Content moderators deserve more respect from platforms. That's what they ask for first, not pay, not more holidays but respect. Instead, moderators at TikTok were given the axe for unionising. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

We all said not only this would happen, but it would be the thing that eventually lands GenAI in the tabloid press for non client journalism reasons.

Would anyone read an account of all the dumb/illegal/unethical/bullying that a major fruit-themed company inflicts upon its workers?

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to benefit my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Strategic layoffs have been obviously cynically motivated to us in the union movement (especially those that cite 'AI') for some time. Seems like Goldman Sachs is catching up. fortune.com/2025/12/25/g...

I’m not worried that the AI bubble will herald the end of capitalism as we know it - or even the end of the AI boom. I'm worried that it will result in a massive upwards transfer of wealth - and further endanger our democracies in the process. graceblakeley.substack.com/p/the-ai-cir...

TikTok is getting rid of the London staff who keep you safe from harmful, misleading and illegal content. When did they announce the job cuts? Eight days before those employees were due to vote on unionising. We’ve signed an open letter with @tuc.org.uk and @cwunews.bsky.social:

Really hard to engage with this app when Palestinian accounts are so routinely removed for simply asking for help during an active fucking genocide where they watch their kids starve. I spoke to someone who I can't even tag on here just now BECAUSE HER ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN DELETED 15 times. Shame.

Youth pastor voice: You know who else took on a globally important leadership role at the age of 33?

okay as scary as these sound, can everybody please understand that these people have absolutely no privileged knowledge, and - especially in the case of someone like Sal Khan - they often are just management consultants that go from meeting to meeting saying "okay great" and nothing else

The problem with hiring a global union-busting firm is that the more they use the 'playbook' the more it becomes known, and then the easier it is to innoculate working people against big businesses telling them that unions are bad for them.

Gazan accounts seem to have been erased from this platform systematically, which is a mark of shame for BSky, but I'm going to still ask anyone to donate what they can to Nancy, whose family I talk to every day and are struggling with essentials as you'd expect. chuffed.org/project/supp...
