I wonder if the chatgpt shirtless guy is from the same kind of issue

Because bad neighborhoods are most generally seen as the HLM banlieue where most are not "white". It's a pretty obvious dog whistle from the RN.

I have multiple examples of "neutral" content being invaded by Israeli propaganda, and Facebook even admits they will only show "select comments" and won't allow you to see any other. Even sub comments won't show all responses but only pro Israeli. It's pretty clear that Meta favors these, and it's not just because of external actors trying to influence.

There is evidence here of influence on the Brazilian elections. They were working with Cambridge Analytics to influence British elections.

There has been multiple whistleblowers saying they are offering political favors. There as studies showing they do indeed prefer certain parties.

How long can we keep our heads in the sand? When will it be enough

Yes, they spy on you to see if you pirate movies, so most users already use a VPN to download their pirated medias. Thanks to Hadopi, the french already know how to bypass censorship and surveillance

Great for you but that's not how it works in France. They have been revolting on and off for decades/centuries, and the government know how to stifle it.

The police gas and break up most peaceful protests until there is no avenue left but to clash with the police. They regularly attack, maim, and kill people (either protesters or even bystanders, like the woman who was watching from her window and was targeted by a police explosive (confirmed not an accident but intentional police violence))

Agents provocateur instigate violence and looting, but the police never interrupt them like they do the peaceful kids. The images of riots play directly into the media and government hand who play the law and order angle. As evidenced by these news which only see it as rioting and not the government preventing any kind of protest.

They are using the unrest to try and ban the most popular leftist party in France. They are destroying what's left of democracy in the country.

Do you have any evidence of this? Apart from your racism ofc. Because we have evidence of the police doing and instigating the destruction

There are multiple videos from France showing undercover police instigating and breaking things.

Then, the government is pushing cities to denounce the most popular Left party as the instigator of the riots.

They are preparing to ban them next elections for this. It's pretty clear it's all a political maneuver to ensure it's once again Macron's party versus Marine's far right party, hoping it ensures their win against her

Expensive TV also spy on you, so spending more does not help

The manipulation is not in the algorithm but in the controls the algo offers, either to the company or to financial friends of the company. It's pretty blatant the way Meta is pushing far right politics everywhere in Europe, pushing pro Israeli propaganda while silencing opposing opinions.

It's not a secret that Meta is selling political preferences on its platform, as they have been for decades. Several Meta employee have blown the whistle about it already.

If even a tenth of all government licence fees went to improve open source alternatives, they would surpass Microsoft within a year. And every human on earth would benefit.

Instead we're being extorted by Microsoft for buggy software

Good luck with MS support when things go wrong. Your ticket will bounce between 7 different engineering services which will try their basic debug script before tossing you to another department, all after calling you at 4am.

Also, MS doesn't care anymore since they have the monopoly. Things go wrong? Tough shit you won't migrate somewhere else anyway, and will continue to spend millions for licences.

Yeah you're absolutely right, pretty sure the bribes have nothing to do with it and it's because open source is worse. /s

Will come the day Microsoft stops bribing politicians to stay on MS Office and Windows.

Unfortunately, most streamers don't have the best IT security knowledge, and with AI tools now allowing them more and more than what was previously possible, it also opens the door for more vibe coded apps that could have serious security holes.

Should the streamers' apps be more secure? Absolutely, but the underlying tool should also strive to be secure enough for all use cases.

Anyway, thanks for the two links, they were interesting reads.
