A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Tech obsessives have never cared about consent. To them people are just things they can make do things, just data they can get what they want from, since technology does that they think people should be like that too. This isn't the beginning of that attitude, it's just the continuation of it as it's easier than ever!
They have been salivating for this day for a long time, now it's finally arrived and they couldn't be happier as it allows them to not 'waste' time asking people for consent, paying them for their time and skills, or even taking the time to learn the skills for themselves, it finally does what they have been hoping and dreaming for for so long!
