This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.

If I'm shit-talking someone, it's in person or on my personal device.
Just a short jump to more invasive AI assisted snooping and analytics on spoken word conversations too.
Why stop there? Snoop on phone conversations too since high res zoom is cheap AF these days

Besides some hilarious typos I also found some old chat logs where I was using some colourful language. Deleted that. Hopefully it's proper gone and HR won't find it.
