This article is factual yet also rage-bait. Suspending accounts is something he’s doing now. Contacting employers of people working at car companies and investment firms is something he did five years ago. The article does not say he is contacting the employer of accounts he is suspending now; they leave you to infer that by placing both facts in the same headline but separate paragraphs.
No love for Musk, avoid Twitter, etc.
Isn’t this already happening? Man locked out of smart home for a week after delivery driver accuses him of being racist.
I am seriously considering discontinuing my use of Amazon Echo devices
Only just considering it? That’s some serious Stockholm Syndrome energy.
That dude 100% deserved it. Not for anything he said but for being a tech career guy and wiring his house up so hard he couldn’t open it without Alexa. He wouldn’t have been able to open it without wifi either.
If you’re going all in on smart home shit, you should ALWAYS buy the products that work when the internet goes out, or when the local IoT network shits out.
Example, fuck Hue lights. Gets Caseta switches that are wired in and can be used like real switches. Don’t get a smart lock that requires a phone or a wireless pays. Get one that also has a keypad that is hardwired directly into the lock and has a normal key hole. Carry the key just incase.
Recordings from the home’s smart doorbell appeared to show the delivery driver, whom Mr Jackson said was the same race as him, misheard an automated response from the device asking: “excuse me, can I help you?”
Seriously, that’s what it was? They’ll ban him for that?
It’s almost as if this Elon Musk guy is a giant cunt or something.
Aaaand done. Now I’ve deactivated all my Twitter accounts too. ¯\(ツ)/¯
This #shitpimple …Jeez… I can’t even stand to be associated with the platform now.Edit: I just realized that the article is rage bait and that those two things have no connection to one another but still, I stand by my words and actions. I don’t need Twitter in my life.
