Unless we descend into full blown civil war or something I see only a few ways I can meaningfully continue to make a difference fighting capitalisms late-stage Rome-burning.
1. Repair technology they don’t want you to continue using.
2. Advance equity in all forms.
3. Boycott as many services as possible to still maintain a modern livable life.
4. Teach my kids how to do all those things.
May the 21st is Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD).

The sticker reads, “This machine has no brain. Use your own.”

Elegant writing as always. Read it folks!
So many tech bros are coming at me right now arguing that yes, in fact, Windows users or Facebook users don't deserve privacy.
Busting out the bold markdown for this: you're wrong.
Everyone deserves privacy.
Kyiv Type Foundry have digitised six typefaces from historical Kyiv subway station signage. Their new 'Metro Fonts' are free for Ukrainians to use, donation-based for the rest of the world. Donations will be given to those in need.

Do not comply.
Do not share your ID or biometric data with abusive platforms requesting it. You have a choice to say no, complain, and leave.
This is an important act of resistance for the future of humanity.
This isn't just about privacy, this is also about safety, diversity, democracy, and human rights.

But if your employer requires you to use ‘AI’ anyway, Steve has a thing:

Edit away!
I'm sure some people will find my tone here confrontational:
Get used to it. I'm going to be even harsher not just on the companies making "AI", but also on people choosing to use it. You know what you're causing, and you choose not to care.
It’s coming. One week. 6 May.
I contributed a chapter on accessibility overlays, but the other 33 make it worth it.
