Gregory's Server@Em0nM4stodon Oh, I know, I know. We’re not at liberty to desist from the work, etc. I get it. But nothing else I have ever done is quite as thankless. I look back on the “ethical guidelines for ubiquitous computing” I first started framing out toward the end of 2004, and think: how arrogant, how thoroughly naive can someone be as to try and wrap an industry in ethics?
@Em0nM4stodon And I feel like a whole new generation is learning what reward Cassandra earns, and then the redoubled pain of seeing the same people who’d hyped the damn thing all along belatedly Get Religion & have the mainstream media fall all over themselves to anoint them brave seers. The whole cycle is so grotesque.
