Someone just mentioned the differences between #Twitter and #Google regarding user data. Yes, indeed.

I've worked inside #Google twice. Their explicit rules, approvals, logging and "need to know" requirements for access to user data are most impressive. Anyone even attempting to access user data inappropriately is fired and marched out the door by security. This is part of why I have a great deal of trust in Google, and consider Elon's #Twitter to be utterly untrustworthy and totally beneath contempt.

"Their explicit rules, approvals, logging and "need to know" requirements for access to user data are most impressive."

Yes, they sell all the data, evilly obtained, to the highest bidder.

You're acting as an apologist for the world's worst surveillance capitalist.

@fedi They do not sell user data to any outside entities. They never have. I've been in there and seen how it works firsthand. Have you?

@lauren Google steals the personal data of billions of people with impunity. They are beyond evil.
