I am completely stopping all 401k contributions in protest to the #us #dictator and his #ice #thugs. This is the only #collectiveAction readily available to us #citizens, but if we all rejected their bullshit incentives, maybe they will start listening.
This is the only lever I have been able to find. I hope others join me.
When GenAI rolled along I was massively dissuaded from working on my creative endeavours and sharing them with people.
Not because I desire agency over my IP above, but to deny the tech giants of it. I denied myself the most human of things to spite soulless corporations.
Lately I’ve been picking up those creative pursuits again, because what I’ve noticed is that the people that actually matter want you output anyway, even when everything created by anyone, ever, is at their fingertips.
Just FYI for all of you that used Interrail: looks like they had a breach including customer and reservation info. They also apparently took down the Ticket Inspection API during investigation today which apparently caused some issues in the UK, because UK apps still cannot actually read the barcodes properly...
