He also congratulated Trump on his win. So, infected by the same illness all tech leaders seem to have caught? Disappointing. Genocide is next level though. Imagine posting with Netanyahu and feeling proud of it? Yikes

Ugh, that was one of the (many) things I really liked about Google. It’s a shame our country is set up to reward low empathy people for doing sketchy stuff

Wow, that’s so not aligned with (what I thought were) Google’s values. Ugh

This is the kind of stuff Googlers used to oppose, and push leadership to do better. Individual employees felt Google was theirs too, and should represent their values. Did layoffs kill that spirit?

Am I the only one who thinks it is weird the secret service did this??

TJ McIntyre @tjmcintyre.com · 23d

This is absolutely wild: US Secret Service seizes "anonymous communications network with more than 100,000 SIM cards and 300 servers" in New York, targeting UN General Assembly? "Only a handful of countries could pull off such an operation, including Russia, China and Israel." archive.is/S4hkB

A handout photograph provided by the Secret Service showing racks of dismantled communications devices that were part of an anonymous network in the New York region. Approximately a gazillion antennas and what look like SIM cards inserted into flat devices.
