• Discord has been using ML to determine the gender and age of some of its users

  I'm a big fan of Matrix, and run a small homeserver for my family in friends. But if you really want to explore the frontiers peer to peer seems really intriguing because you don't need any server. https://tox.chat/ just to name one. - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago

• What is perfectly legal, but creepy as hell?

  Since the pandemic started, there's been a wave of horrendous surveillance software used by companies with shit cultures who don't know how to manage people remotely.
