Holy shit, all major #car #companies including #bmw , #ford , #toyota , #tesla , #kia , #subaru and more *all* #collect your #personal #data for any reason they want to and #sell it: https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/blog/p.. The type of data includes any #conversation you have, which somehow includes any #passenger you have in your #car !
Oh wow, #creditcard #companies in the #us are #restricting the #legal #purchase of #firearms https://www.zerohedge.com/political/gun-..
#sambankmanfried is being #softballed by #mainstream #media as apparently this kid that got in way over his head: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/did-.. Problem is, he #paid off #vox and other #news #companies with the #stolen #money . They *really* don't want an #investigation to look too far into this.
The #ftx saga keeps getting worse, with 130 #companies #filing #voluntary #proceedings https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/ftx-fi.. This could see a #contagion across multiple #markets and generally cripple #market confidence in all #crypto #coins . #tether is still #depegged from the #us #dollar - and the #us #dollar is currently performing poorly.
A lot of #companies are about to lose #billions in the #ftx #crypto #exchange , with very large #investors such as #blackrock and #softbank amongst them: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/here-a.. These same people have the #audacity to tell us how to #invest our #money , and tell us how to run our #society . Any person with a slightly fucntioning #brain could see #crypto #markets are a #scam . *IDIOTS.* Who will #pay ? It will be the #poor who cover their loss.

Seems like many #us #tech #companies are #reducing these days...#patreon making massive #cuts by #firing 17% of #staff , 80 people: https://blog.patreon.com/a-note-from-jac.. Apparently this is because of a poor #environment , i.e. a #failing #economy . Noteworthy is the #reduced #investment into #security .
This #banking #api is pretty cool: https://increase.com/ I imagine this would make all kinds of #companies possible!
#antwerp spitting #facts about the #eu 's #green #energy #agenda https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/a.. #companies will simply take their #business elsewhere . Apparently #banks and #finance are moving their #hq 's out of the #eu simply due to #energy #concerns .
Very interesting, #billgates #caught fuelling #money into anti- #elonmusk #companies because he " #threatens " to bring back #freespeech to #twitter https://youtube.com/watch?v=DPIXDsblr2E Madness.
Seems like a bunch of #governments will be handing out #payments to #offset against #energy #costs https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/german-.. Surely it would make sense just to temporarily #reduce #tax ? Anyway, I assume #companies will do all they can to #absorb these #additional #taxpayer #funds ...
Damn, looks like #companies are going to start #requiring that #contractors #install random #software on their #local #machines such that they can be #monitored at all times: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=295.. Very concerning trend.

At least #zulip will not create a #crypto shit #coin https://blog.zulip.com/2021/11/12/why-no.. It's really concerning how many #companies / #platforms are getting involved with the #blockchain - including #facebook , #telegram , #signal , #twitter and #reddit ... Probably the biggest reason not to #implement it is the fact that #chat and #socialmedia do not need this.
It appears as though some #telecom #companies are collecting #sim #usage #data - including #information about the #device they are running on! https://scribe.rip/telecom-expert/what-i.. Apparently #atandt are doing this for sure. It's just a #reminder that a #simcard is actually a tiny little #computer with a #cpu , #ram , #disk , etc.
Would you look at that, #blm 's #defund the #police movement that asked to also #decriminalise #petty #crime has #backfired - with #companies simply leaving #sanfrancisco https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/W.. #walgreens are closing 5 #stores - directly citing #thefts ...
Apparently tonnes of #crew #members are #stranded without #food and #pay - as #shipping #companies #refuse to #payout https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/we-c.. Absolute madness.
