@aral and wealth isn't worth.

I so loath the phrase “his net worth is $xxx”

@jwildeboer Or his arguments have made his action less tainted…

Disappointed w “Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy” on Netflix

“Ex-insiders from the world's biggest brands share the manipulative tricks they use to keep customers consuming — at a devastating cost to our lives.”

Reveals… fuck all. Designers do a/b testing. Stores want to sell more. Plastic isn’t recyclable. More things produced means more trash.

@deceptivepatterns@masto.design could have added so much more. Not to mention surveillance capitalism…

@aral Ok, so then who provide browsers? Just Google and Apple?…

@aral I get that Mozilla getting into ads is unpopular. But you've also highlighted their dependancy on Google as problematic.

How would you recommend they fund themselves?

@stephaniewalter That’s what you think you do (and I agree). But is it what client think we do?
It's not about AI actually doing as good a job, it's about bosses/clients thinking it can.

@aral I need royalties on that term ;)

@thomholwerda @glynmoody Big risk here is for nazis to then take power in part of the EU/Nato, and then inherit all this war capacity :/

@RalphBassfeld @aral wanna bet that only hide them and they will keep and sell everything g forever anyway?

@aral * note: Company X, not the X company.

@aral That’s the same office that was repeatedly and strongly overruled by its EU wide counterparts for not doing their job properly?
