#amazon and the other #broligarchs are so vile

I don't actually believe this report because I suspect all the smart speakers have been smart mic's all along, constantly recording people despite whatever agreements the company asserted.

Like, #tesla's surveillance tech has meant the company has been doing its own constant societal surveillance for years. Data says with the car, sure, but duhhhh I suspect corporate takes it too.

”For years, Musk got away with treating his workers poorly, opposing their efforts at unionization, failing to improve vehicle build quality, and not delivering on promises like fully realized self-driving software, solar roof tiles, or battery-swap stations. … But that seems to finally have changed — and Tesla is feeling the consequences first because it’s most exposed to consumer pressure.”

”The company’s long delay in getting out a mass-market, affordable model is in part because of Musk’s poor decisions… Tesla’s design team had a plan for a less expensive model, but Musk torpedoed it…”

”…Musk’s reputation isn’t Tesla’s only problem; his management is driving the company down too. …the company’s vehicle lineup has become stale and its designs are looking dated. …the Cybertruck, is a dud, and deliveries had to be paused…because trim pieces were flying off.”

”Tesla’s brand image is being tarnished precisely because Musk is so close to Trump, is actively involved in gutting the US government, and is endorsing far-right movements across the globe.”
