Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, while simultaneously removing apps that report the location of ICE officials because Google sees ICE as a vulnerable group. “It is time to choose sides; fascism or morality? Big tech has made their choice.”
Then it’s probably not a good idea to be on Lemmy. It’s written in Rust, which is a programming language funded by a lot of unapologetically evil big tech companies, like Microsoft and Google. It was also initially created by Mozilla, a company with heavy associations with Google and which has even become quite pro-AI.
I’d say using tools funded by evil counts as “loosely associated”.
But why? The company is different, it’s not the one that did that.
Same reason I will never buy a car brand even loosely associated with evil. Because they chose a side, and it isn’t the one I’m on.
Edit: love how there is a not insignificant lemmy users who dislike this comment. Know I’m saying “fuck you” to you too.
Edit 2: your down votes fuel my hatred for you pricks! Keep the hate coming!

I’m going to let you know I’m down voting & blocking you.
No hate, I just wish to not interact with you anymore.
Edit: vote manipulation is not a good look.
You’re being downvoted because of your shitty attitude and reluctance to actually read what people are saying to you.
Likely. I’m ok with it though.
Edit: need to add, there is at least one person here who doesn’t whipe their own ass.
Edit 2: there’s 3! Y’all suck. Not going to mince words. Y’all are terrible people. Full stop.
It’s not vote manipulation, you’re just a dick.

I get that, but brand doesn’t pick sides. The company behind it does. A lot of current companies have predecessors working for axis.
The company is responsible for the brand’s decisions.
And that company is Lenovo, not IBM.
Ok.
So you agree that boycotting ThinkPads because they used to be owned by IBM is a silly stance?
I’m not defending Lenovo, by the way. I personally boycott them because they shipped systems with bios level spyware.
Yes. Fuck ibm and Lenovo.
Edit:, legit worried about the fuckers that voted for this.
