Wrong, it's a slight of hand. This is not about individual cameras, this is about the network that uses all cameras together to follow you no matter what you do, no matter where you go, people shouldn't have a government that follows their every step by using AI and networked devices. If this was about individual cameras you would have a point, it is not, it is unreasonable to allow a government to exist that creates a panopticon of this scale, citizens shouldn't feel like they are inside a prison and the warden is watching.

"Mostly" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here:

So three out of seven got home confinement, but one of them had it come after the completion of a prison sentence. One of the remaining two was "a contract intelligence analyst" which is hardly an executive. The last is "a manager of global intelligence" who reported to someone who got prison time ("senior manager of global intelligence) so I would also say "not an executive."

WRT to the CEO, I agree he got off easy and should have been prosecuted, for, at the very least, destruction of evidence. It appears his response to being notified of a litigation hold because there was an ongoing criminal probe was to... delete everything.

Oddly, the wikipedia page disagrees with the lengths of various sentences but does tend to support that "home confinement" was not really how executives were handled. It also mentions Ebay's internal investigation (which was conducted by an outside party) found that he neither directed that knew criminal acts would follow. While I am suspicious of "we investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing," the outside firm suggests this was above board. One would hazard to guess that the destroyed evidence may very well have shown that he did, but here we are.

By the way, your sig is amusing as heck.

Did that include the graphic card in that laptop or not ?

Yeah, a lot of jobs are done with their body. I never understood the people who oppose sex work because "it uses the body" or similar arguments. A lot of jobs are physical and will destroy you over time. What about a mountain guide and his rotten knees, a wallbuilder and his painful back, an electrician with crawling on his knees and repeated shocks, a plumber with handling shit, etc, etc...

It wasn't "anything goes" before capitalism. In Europe it was often king-given monopolies. The first one to do something could often get a monopoly for life (and sometimes even more) to continue doing it. A lot of industries were controlled like that, and it crushed any competition or hope for technical improvements. It also applied to unions (trade unions of which only one per job existed and you were not allowed to work if you were not a member). It even applied to weird things like composing/performing musicals (for Lully in France under Louis XIV for instance).

And a funeral wreath. And, apparently, a plan to send Polynesian gangsters (one imagines that this might consist of Dwayne Johnson showing up at their house singing "What can I say, except, Ex-tor-tion!") though it thankfully appears that did not come to fruition.

They are. The summary states that seven former employees pled guilty to criminal charges. I know it's tradition not to RTFA, but you are supposed to at least RTFS.

Almost certainly true. At the cost of double the individual median income, per annum, which is about the same as housing someone on death row. To lock someone in a box for 23 hours a day, which is almost certainly "cruel and unusual punishment" in and of itself.

Definitely NOT the solution.

Meh. The Disney/Hulu/ESPN bundle is worth it year round. Disney content for my kids, Hulu content for my wife, sports for me. Can't tell you a day in the last five years it hasn't been running on one or more devices in my house.

Has Telemundo content, so you got every World Cup match if you were willing to watch in Spanish rather than having to spend $20/month for Fox to watch them otherwise. You also get a decent amount of global soccer games, most notably EPL. Peacock can almost always be found with a bargain basement price so it's actually a good deal if you like soccer. The Law & Order reruns are just gravy.

> it's amazing how little we know about what happened.

Agreed. This is definitely a PR stunt. Nothing but red flags in this PR (public relations vs press release, either way, lies to sell you more shit).
