Idiocracy at work.

Dave RahardjaI’m amazed when people still look up to techbro startup billionaire types. They are usually the worst humans on the planet, because it’s really, really hard to become a billionaire without being a sociopathic, manipulative, enshittifying parasite of a human being.
When will people learn?
Are you still on #Spotify?
Spotify’s CEO Daniel Ek has raised €600M for his new startup, which is developing AI TECH FOR WAR. Ek still owns 9% of Spotify, but has 37% voting control. His net worth went from $2.5B to $10B in the last two years alone, on the back of paying musicians a pittance in royalties.
And don’t forget:
• Spotify spent $250M of your subscription dollars to invite Joe Rogan to spew his disinformation on their platform.
• They’re still trying to embrace and extinguish Podcasts.
• They’re developing in-house, AI-generated “music” so users will play them (royalty-free) instead of music created by humans (who demand royalty).
And now, he’s using his wealth, created by your subscriptions, to fund tech that will use AI to literally murder humans in war.
Stop funding him. Quit Spotify now.

Malte EngelerSpeaking from experience: Taking a risk by calling things out can be a very isolating experience. Don't applaud people that do. Do as they did: Take a risk, speak up, call shit out.
Because the more people do so, the less risk everyone has to take. And eventually what was once daring to say has moved into the realm of ordinary again.

Dutch intelligence agencies say Russia increasing use of chemical weapons in Ukraine
Two Dutch intelligence agencies say that Russia is increasing its use of prohibited chemical weapons in Ukraine including the World War I-era poison gas chloropicrin. The Netherlands’ military intelligence and the security service together with the German intelligence service found the use of prohibited chemical weapons by the Russian military had become “standardized and commonplace.” The findings announced Friday say that the Russian military uses chloropicrin and riot control agent CS against sheltering Ukrainian soldiers who are then forced out into the open and shot. Russian authorities didn’t immediately comment on the findings. But they have denied using chemical weapons in the past.
