"It's beyond farce. After all, whatever harms you believe the internet is inflicting on kids – and there's absolutely some kids who are being harmed by their internet use – those harms all start with surveillance. Your kids can't be targeted by algorithms without the surveillance data that's being used to target them."

@pluralistic@mamot.fr article is in Danish, but it is about Wolt delivery people striking in Denmark because Wolt is (surprise) twiddling their pay.
The workers are striking/counter twiddling by getting together and mass rejecting pickup orders thus driving up the pay per pickup.

@bettina @svuorela @anderslund men tonen i deres indlæg er aggressiv og konfrontatorisk, hvilket ikke er fremmende for en debat.

@PeterSommerlad @cstross where does one do that in the EU (assuming that is what you did)?
Det var da godt, at de fik indført den lov om vanvidsbilisme. 5.000 sigtet siden den blev introduceret i 2021.
Men det er cyklister, som er farlige *Gene Wilder som Willy Wonka meme*

@gary_alderson@infosec.exchange @HI_Greens@mastodon.scot less accountable, I think you will find.
There is no democratic transparency and they are only beholden to their owners/shareholders.
