The concentrated hands of corporation-established crapitalism reach out to try and crush working class protesters.

 

Just like his father before - doing the bidding of the American Establishment.

And here's a more nuanced view of things that demonstrates that this whole issue isn't a 'left' vs. 'right' view.

Rather it's the corporations vs. the working class.

Most oxymoronic title of the day.

iPhones are buggy, but Android handsets have more reliability issues

Gee, you think?

This is what happens when corporations sacrifice quality over profit, and discovering their own experience of letting the customer suffer.

 

Tyler for Tyler.

Thank you Tyler Toffoli.

Woe continues for the Habs.

You can always spot a 20th Century Corporation online.

They usually have a 'paywall'.

Another example of corporate stupidity - spam scam.

This time, it's in the social media space.

Some feeds in LinkedIn are being overrun by a number of spam messages. Often times they come from what appear to be different people, but they all have the same idiotic message, ending with a number to contact through another social media app.

Despite it's claims of not being an MLM, not being a CHAIN BUSINESS, that's exactly what it comes off as.

Yes, it's a spam scam.

The other clear sign of it is this gem:

I am in highly reputed organization and help people make money online..

Yeah, that's a red flag.

Anyways, I contacted LinkedIn to report it as such, as I've seen close to 100 of these overunning a number of their feeds.

I got back this -

A member of our Trust & Safety Team reviewed the post and found it does not go against our Professional Community Policies.We understand this is not the outcome you expected and want to share some additional options that can help ensure a safer experience on LinkedIn.

No. I'll just remove myself from these otherwise once useful feeds because LinkedIn failed to recognize these for the scams that they are. A part of me wonders if that too is part of the scam, to have me constantly muting people, instead of the feed itself.

But then again, I doubt that LinkedIn or any other social media company gives a shit.

Poor customer experience LinkedIn. You should know by know that you should never waste a customers' time.

6 less magazines I'll see at the grocery check-out aisle.

Good riddance.

Though I do feel bad for the 200 or so who'll lose their jobs. It's funny how the owner of the company doesn't bat an eyelash, but those who worked hard for these publications (and their families) are the ones who'll suffer.

The stupidity of television commercials.

I can't stand ads. They are a waste of my time.

At least when watching hockey and they cut to a commercial (as if there aren't enough ads littered all over the ice and boards; it looks so bad when the camera is moving to keep up with the fast play, the ads all look like a colorful barf) I can mute them so my ears don't have my ears polluted.

Car commercials are the worst - when they put the small print of 'Professional driver. Do not attempt.' or 'Professional course.' or 'Optional features shown.' or some idiotic variation, it's a given that I'm going to get up and head to the shitter - that's a better use of my time for sure.
