    If op-ed editors are looking for virtuosos of forms born in digital media, they should hire subtweeters. Subtweeting is everything trolling is not. Cat burglar in the night. Not dopey smash-and-grab brute. I love subtweets.

    BTW that BuzzFeed piece on Grindr selling users' HIV status to 3rd parties is by & . As we often are, queers are the canary in the tech/health coal mine. What's a world where Facebook/Google could sell *your* health info look like?

    Proud of for the transparency: “For the first time, we are sharing detailed data about the ethnic and gender composition of our staff members” There's a lot that has been done and more yet to do, but this is a good first step 🙏
