I can’t tolerate surveillance software on my PC that I use to develop surveillance software!
- Facebook employees
Except this surveillance software is for training AI that will probably replace them.
Live by the slop, die by the slop.
Lol, imagine working at an evil empire and this being your biggest annoyance.
Actually so absurd yeah. Im still on their side from a workers perspective, but also they are part of the reason this shit exists…
Came here to say this. They facilitate so much violence and bloodshed, and this is what they take issue with.
What kind of fucker works at Meta?
“Hey, the massive spy machine isn’t supposed to be used on us!”
Employees working for evil company: “Hey evil company don’t do evil stuff to us”
Evil company does evil thing to them
Employees: =O
Employees*
I see, so the Meta employees have the typical conservative mindset: any misdeed is perfectly fine as long as it doesn’t affect you personally.
That’s what I thought - it’s probably not just the employees of social media companies who feel this way, but also those at Palantir and similar. Not to mention the “defense” contractors and the like.
I really wonder how these people can still look at themselves in the mirror.
ah so it’s fine when you develop software and tools to spy on your userbase and hell people who aren’t even in your userbase but when it comes to the higher ups at meta using YOUR data to train YOUR AI that’s too far huh?
obviously a layoff tactic. Their AI group shit the bed after they burned millions on
third lifethe zuckerverseobviously a layoff tactic.
It sure smells like it, right? But, and I’m repeating myself and others, the important part here is that, if it is a layoff tactic, it’s a horrible one: as per the Dead Sea Effect, the people who leave as a result of declining workplace environment are those most able to leave, i.e the most employable staff, with each round of departures. Thus, the people whom Meta would want to stay around are the people most likely to find, get, and depart for jobs elsewhere. And while Meta are bastards, the mechanics of working in a massive org like that one score really well for skills companies want.
I wish them luck in this terrible job market, and hope they can find a supportive environment again. We can always do with more smart people working for the greater good instead of against it.
Millions? Try $77 B-b-billion.
Install an autoclicker/autotyper HID USB key that, when it senses and idle computer, spams clicks and keystrokes at plausible spoeds, but which outputs pseudorandom nonsense, to muddy the data pool and produce far more incoherent data than coherent data
This is my kind of kink. No cap.
I’d be tempted to modify my user environment as much as possible, so the ways I use it wouldn’t be transferrable to anyone else’s environment. I’ve already done this to some extent, with e.g. nonstandard command line aliases and highly-customized wrapper scripts around the tools I use a lot.
Torment Nexus devs protest being tormented.
It’s always just a matter of time until you’re not part of the protected in-group anymore…
Zuck is having all his keystrokes recorded too, right? Right?
Make sure the AI engineers get that data. Especially the passwords to his and the company’s bank accounts. All his accounts, actually.
There’s a reason why most businesses don’t implement keystroke logging.
Mine has been doing it for once half a year. Really sinister and illegal shit for my state of CA.
You work at meta or you have keyloggers for some other reason?
The fuckers have become the fuckee’s.
Meta has always been surveillance, and pushing propaganda, thats the only thing meta does.
So quit them.
Zuck wants to quit them.
