codesternewson Google Docs will “warn you away from inappropriate words”

There is no reason to put this feature. This is political feature and can be used in many ways and affects other countries and cultres you cant imagine

There are second order and third order consequences of having this kind of features.

Google should not push their politics and agenda on other countries and cultures. It affects every other country in different ways.

In future this kind of feature can be used in many ways we dont know.

codesternewson Google Docs will “warn you away from inappropriate words”

There is no issues of inclusivines in our country. Why US always want to push their culture on other groups and countries.

We have no issues regrading inclusivity. Most people are very polite and dont have issue. Please (Google, Big Tech) stop pushing your agendas on other countries.

codesternewson Google Docs will “warn you away from inappropriate words”

This is pretty scary. Inclusivity fine but what else can they push and censor.

I am from different country and most of the words are gender neutral which in US pretty big deal like (landlord, guys - which is gender neutral in our country).

Its like pushing your culture on different countries. I don't want to see the Americanisation on our country cultures.

There is no issues of inclusivity in our country. Google is pushing their agenda on different groups, cultures and countries,

This is how it starts.

codesternewson Facebook threatens to leave Europe over privacy laws, regulators say ‘please do’

Saying I use their tools and frameworks against privacy makes no sense.

I am not saying we should not address it. But his argument against privacy with frameworks and saying facebook did good is total irrelevant and make no sense.

codesternewson Apple admits it ranked its Files app ahead of competitor Dropbox

I am developer of mac app which rely on system events. From mojave each time I request for permission user see popup this app wants to control etc etc. I got it but every time? It killed lots of apps.

codesternewson Apple admits it ranked its Files app ahead of competitor Dropbox

Apple has made life of small developers hard. Mac software and app industry has died. Even after notarising apps they show malicious popup to users.

Same practices has adapted by apple like search ad etc etc. They make competing services and steal ideas of developers and those app dies. For eg screen time for Moments app.

They have unfair advantage and small developers could not complete. Only handful of indie developers making money from appstore and rest apps have died.

They killed the industry.

codesternewson Apple admits it ranked its Files app ahead of competitor Dropbox

Lots of people raised voices but you need to understand they are small and no one wants to fight app while making leaving

codesternewson Apple admits it ranked its Files app ahead of competitor Dropbox

Even they show now popup and permission on mac. It made lots of app and developers living miserable. They are showing popups for permission every where.

Thats why there is no income now for indie developers in appstore

codesternewson Google fined €100M by Italian antitrust over Google Play abuse of dominance

I agree with you, But you know there are different rules for each app.

Small developers don't get same access as big developers and their apps get klled for smallest reason just by having some obscure policy or change in policy.

Developers don't have same access as Apple google eg: Screen Time
