The stock price dive at Meta is pretty clearly due to the $10B hit from Apple’s Do Not Track Feature.

Meta should make a free Android phone that allows tracking.

These headlines are such BS. The Russia-Ukraine war and energy crisis won’t be resolved in the next ten years? Give me a break.

Don’t plot the amount of wild mammalian biomass, plot the amount of totally mammalian biomass.

Doubt you’ll see a downward hockey stick in that case.

What makes a wild mammal more special than a domestic one?

But "to any person", e.g., a CIA asset in the field might be exposed by a gmail user, thus threatening her/his life, thus pre-emptively disclose the gmailer's info to law enforcement?

Or imagine an idle threat is made off-hand in a private gmail, so pre-emptively disclose that threat to law enforcement?

In the sci-fi Minority Report scenario, Google could use AI language models on all gmail to make a judgment call on "emergent danger of serious physical injury". If I plan to go bunjee jumping with an unreliable provider, Google scans my gmail and tells law enforcement?!?
