A system that benefits people who lie about objective facts should be destroyed.
If the tactical business decision is to look someone in the face and say “spending 2/3rds of a day, 16 whole hours, idly gazing at photos of anything is not an addiction” in order to protect business interests, then things are wrong. Addiction to a product should be met with horror! Oh no, how could this happen? Instead, it’s part of the business model.
“Business” is a blight.
Well, it’s very simple, don’t you see? When he makes money, it’s not addiction When he makes no money, it’s addiction
I’ve known drug dealers more honourable than this.
I don’t even use “being awake” 16 hours a day 😂
They want to be an integral part of our lives, like thinking, except they’ll take the place of thinking, or talking, or even looking around.
Life is better without selling your data.
Why does he look like Steve Carrell playing a sociopathic big tech asshole?
Thought it was the Verizon guy.
You can trust ol empty eyes there. He knows what he is lying.
“Because like 10hr of that is background usage while we harvest your data.”
He is not qualified to identify what is and isn’t addiction. He is qualified to demonstrate he’s a psychopath.
All I do is play fucking games and even 16 hours of that is absurd unless I’m specifically trying to force my sleep pattern into something usable again.
I’ve definitely hit 16 hr days before for gaming but it’s rare as hell. Warframe, Runescape and Minecraft are probably the only 3 to hit that peak, and I’m definitely not a functioning human during that time.
Bro I spend 4 hours a day gaming and I feel guilty enough to fuck over my sleep schedule and get some chores done. 16 hours???
What’s the deal with tech bosses obviously lying lately? Just a legal thing? Or a it’s true if we say it long enough thing?
When the president of the united states is held to zero accountability and no one seems to care. Why would these assholes?
Oh they do care, just in the wrong way.
In the business world “benchmarking” basically means “let’s copy what the successful people do, so that line go up”
In their robotic, amoral view of the world, they see one of the most successful people on the planet (according to their definition of success) constantly spouting obvious lies and being surrounded by sycophants while getting elected twice and grifting billions and facing no punishments. Maybe if the tech CEOs get rich enough and their companies get important enough, they can join his club.
Ohhh, and they must be how we get oligarchies!
They are the exact same type of assholes
They’ll say everything and exploit anyone for their numbers.
Such a moral way to run a whole economic philosophy.
