This is utter bullshit. McDs were already installing these everywhere. Vox of course reports this as if it were true.

While Trump can be amusing, insane, WTF, he is above all things canny and manipulative.
While Trump can be amusing, insane, WTF, he is above all things canny and manipulative. He is fully aware of his power to get a rise out of everyone and he is deliberately using it to play the media and to control the agenda.
He’s not dumb for tweeting at 3am, we are dumb for reacting to it. He’s our toxic internet friend and he’s trolling us all badly.

“Journalists who feel they are savvy love to make it seem as though they are aware of Trump’s manipulative tactics, but somehow they continue falling victim to them. Maybe they are not as clever as they’d like to believe. They strangely never learn the lessons of their bad Trump coverage, and they allow him to dictate how they perform their jobs, even now.”

The Washington Post sounds like a Dickensian Mill to work at. Or worse, an Amazon warehouse.

We also have this tool called Websked, which is now in the newsroom, where basically now for the first time there is a central command where the editors can see what’s being worked on across the newsroom—in video and photography and blogs.
You need to input a time to end—when do you think that story you’re writing is going to be ready? As your time draws near, the desk will send a reminder: Hey, your story is due in an hour. We see you haven’t yet finished the third paragraph. You see the curve every day of how many pieces of content were published by hour.
Marty sets a curve that he wants. He wants 30 percent of it at 9 am. We own the URL America’s First Read. We want to move that curve. There is the culture, then there are the tools that enable that culture to flourish.

A fair bit of guilt by association going in this article but, realistically, we cannot know how vulnerable these systems really are.
If [Tor and Signal] ever posed a threat to the United States — and to the corporate monopoly power that calls the shots here — their funding would be pulled and they would cease to exist. In short: if you’re worried about corporate-state surveillance, technology funded by this very same state is not the answer.

WaPo is copping a lot of well deserved flack for this fake fake news story.

“Empathy” apparently is what distinguishes well-heeled liberals from well-heeled conservatives.
“Empathy” apparently is what distinguishes well-heeled liberals from well-heeled conservatives. There was a lot of talk about empathy during the election.
Personally, I don’t think it’s a very useful way to look at it. Rather than ask a bunch of heartless corporations to have empathy for the most vulnerable of our society, I’d much prefer to see them regulated the fuck out of and pinned down under the weight of onerous taxes.
