@dang, why was this related post flagged (neither posted nor flagged by me, but of interest since RSS feeds are delayed in posting "live" news updates (e.g., BBC RSS is a delayed version of BBC-Live)):

The above marginalia.nu just surfaced the following very nice article for me, which neither Google nor Kagi returned in their top 10 search results for the same terms ('thaad aegis hwasong'):
But "to any person", e.g., a CIA asset in the field might be exposed by a gmail user, thus threatening her/his life, thus pre-emptively disclose the gmailer's info to law enforcement?
Or imagine an idle threat is made off-hand in a private gmail, so pre-emptively disclose that threat to law enforcement?
In the sci-fi Minority Report scenario, Google could use AI language models on all gmail to make a judgment call on "emergent danger of serious physical injury". If I plan to go bunjee jumping with an unreliable provider, Google scans my gmail and tells law enforcement?!?
Thanks for posting the heads-up re: Meta and Netflix; in the latter case I’m not surprised (or maybe they could just reduce the obscenely high salaries they overpay so they can feel superior to other members of FAANG, which doesn’t really fool anyone about their engineering prowess (they’re a content company, not an engineering/product/big-cloud company like the others, and everyone knows it). That would also allow them to get rid of this let-a-person-go-after-a-few-months-but-don’t-worry-there’s-warmth-and-respect BS.
Regarding your 2nd statement: “Other companies are cutting staff”; you mean in big tech already? Who?
