This is the rot at the core. The root cause of every systemic problem in America. Every last one. It is also the harbinger of American fascism.

The worst part of Equifax is you have no say in the matter. No signing up for the "service", no opt-in. Just "We're gonna track all of your finances, sell your data to anybody willing to pay for it, and leave it on this un-secure computer in the corner over here for somebody to steal." Absolute dogshit corp. Sure you can "freeze" your credit report, but it doesn't stop the data collection.
The Tate bros would be a whole new Epstein scandal, if the press, both traditional and alternate would do their jobs.

@SomeGadgetGuy@techhub.social I was just pointing out to my partner this week how "Melania" is the very first thing you see when you open up the Apple TV, despite the fact that nobody other than Trump has the slightest interest in watching it.

Yes, the techbros have ensured the pain is already baked in. The best we can do now is rip the band-aid off and deal with it before it gets any worse.

@neurovagrant We invented tech vulnerable to classic computer viruses, and social engineering too! Best of both worlds!

@inthehands@hachyderm.io I agree. I think the good AI future is a constellation of focused, efficient, accessible, privacy respecting llms, “agents” whatever you want to call them. The bad AI future is the one certain corporations are trying to manifest. Bloated, manipulative, expensive, climate destroying, destructive subscription based extractive “services”.

This is, again, a direct consequence of the mass layoffs of thousands of engineers so the c-suite can line their pockets with stock buybacks instead of paying people. The labor class that's running scared because they can be fired on a whim is just icing on their cake.
