Years ago, after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I interviewed a former fb employee, and I remember her continually emphasizing that these tech bros weren't evil geniuses, but were, in fact, dangerous because they were utterly clueless, totally reckless, and had too much power.

What I mean by that is we tend to focus on issues such as bias, transparency, errors when it comes to technology (all importantly) but less about the motives and agenda of the people behind these companies.

A tech billionaire, the richest man on the planet, has taken over fed government and wasted no time gutting critical agencies and federal spending on services that ppl survive on. Devastating and serious wake up call for everyone organizing in the social movement left

CFPB halts work after Trump appoints Bessent as acting head
The consumer watchdog agency was formed in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. Elon Musk wants to “delete” it.
The CFPB exists to protect YOUR data and interests, stand up to giant corporations, and bring BILLIONS of dollars back to the American people who are scammed out of their hard-earned money.
Trump’s appointee just froze the entire bureau’s work. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve
