Sure, I agree that "tech industry" can refer to individuals. But in this context, it's referring to corporations. That's the simplest interpretation of the headline, and if you don't arrive at that interpretation, it becomes increasingly apparent in the article.

"Nothing to do with tech" -- I disagree. The author is speaking to a specific issue of consent in how tech companies handle data and build UX. These are tech industry issues. Immoral data handling may also be an issue with Nestle, but the author isn't talking about Nestle. They also aren't purely talking about the general economic system of capitalism, because doing so would dilute their argument.

I don't know the author, but I don't think reducing the article to an effort to get "precious clicks" is fair. They're an established tech blogger, they've worked in security for many years, and as far as I know they make no money directly off of their articles. They even strongly encourage you to use an ad blocker when you enter the site.

Nowhere in the article does the author pin blame on individual employees. "Tech industry" obviously refers to corporations, not individual contributors. The title isn't clickbait.

What do you mean by separation of power? :)

I feel like we're maybe getting confused about terminology here? "Redundancy" is a specific term for a specific form of dismissal. It's not a euphemism for "firing" because firing someone is a different kind of dismissal. Terms like rightsizing, reset, re-allocating resources, trimming the fat -- these are certainly euphemisms for redundancy that should be called out.

I get the sentiment. But to me personally, "redundancy" is pretty clear and doesn't mask the pain that comes with being let go. There's also generally a difference between being "fired" and being "made redundant". Redundancy suggests that their job doesn't need to be done anymore b/c of a restructure, bankruptcy, merger, and the company needs to meet certain obligations for that redundancy not to be considered an "unfair dismissal".

Bahahaha

Would love a cafe with seasonal TF drinks... Turn me into a werewolf for Halloween

Aww it's adorable. I want a guardian angel like this.

You made me realise how similar the demi and ace flags are... I guess it makes sense since demisexuality is a type of asexuality.
