I'm so sick of "those people" on the internet. You know the ones, the ten million python scripts amplifying political messages with the twitter API.

Hovercraft posted:nonexistent in the south until the federal government got involved? a+ i think it’s unfair to blame common internet users for how lovely the internet is. you can’t let off the hook the internet application providers that monetized lovely behavior. look at Richard “Lowtax” Kyanka. he chose to create a forum and build an internet community where posts have meaning and are judged on their own terms, not based on some algorithm deciding what will get the most clicks and serve the most ads. and now his wallet and neck are broke lol but i still like the forums

facebook stealing peoples data is not really making the world worse though, rather it turns out that universal unrestricted communication was a really bad idea, which is pretty bad news for humanity

Lowtax posted:But Facebook didn't really steal anybody's data... morons willingly gave it up. Exactly, there was never any stealing involved. Idiots, including myself decided "why not?" and signed on up to share cat photos and the latest thing we have digested, whilst also allowing our families to upgrade from chain email spam to commenting on every thing you decide to put online. The nerds that get the most angry about it are the nerds that didn't think of it first, because they sure as hell would be exploiting people as much as they could.
