IBM, also one of X’s biggest advertisers, announced it would stop advertising on X Thursday. The company made the decision in response to a report by liberal watchdog Media Matters that found both IBM and Apple’s ads running alongside hate speech. Musk called Media Matters an “evil organization” in response.
Whoever’s job it is to keep a dart gun trained on him, you might want to make sure it’s loaded. Dude’s crackin’.
They’ve admitted it a lot. Where are you getting that disinformation?
Well trying to find an actual statement is more difficult than I remember, but that could partially be due to Google ongoing enshittification. I did find this in a TIME article about the “IBM and the Holocaust” book from 2001:
Of course, not everyone agrees with Seltzer’s assessment — least of all IBM. Last week, the company released a statement: “If this book points to new and verifiable information that advances understanding of this tragic era, IBM will examine it and ask that appropriate scholars do the same.” But company spokespeople insist that Black’s allegations are not new, that historians have long been aware that the Nazis used IBM’s tabulating machines. And, spokespeople insist, the company is paying for its mistakes: IBM Germany, formerly Dehomag, has already paid into Germany’s government-sponsored initiative to compensate citizens forced to work for the Nazis.
I thought there was a lot more public acknowledgement though, and it’s hard to find. So - 50%?
Totally agree that huge social media systems need to be understood as disproportionately affecting misinformation. I don’t know anything about Telegram, though.
Are the pushback people fReEzE PeAChErs or something? Is Telegram just lovely? Dunno.
Two of these are not being pulverized by a nuclear power at the moment.
russia lost on day 4. The rest of this is to see how badly and in what ways. And to save as many Ukrainian lives and civic institutions as possible. Zelenskyy is focused on the latter, lives and infrastructure, as he should be. Slava Ukraini!
Exsqueeze me? What the amazon fuck, WholeFoods.
aAAaaaaahhhhhhhhhh-AHH!

Yes how can we horrify children
Wired. lol.
So more batshit-rightwingers-take-over-things-and-break-them?
SAD!
This is getting posted a lot which is too bad because it’s worse than useless.
Do people not understand how technically useless 80% of users are? They CAN NOT REMEMBER THEIR PASSWORDS. (No, they didn’t write them down. Password management software? lol.)
I’m saying the height of their technical ability is to remember their password. And we want them to switch platforms, away from a fascist right-wing brainwashing troll factory to- what is it called again?
Yeah. It needs a guide with this title, but actually useful. Well-written, with the context that people reading it are already well above and beyond in making an effort.
Why are so many people still on Xitter? I have a fucking idea.
There is already a strong, “not my Pope” movement in the US
lol
Right-wing mentality cannot allow being wrong. Its a huge problem affecting everyone.
There are a lot of executives at oil companies.
If the title isn’t what the article’s about, that’s not our fault . . .
“roots as a protest tool” lol
“roots as a simple text repeater to harvest personal data for monetization”, yeah.
To Lukoil, of course.
Not Gazprom, those wankers. Lukoil. Beacon of . . y’know . . freedom or some shit. When the state-managed privately-run petroleum conglomerate buys your country’s main search engine, you know it’s a bad day.
