That’s already very common and should be shut down, but usually it applies to the particular service you are using… Not whatever this bullshit is…

Simple example from yesterday: My stupid pixel 8 phone has a green line on the screen. I look up how to get warrantee and think “wow, at least Google knowing everything about me will be helpful in this case” and after a few misdirects to garbage online user forum to try and get me to solve this problem myself I get prompted with “which device is the problem?”
Google pixel 8
Some camera I had but was stolen, and google knows this because they refused to replace it even though I went through the bother to report it stolen to police because they claim they will send a new one
So I click the phone next page says “this phone?” -serial number
Click
That you bought on this date from us?
Click
Good news it’s under warranty! Would you like to start the process?
Thought I’d already started it but… Click
Please enter the serial number or IMwhatever code. Click here for instructions on where to find this on your phone.
… Click back 2 pages, copy and paste the # they told me
WRONG CODE
take the space that was at the front for some reason
Great! Here are the next steps…
Me: wtf is this garbage…
Answering honestly: so that shitty people can like shitty things without the consequences. They can broadcast their views without having to answer for them, and down the line it’s easier to manipulate likes so Elon can sell likes or remove likes from anything he pleases, which allows twitter to create “public opinion” that won’t be in line with actual public opinion.
Great content isn’t necessarily everyone’s prefered content. Having it all in one place helps people who want to see it see it and people who don’t don’t have to. Win win.

I think human memory and recollection is too inconsistent to apply that label fairly.
If the cops had been around the corner when it happened and then claimed they saw it then you are right, they should face equal consequences for lying.
But if they were near enough (and the video shows some of them? Than a combination of the sounds and movement and immediate aftermath can and does totally shift your perception of reality.
Quick story: I was at work and I heard someone say something angry behind me. I turned around and “Bob” suddenly shoved “Alex”. Alex shoved back and they started screaming. I got in between and broke it up, facing Bob and basically keeping him from continuing after Alex. The bosses showed up and Bob started going off screaming about how his was gonna kick Alex’s ass and let’s go outside and blah bla blah he shoved me!
I barked at him “You shoved Alex first you need to calm down!”
And he stopped dead and looked at me. “FUCK YOU YOU LIAR.” And a rant about how I was best friends with Alex (I wasn’t, but sure did like him more than Bob) and I would like to get him fired ect ect.
Now Bob was (probably is) an asshole. He ended up getting fired for berating a coworker and then coming to blows with a supervisor who told him to knock it off.
But after I dismissed his accusations and moved on with my day, I started to think about what happened.
I didn’t see anything before I turned around. But I did hear a yell, like a yelp… Like someone being hit…
So I was 100% convinced of what happened, until I gave it some deep thought much later. If Alex had have stepped up and said “yeah! That’s what happened!” I don’t think I would have ever second guessed it, I would have put my career and reputation on the line…
Anyways, they may be fully lying and colluding, but there is a non-zeeo chance they “remembered” it like the victim claims.
ACAB but I wouldn’t put too much weight in the other officers intentionally lying. The incident happened so fast I’d assume 3 of the 4 didnt even catch it from the right angle and are just going off of what Dumbo says happened.
Cancan Dan should go to prison for the same sentence as the crime he falsely accused the driver of.
Then the driver should have been charged with those offences. Also I have no idea how YOU know he was breaking any traffic laws from that video. The officer onsite indicates the lights are not to be trusted, and “speeding”, I’d love to see how you went about determining that from this video…
The cop played a stupid game and won a stupid prize. In a just world once he heals up he would go to jail for the same crime/time as he falsely accused the driver of. Oh well.
That was comedy gold and everybody missed it.
Is that what they meant?! I had given up. Thanks.
I’ve never heard mine name drop any business and I use it all the time… I’m in Canada so maybe there’s a difference there?
How has your email transition been? I have been moving away from Google slowly for a few years/intentionally avoiding onboarding with Google services. I don’t use Chrome, no google search, haven’t used messenger ever, that sort of thing.
But moving away from Gmail is hard. Would love your thoughts.
So I paid for nebula, but it seems totally vacant. I’m not mad, I’m happy to spend the money supporting small creators/any independent endeavour, but am I missing something??
