Why not save money on office space by letting those employees to work from their home?
Because they can't control them at home.

Edge of Europe bordering Africa and it's aspiring immigrants. Italy is often the first stop for immigrant boats, and on-shoring desperate people. All a right wing government has to do is point to those people and say how they are going to destroy everything you know. Rinse repeat, voila fascism.
Once your face is scanned it is disseminated to several databases both Federal and State, which can be leaky. It can be passed around law enforcement circles, used on mesh camera networks to record movements in public (China is an example) and potentially used against you in ways you might not be aware of yet. The Chinese via tiktok and other sources such as hacking, are building dossiers on every American citizen they can get their hands on. The "it's easy and I've got nothing to hide" rationale is what they're banking on, makes their job really simple. Hell, people take fucking selfies and post them along with their name in the clear on the internet all time, those posts are scraped for security data and identity.
It's been common parlance at least since Apple wanted to implement CSAM scanning of all iCloud saved images through a hashing technique. The backlash was so strong Apple now opposes CSAM scanning. This was two years ago-ish.
You can fuck aallll the way off with that condescending bullshit.
You had me at "zero taller ants".
It might help to understand that the GOP/Conservatives have no interest in being morally consistent. The only metric they have is our guys good, yours bad. Consistency doesn't matter, being a team player does, and the goal is unrestricted power. Once they have that they don't have to listen to anyone's criticisms. Stop trying to reason in response to them.
She's been expelled from the Hard right caucus, shes losing political capital with her antics. Calling Boebert a bitch wasn't a good move for her fascist buddies.
Political affiliation is not protected, religious affiliation is. It's true that the Right has been doing their level best to politicise their religious feelings into public life, so that barring Trump supporters effectively excludes Evangelicals and a majority of Catholics. This may not be their desired outcome, but perhaps they shouldn't have tied their religious sentiment to political causes.
AMC is a huge multiplex chain, they seem to own about half of all theatres in the US, as a result they can overcharge to their heart's content because they might be the only one in town with the movie you want to see. They also attempt to pass their service off as a "premium" experience. In reality it just means larger seats. For this they've destroyed the movie-going experience. Not much love lost on my end, however, I'm not really a movie person. It mostly sucks when my child really wants to see something.
All of this, scroll down a bit to App Privacy and see that you have none. BTW, the "sensitive info" is racial, sexual and biometric data. Apps themselves are privacy-destroying, always look carefully at the app privacy. Check out the Mastodon app as a contrast, it wants none of your data.
Capitalism exploits resources with an eye on ever-increasing "growth". Capitalism abhors anything that either lessens "growth" or doesn't actively encourage it. Growth for growth's sake is a dead-end road, one we're rapidly approaching. That China had the same mindset isn't an aberration, the CCP and Chinese economy leverages the tools of Capitalism and the proceeds go to Communism (and corruption), to fuel stratospheric growth in order to counter Western hegemony. That China embraced Capitalistic growth models is a means to an end, it may be called Communistic Capitalism. It's an economic model, not a political one.
Think I missed the "actually do it" part, definitely changes the context. I did a bad.
How do you clean your ears, bellybutton, toes? And hopefully in that order. Some stuff needs extra attention, and some people have different skin types than you. Go scrub out your toes.
Just a moment to note that Apple backtracked on all those threats about CSAM scanning and now doesn't support the technology being implemented.
Permissions to grab the data in your phone. When you authorize the app by installing and agreeing to terms you are giving a green light for it to suck up all the data you have put in the device as well as anything you do ongoing. That means the app tracks your current location, purchases through your phone, contacts list, email accounts, etc, basically anything inputted into your phone the app has access to, except for the walled off stuff that Apple protects, like unique thumbprint or facial recognition ID. About 95% of the stuff in your phone is up for grabs with that app.
The fix was in on our climate by the 90's, the Co2 levels are above 450 ppm. This doesn't have an equivalent in many millions of years. The effects of heat building is cumulative, the earth still has plenty more room to store heat energy, and we've already put more than enough Co2 in the atmosphere to warm well past 2C. We've got years left, not decades. Wait till food distribution systems break down, that's when it'll hit everyone that this is already a done deal. Things will begin to break down rapidly in the next few years.
He has three sets of charges coming total for now. "Honorable" Aileen Cannon is just one judge in his pocket for one set of charges. Other judges won't be bought or threatened into letting him slither away.
"Some people in UK government maybe consider thinking about doing something because something happened". Much better title.
Porque no los dos?
This is a great essay and an insightful read, thanks.
I've been boycotting them for over a year, this policy isn't new.
If you're going to continue going to bat for Capitalism as your growth fueled world begins to burn around you, you might consider putting the blame at the feet of the petrochemical industry which is decidedly Capitalist. Have a nice day.
This method reminds me of someone but I can't put my finger on it.
The chances you are neoliberal isn't zero.
Oil production and distribution is an international operation, and oil markets are just that, Markets. Very few if any countries drill, produce, refine and consume their own petroleum sources. Most countries may have only one or a couple facilities that can extract or refine oil. All crude oil is assessed by its grade and given a value on the international market. Extractive economies (Russia for example) have to either refine and consume their own product which they can't use to put currency in their economy or they sell raw crude to, say, India for US Dollars. India will either refine it for it's own needs or sell it at market. Canada extracts it's oil from oil sands, sends it down to the gulf coast for refining and transshipment to other markets. This is classically a Capitalist supply and demand market, and oil producing countries use oil proceeds to buy foreign currency reserves, regardless of their political system. The entirety of it is Capitalist from beginning to end.
That you're even attempting to try and deflect the various excesses of Capitalism with specious reasoning like "Communist countries produce oil too so not Capitalism" is puerile and an argument in bad faith. You're trying to work back towards your hypothesis "Capitalism good" without doing the work of actually building the argument. Your ineffective points are useless and wholly unconvincing. You're just a shill without an intellectual understanding of what you are attempting to put across. Your ham-fisted defense of Capitalism is simple refutation, you haven't posited anything yourself, you're just attempting to refute what other's have responded to your bait question. Saying "nuh-uh" isn't a defense or a rationale.
I've wasted more time on this than I cared to.
Yeah but it's not a fucking city dude, the comments are addressing the hyperbole in the comment.
Considering the title and the entire article is in the future tense I'm going out on a limb here and stating that Apple has not yet pulled those products from the UK market.
I remember watching a black comedian many years ago and his bit started "Why don't white people use washcloths?", and it got me thinking. I started using washcloths and noticed I came away cleaner, soap on a hand doesn't cut the skin oils and dirt like soap and gentle abrasion can. I also noticed, because I'm hairy, that I get lots of ingrown hairs, especially on my legs. Switched to one of those "poofs" and now I vigorously scrub my hairy bits and no ingrown hairs. Exfoliating helps.
Use a washcloth and don't forget to brush your tongue, you filthy animal.
