It is abhorrent to be living in times where political structures poised into existence on ideas of Liberty advocate for removal of essential Freedoms. United States and Europe both have their form of _chat control_ currently being debated. And country leaders see in this total mass-stalking nothing but a tool to fight some_ scary sounding form of possible oppression. They_ve convinced the public that they are right_ so much that when we are trying to come up with a reason of why what they are doing is wrong_ we fail even to start the train of thought. Their justification appears to be solid. It appears that there is nothing to do_ but to shut up_ agree and do nothing about it. Today I am about to shutter their arguments once and for all.
Mathematical prof that surveillance harms x 1K more than it could potentially help.
That’s actually quite epic. Good on you dude! I have have developed some similar concers except I’m not a longtime software developer. I’m just comfortable with coding.
Personally I would love working open-source or in a worker coop (though both seem like a kind of big ask locally) and my recent development of a leftist political orientation has given me an appetite for direct action. Though theres basically no anarchists or libertarians locally so I am interestingly enough working with ML’s. I don’t know how long this will satisfy me. I try not talking too much about “democratic” centeralism or lenin when I’m with them because enough those are red flags for me. (pun not intended)
… libertarians locally so I am interestingly enough working with ML’s.
for a moment there i couldn’t tell if ml stood for marxist/leninist like it in for lemmy.ml or if it mean machine learning. lol
and absolutely stay away FAR away from conversations about politics. my experience has taught me that highly placed/status-ed software engineers tend to be conservative (probably because of the money) and are perpetually on the hunt for dissident views to “protect” their “people” from “threats” and they will use their position to put you on a leash if they think you don’t fit in.
