As new tech devices are gathering more and more data about users, privacy and safety are STILL not being talked about. So many devices can harm users, either directly or indirectly, and users often have no idea. washingtonpost.com/technolog…

I happened to notice some medical info online that was presented in a misleading way due to missing column headers. I wrote to the website (health insurance co.) to let them know. They wrote back and said they were unable to help me since I don't have an account with them. Sigh.
I'm officially moving to Chicago in September, after bouncing around between countries the last couple years. @AJKandy and I just rented a place and we're looking forward to meeting new people and getting to know the city.

We have known for YEARS that Facebook allows advertisers to illegally discriminate by race, gender, and other demographics for housing, employment, and credit ads. Now Facebook has settled with the Justice Dept. and will overhaul its ad algorithm system. propublica.org/article/faceb…
Should have seen this coming... yet another product that was made to work on white skin, with little thought to everyone else. Even worse, people with darker skin don't know it can give them incorrect readings — which can be a matter of life or death.

Someone just told me I'm smart. Actually, I just know when to use Google. It's not like I actually store all this random information in my head.
Does anyone have an example of a website that hides or has a content warning for unpleasant images? It's for a medical site and some of the photos would be fairly disturbing if random people somehow end up on the page by mistake. Maybe blurring them until you click like FB does.
I'm watching @DebbieGibson singing Lost In Your Eyes in a virtual concert sponsored by... AARP. I guess we're all old now. How did this happen?

This is a step in the right direction. Other companies should follow this example, and allow users to opt out of ads about sensitive topics.
Imagine having a miscarriage but continuing to see pregnancy ads everywhere based on your recent search history.
