I find it alarming that to “protect” women, men have to be surveilled secretly in all public places. This is way beyond dystopian.

AI and remote security personnel get to decide if someone is “a predator” and take 'em down preemptively if they look suspicious.

What could possibly go wrong?

      Vetting, checking sources etc… is the first thing I do.
      Especially when alarm bells go off.
      first one BBC, second one tracking tech.
      Everyone should do it, would prevent a lot of misinformed opinions.

        I checked out the link, and noticed that the “we use cookies” obscuring pop-up does not disappear when one chooses to not accept “unnecessary” cookies. I guess we just have to power through the 20% screen loss unless we accept those cookies. Hard pass.

            Oh, yeah, that was my point, screen loss.

            I didn’t mean to point out the disrespect and clear statement that we either agree or have to suffer the annoyance of the equivalent of someone standing in front of us at a baseball game repeatedly asking if we would like to buy a hotdog.

            Why should we complain? We can still see the game around him, after all.
