Wait, let me try again!

Update: for example Matt Binder didn’t by any stretch participate in spreading jet data.

Aaron Rupar, by contrast, admits he posted a link to a still-active FB ElonJet:

This is why sites staff whole content mod teams to investigate posts and formulate standards.

Via the Spaces debacle, we learn that EM’s reasoning for the journalist ban is a link to ElonJet, w the implication they’re revealing the same info.
But.
If the ElonJet acct was suspended when the various publishing went live, all readers can see is proof it was suspended.
Q1: Were these links put up AFTER the suspension hid all posted info to the public?
Q2: If so, does Elon understand that?

I’m not sure a company like Amazon has principles in the sense that individuals do, but they have longterm interests that align with such principles when responsibly viewed. Russia is a huge investment risk. Ukraine is a growing market w an easy, low cost way to ingratiate themselves with all levels of government— or hold them hostage. Not to mention a sweeping PR boost across the West at a bargain, during a rise of antitrust hawks in the US admin eyeing them.

@leovarnet @academicchatter @jesswade I’d focus on the interviews— I feel this is where a lot of unintentional bias and subjectivity creeps in to selection processes. In particular, the different conversational styles and mores of women, neurodivergents, immigrants and those from different cultural backgrounds may be disadvantaged when they are judged as less confident/engaged/forthright/knowledgeable or just not “clicking” with the prevailing culture.

@freemo I like the one on the lower left. It looks tough without looking hostile.

@ceoln I found one of them is @BezosJets, so the logic would be the same. Banning his personal account looks purely vindictive though, and the hypocrisy is overpowering. Which doesn’t surprise me; he’s a bundle of cognitive dissonances wrapped in layers of neurosis. But I still say the Jet accounts needed to go.

@jonpainterphoto ba-dum-tssht.

Unpopular take: I actually agree with EM about the stupid jet. Archival information is one thing, but real time is essentially the same risk-public benefit calculus as doxxing, and just as creepy. We should lean into this instead and encourage him to extend his privacy concerns to more vulnerable individuals.

Maybe they’re so rarely seen because no sane people want to go watersporting when it’s this freaking COLD?
