LinkedIn generated $15.7 billion revenue in 2023, an increase of 7.4% year-on-year

Basically, Goodrazi got touchy when asked about his organization’s efforts to neutralize government-spearheaded free tax filing programs. He hit back that Patel’s question — the editor said that Intuit is “legendary for lobbying against free direct federal e-filing” and then straightforwardly asked how much of their budget is allocated towards lobbying efforts — was “fundamentally” based in the “wrong premise” and was “inaccurate,” before declaring that Intuit doesn’t “lobby against free.”

Ah, a troll gotcha. Nowhere did I say China was good. That is just a bad faith take. I was hoping you were actually trying to learn. Don’t bother responding, you are blocked.

Censorship, what does that have to do with the current conversation of the United States attempts at censorship of the Pro-Palestine narrative?

My friend, do you think China does not benefit from the destabilization caused by putting the USA’s blatant support of the ongoing genocide in Gaza on display for all the world to see? Does China have USA’s best interest at heart, no. Is this platform allowing the continued growth of Pro-Palestine support, yes.

The opposite, actually. I do agree that the “ban unless sold” situation with tiktok stems from lack of control over the narrative due to the crackdowns we are seeing on college protests.

Can’t wait to see what job they are turning into a gig next.

Careful with your phrasing, sounds like a dog whistle for antisemitism. I would phrase it: The USA is destroying what is left of it’s reputation to maintain a stronghold in the Middle East by allowing the IDF to commit various war crimes while colonizing Gaza and the West Bank. This is helped by AIPAC (Israel PAC) lobbying (legally bribing) US politicians with a lot of money.

I do agree that this Tiktok ban is more for content censure than protecting Americans. If they wanted to protect people, they would create hard data collection and selling regulation, then ban Tiktok if they violated it. I would like to see the data Facebook collects next to the data Tiktok collects.

I have seen the engineering failure that is the cybertruck, no thanks.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for the extra info!

I mean, I’ll take that as a good point in Tumblr’s favor.

I was able to do it from the app and it was already on. I don’t remember turning it on, so it might be default?

Edit: Just remembered that I did update the app today, so you might need to do that first.

Corpos are greedy for money and will attack anything that stands between them and it. That is until the Govt steps in, then the lobbiests fend it off with handfulls of money.

Cool, can we get a crackdown on the ISP monopolies, please? I would imagine with our current technology, the only thing stopping us from having faster download speeds is ISP throttling in order to make up different tiers for exorbant prices.

Look at those hands and the copy pasted faces, AI generated for real.
