Yes, all those people Meta just laid off due to whistleblowing on the Glass privacy violations, and their content moderators and data labelers and so on have my full support. No sympathies for anyone doing SW engineering or similar. Anyone

Do you think if there was a mass movement of students moving off Spotify and downloading MP3s, they would _not_ be charged today? The hypocrisy is what has at least me upset
