The device policy is simple. If you add a Corp account to any phone it's subject to device policy, including wipeout after you get fired. It's very obvious when you enroll.

Never, EU hates tech & its inherent effects on society. This investigation is an example of it.

> Google collects an enormous amount of personal data from people without a Google account

Can you provide an example?

No, it's still not ok to track hardware IDs even (especially) for that reason: https://developer.android.com/training/articles/user-data-id...

Also if you root your Android phone, wireshark their app, trace the traffic, and check the Manifest you'll see they are sending user's personal identifiers (non-resettable hardware IDs) to servers in China. There's absolutely no way why uploading this data (or reading it in the first place) would be in any way necessary to provide the app's functionality.

And they dump/read files in shared storage spaces to cross-tracking with other Chinese apps. If you try to install it into Secure Folder on Samsung it gets disabled.

Because they came up with it.

Just quit Google this year after 5 years to start a startup. Never going back. The network of people built over 5 years is incredibly useful.

So how should an investor prepare today to the inevitable consequences of climate change?

On the contrary, these activists are a big downside of working at Google, especially when they are dragging everybody else in. People just want to work on good products in a respectful environment. I wouldn't be surprised if a vast majority of top performers would support firing these people.

Can you attach a source?

Edit: Why are people downvoting me for asking for a source?

Was this an AI-generated sentence?

You can just venmo your friends.

Is Elastic going to be punished under GDPR especially given that it's a Dutch company?

People keep saying that, but I don't really buy it. Scanning barcodes isn't really necessary when you have everybody with a credit card and every local merchant accepts NFC payment. Everybody using crappy unencrypted JS-based WeChat mini-programs instead of an app ecosystem is not an innovation but rather a way to lock and monitor the entire population with no privacy. Same goes for police-state facial recognition.

So form a partnership with US firm, extract IP and know-how, launch a clone in China, and part ways. Sounds like a standard approach.

What do you have against Luxembourg?

Hospitals don't care about hearts, minds, or patient wellbeing for that matter.

You will be brought there and they will extract $8000 for a simple procedure. That's all that matters for them.

> even with the analytically sophisticated HN crowd

Do you have a source for this bold statement?

I'm pretty sure Google has seen an exodus of alienated top performers in the past years (who happen to be predominantly Asian and White males). So now Google is realizing that maybe demonizing their core demographic through fostering hostile identity politics inside the company is threatening their core advantage. I expect more crackdowns from the leadership in the future, including restrictions on Memegen and other toxic internal forums.

I cannot stress enough how bizarre the internal politics truly were now that I left Google. It's interesting to see posts from Xoogler activists in Xoogler boards who try to introduce themselves as some sort of oppressed heroes, only to be stonewalled by the alumni community who couldn't care less about their PC agenda now that their career isn't held siege to PC whims.

Bought a scooter for $400 on Amazon, and it paid off in less than 2 months.

Same company that vowed to set up an internal ethics panel and promised that they aren't doing much business in Xinjiang.

> McDonald's also lacks network effects, though it does have some brand loyalty

McDonald's is top 10 most valuable brand in the world. It has massive brand loyalty & defensibility through it.

Google is banned in China along with almost all other US & European tech.

You're being downvoted but state subsidies are one of the largest concerns US/EU have with China, so it's a valid point.

Not to say that TikTok doesn't have any revenue at all, they have ads.

You're making up facts. US is actively restricting Huawei from doing business with them.

Some people prefer to avoid the sun, especially during the high UV-index hours.

Sometimes extra social interactions is the last thing I want after interacting all day at work.

I'm really hoping for India, the world's largest democracy, to overtake China as an industrial and tech powerhouse of Asia in the next 10-20 years.

What happens if you buy heroin, overdose, and pass out on the street with permanent brain damage?

This article is a nationalist piece with few to no logical arguments. It's meant to spread a flamewar online.
