This sums up @1Password and Big Tech so well

Microsoft's Edge browser appears to be sending all the URLs you visit to its Bing API website.

Reddit users first spotted the privacy issues with Edge last week, noticing that the latest version of Microsoft Edge sends a request to bingapis.com with the full URL of nearly every page you navigate to. Microsoft tells The Verge it's investigating ...

*cough*

"Oh did we accidentally write code and put it in our browser that collects info on everything you do, again?

Another must-read newsletter post from the consistently excellent @msifry -- this one's about some of AI's prominent attackers and insiders:

"Clowns to the Left, Jokers to the Right"

"While self-styled tech ethicists Tristan Harris and Aza Raskin warn that AI is about to end human agency, a Biden AI advisory panel stacked with industry reps avoids the hard calls."

"lawyers told Fox execs that Murdoch would be 'disgraced on the stand, run out of the boardroom, and his testimony will expose him as a lunatic sliding into senility.'"

That is intriguing. And will make the shareholder lawsuits even more interesting. Very Sumner Redstone.

@lightweight which is another thing to consider with earn it, chat control and Online Harms. Scanning everyone's private communications isn't going to get you intelligence really either.

You still need analysis, and AI isn't going to help with that either.

'Artificial Intelligence' is a marketing term. It's misleading based on most people's understanding of 'intelligence'. It's really exactly the opposite of intelligent.

Now we just need replacements for leaflet and flap, good thing there's another MR for that. :)

Thanks @nahuel for the original idea. ^^

Otherwise not too much happened. There were a few fixes in switch rows and spin rows, and a new point release. So hopefully the next update will be a bit more exciting :)

NitroKey disappoints me...

So the #ChiefEconomist of the #BankOfEngland thinks that citizens and businesses “need to accept” they are poorer, and stop pushing prices higher and seeking pay increases, no doubt while drawing a salary in the hundreds of thousands if not millions. Talk about tone deaf.
