I build those systems at a company that you definitely are aware of. I can’t discuss it further due to my NDA.

Feel free to ignore that any of this exists of course - it makes our lives easier. It’s a constant arms race regardless.



Then I have 2 questions:

- Why are they not flagging more content? Am I right they're boiling the frog slowly? Do they lack an endgoal because management does not yet understand the power of these tools?

- Do you do your job poorly on purpose? Did you take it so somebody else wouldn't build an even better system? Did you think you could influence it in a direction which does not lead to total surveillance? (I assume any reasonable intelligent person would be against further increasing the power imbalance corporations have against individuals for both moral reasons and because they are individuals themselves who understand the machine can and will be used against them too.)


Have you stopped beating your wife yet?

Cut the bullshit.


So you support greater inequality? If not, why the personal attacks?
