is a great example of how the immigrants have a superior culture to many people who live in this country.

No, I do not think immigration laws should exist. There is zero chance of 400 million people sleeping in my backyard.

The US is not like many countries in that it was formed by illegal immigrants , and not just immigration, literal genocide and land theft of the indigenous people. That being said, all immigration policy is out of date. The world is connec

I think the Democrats are also culpable for supporting anti-immigrant policy and sentiment. I absolutely believe that I'm in the minority, as this country has a deep history in racial bias (in fact, it was founded on that).

Yes, well I don't think we should deport people and I think immigrants improve the US, so I would be in the latter category. He's "waiting to hear of alternatives that don't involve deporting illegal immigrants", an

More immigration has drastically improved this country. I don't understand your position at all. ICE is far worse for our culture than then people providing me an actual livable diet.

Yeah I'm against ICE and I don't want any immigrants deported.

The parent's example is of an individual using that "legal" state collected data for nefarious purposes. Once it's collected, anyone who accesses it is a threat vector. Also, governments (including/especially the US
