So a bunch of kids held an anti-ICE protest at their school, and a doucheshit nazi kid showed up in Facebook spy glasses with a "I Love ICE" sign to be a troll. Then he proceeded to get his shit shoved in by another kid, who's now being hero-memed and it is glorious.

Dear reporters, please ask why they need to build all these concentration camps if they're supposed to be deporting all these people.

Mark Zuckerberg and his minions at Meta see our slide into fascism -- which Zuckerberg actively funds, and Facebook actively profits from -- as a good product launch opportunity for facial recognition stalkerware goggles.

Screenshot text pulled from NYT story: Meta’s internal memo said the political tumult in the United States was good timing for the feature’s release.

“We will launch during a dynamic political environment where
many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would
have their resources focused on other concerns,” according to the
document from Meta’s Reality Labs

"Meta’s internal memo said the political tumult in the United States was good timing for the feature’s release.

“We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns,” according to the document from Meta’s Reality Labs, which works on hardware including smart glasses."

Two stories, side by side, in the NY Times Technology section.

The first story is captioned "Meta plans to add facial recognition technology to its smart glasses"; the second is "Iran turns to digital surveillance tools to track down protesters."

Not shocked at all that Benj Edwards fell into the AI oubliette and is now producing fake news slop.

Putting this here so all can see it. Ars forum thread where the pull and investigation are mentioned: arstechnica.com/civis/threads/

It sure looks like Benj Edwards and Kyle Orland at @arstechnica used a badly behaved chatbot to write their article about somebody else's badly behaved chatbot. At the very least, they signed off on bunch of fabricated quotes.

Ars Technica used to be so good.
