I am so glad this exists, and take every opportunity to encourage friends and family to switch to it and avoid alternatives from companies with exploitative and unfair business models (like Adobe.)

Presumably the verification that these false matches are not problematic is manual? That's not good enough given how our media currently works. Imagine articles published when information about such a check leaks that say "celebri

As soon as ad supported free services start shutting down because of ad blocking and lowered clickthrough rates on ads because of targeting being blocked, most people will probably start changing their minds. (The alternative being maintain

+1.The fact that most current tech unions are more about $POLITICAL_ISSUE_OF_THE_DAY (e.g. forcing the company to stop working with organization X) instead of just workers' rights and compensation is what turns me off of them. I believ

One of the changes due to WFH that I'm happiest about is how all meetings are now online, which makes my inability* to find the right time to take a turn speaking in a conversation less of a problem (since it's possible to "r

The amusing bit about the controversy on this thread is that almost no one would agree to automatically add a footer to their messages that specifies their race, but that's sort of what this does and some people are actively advocating

A better headline would be "Facebook wants to inform users about the fact that scraping publicly available information is easy (and there's nothing wrong about that.)" Of course, that wouldn't get Vice as many clicks. Do
