"...gonna make you regret, gonna make you lose"
I heard Elizabeth Holmes is going to prison for her fraudulent Silicon Valley co (and yea, I will forever mistakenly call her "Katie Holmes"), so, I figure "hey, let's amuse ourselves with some visual irony, and look up the photo where she is with the "30 under 30" crowd with Zuckerberg and other Silicon Valley tech captains of industry".
I search, I scroll, I re-search, scroll more - that photo is fxxxing buried. What I DID see (all over the front page of DDG) was the news news news that she is, in fact, being imprisoned and not remaining free until an appeal, or whatever. Not even a Wikipedia entry on her. Not even an "insider hot take" about what the malicious/malignant culture Silicon Valley portrays and upholds means for "tech" at-large. She isn't the only bad character in the Bay Area, she just got caught.
Either way, news co's have their SEO formulations worked out to perfection. Or maybe AI knows how to "work" the search algorithms. Or maybe...yea, likely one of those two (or both).
Remember when the Internet was organic? Normal? Natural? Non-corporate?
I do, too, wish it stayed that way
I don't know why software companies insist on injecting news into everything. Actually, that's a lie, I have a pretty good guess. On the web I've taken to using uBlock Origin's element zapper to delete any news widgets on sites. Works pretty well.
Hmmm, I found an Elizabeth Holmes Wikipedia entry:
Or am I misunderstanding who's Wikipedia entry you were looking for?
Whatever. I'd completely forgotten about that person. And those people. Thieves, if you ask me, just because we all know what normal work is worth, and so clearly they exercised means other than normal work to amass what they did.
