OpenAI has already threatened to leave Europe if it gets regulated too hard. Imagine GEMA being the ones to drive the chatbots out of Germany.


...I didn't think I'd ever end up cheering on GEMA.

Update on the wild #polio discovery in Germany: The virus was found in wastewater in Hamburg.
@rki.de
, the German public health agency, says the virus sequence is very similar to some isolated in Afghanistan, so the likely source was an infected human. (page 10 here: rki.de/DE/Aktuelles/Publikatio…)

It turns out you can't say the word 'genitals' on LinkedIn...

[Edit: @neil has pointed out that I also use the word 'fucked', which could be the actually issue here.]

A LinkedIn post rom Quinn Rhodes reads: "This is going to be a fun test of how comfortable LinkedIn is with links to writing that talks about genitals, so here goes: It's a truth universally acknowledged that trans healthcare in the UK is fucked - but what if it wasn't? What if trans people could actually expect our basic healthcare needs to be met? In my most recent newsletter, I explored whether I'm lying to myself about bottom surgery. (Spoiler alert: I am.)" Below the link to the article is a red warning symbol and the text, also in red: "Only you can see this post. It's been removed because it goes against our Professional Community Policies. Learn more."
A screenshot of an email from LinkedIn Trust & Safety Team to Quinn Rhodes with the subject line: 'A problem with your post.' The email reads: "Hi Quinn, Your post doesn't comply with our Professional Community Policies on adult content. It's been removed from LinkedIn and only you can access it. Repeatedly creating content that doesn't comply with our Professional Community Policies can result in feature access limitations or restrictions to your account. Please visit the notice page about this decision for additional details and resources." At the bottom is a blue button with the text: 'View Notice Page'

Mostly unrelated, but how on earth is the word MENSTRUAL triggering safe search?!

(Feat. @404mediaco.)

Screenshot of a Google search for: 'menstrual site:https://www.404media.co/' Instead of the expected list of results, there is a highlighted box with the text: "Results hidden by SafeSearch SafeSearch is set by a device, network or browser administrator to hide explicit results, such as sexual content or graphic violence." Next to this text is a blue button reading 'Learn more'.

#PSA #Starbucks #StarbucksStrike

Via Starbucks Workers United: "As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike!"

Don't be a scab, do not cross a picket line.

Flyer for the Starbucks Workers United strike, with their logo (resembling the Starbucks logo) at the top; it reads: Don't buy Starbucks at any location, toay and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!
