Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

Folks, I’d like to string together a bunch of videos showing the unconscionable abuses that are taking place, and play them back-to-back-to-back on a computer monitor. I’d like to be able to easily add videos to this lil presentation when I find more. Can anyone tell me the best way I could do that?

I’d like to apologize for the terrible and hurtful things I was proved to have done, there is no room for it in society and I will reflect, grow and also leave the door open to the possibility people will believe the evidence was doctored.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.
