Don’t we have hate speech laws?!?

OPEN FLIRTATION with negative stereotyping calculated to relegate a community to the periphery of political public life, is fundamentally wrong, &constitutionally offensive. And so to have the Deputy President deepen the crisis of cohesion, so liberally, makes him unfit to serve.

There are already companies moving towards contextual advertising - and seeing the benefits.
When shifted to this advertising model, they actually made more profit.
Companies *don't* have to rely on Big Tech's surveillance-based business model. 4/5

But this isn't the only way for companies to advertise.
One alternative to the Big Tech business model is contextual advertising - where ads are displayed based on a website's content.
For example, placing ads for running shoes on a runner's forum. 3/5

Surveillance advertising is advertising that relies on the invasive tracking & profiling of users for profit.
This form of advertising harms the rights to privacy, freedom of expression & non-discrimination for the sake of company profit margins. 2/5

Big Tech & their lobbyists want people to think that a ban on surveillance advertising is the same as a ban on *all* advertising.
But that's simply not the case.
Surveillance advertising is just *one* way companies can advertise their services/products. 1/5

What is a girl to do to get an affordable, non private data collecting, ethically constituted cell phone around here?!
Basically as a Kenyan living in Kenya to access your gift cards or even you have to hop on a plane. How ridiculous. have why the heck do I keep throwing my money ?!
God forbid you are gifted a US gift card as a Kenyan living in Kenya. You can’t redeem the card except in the US, you cannot have the card credited to your Apple ID, you cannot contact or get support unless you are in the US.
Thé story of how i’m about to skip over to Android and quit spending my hard earned money on products starts with their dismiss inaccessible support.
This mapping is also open to new collaborations. Do you know other projects? Vc conhece outros projetos? Ajude-nos a mapeá-los pelo formulário👇🏾 Tb queremos traduzir a plataforma em breve!

We are mapping oppressions through case-based analysis. Check out in deep feminist analysis of Sistema Alerta Niñez in Chile, which departs from the assumption that Chile does not have any racial problem 😱

Oppressive A.I. framework: feminists' lenses go beyond the discussion of “ethics”, “human-centered” or “transparent” A.I. and enable us to check power imbalances and question if those systems are not simply automating different layers of oppressions.

The ongoing shorting convo re GameStop is a powerful example of the power of leveraging the internet as a platform for change...imagine if we used it in the same way to mobilise against,vote out and bring to justice corrupt leaders or those responsible for public institutions?!

An MP shoots someone in a nightclub. A young man is shot allegedly over weed in Majengo. Another for protesting over poor roads. This happened in the span of LESS THAN A WEEK. This is how power that is unaccountable works against a people. Are you next?
