A company does not have a holy right to make the world worse and put you in danger. There’s a cavernous space in politics for somebody right now to make this point and to make it loudly
It is really funny watching an entire industry of perennial hyperbole merchants lose control of the narrative and have to try and start saying stuff like “uhh it’s just software.” Absolutely beautiful
