Low effort stuff needs to be punished in discussion-based communities like politics, technology and news. Mods are just happy to see people parroting the correct viewpoints but even if they are valid viewpoints theres no meaning behind them because people are memeifying their ideologies.

I would love to see bans for "revealing your side" so that people come to their own conclusions based on the truest information we can discuss. People are afraid of others coming to the wrong conclusions and fail to trust others to think so they tell them what to think.

It drives me fucking mad.

Seriously. If you try to talk about a political issue at face value without making your "side" clear then people fill in those blanks for you as though you made a mistake in being too ambiguous.

Im seeing a lot of reasons why you, or i, would not want such a service to exist.

What a person should or should not be doing is their business. Companies who can target vulnerable people would ideally be regulated.

Id much rather first go after payday advance companies with exorbant fees, or casinos, or high interest loans that individuals cant be expected to repay.

If someone came to a service provider and wanted it, and provided media to train on, and agreed to whatever costs are involved, isnt that enitrely their business?

I will be paying attention to similar claims but i wouldnt be surprised if the survey results arent representing the population well. Anyone know what verification is collected for an online poll like this? Or is it email based and easier to manipulate? Their methodology pasted below for those curious.

"Methodology: The American Values Survey was conducted online Aug. 16-Oct. 4. The poll is based on a representative sample of 5,027 adults (age 18 and older) living in all 50 states and the District of Columbia who are part of Ipsos' Knowledge Panel®.

        The margin of sampling error is +/- 1.82 percentage points at the 95% confidence level, for results based on the entire sample."

Aw. A cute little comment that fits nicely with the article headline.

Thanks for saving me time by giving your summarized dissection of the article and the implications it has for apples product.

Oh and btw all tech products stop production at some point, because you know, apple isnt a dumbass that pumps out products without regard for demand as they are creating a successive model of the product.

Stop scrolling. Start thinking.

In fairness you cant just say its not a zero sum game when the article is supported with a quote from one individual saying they were glad it told them in some cases. We dont know how effective it is.

This is normalizing very intimate (and automated) surveillance. Kids all have smart phones and can google anything they want when they arent using school hardware. If kids have any serious pre-meditation to do something bad then they will do it on their smartphones.

The only reason this would be effective is to catch students before they are aware they are being watched (poof thats gone tomorrow), or the student is so dirt poor that they dont have a smart phone or craptop.

And what else will the student data be used for? Could it be sold? It would certainly have value. Good intentions are right now... data is FOREVER.

Counter point: when this isnt an obscure thing, and kids are aware of it, they will purposefully use trigger words because they are kids.

If kids/people are having mental health issues, whats the best way to handle that? By scanning for the symptom and telling them to stop being mentally troubled? I really doubt kids are getting the care they need based on these flags. Seems like a bandaid for cultural/systemic issues that cause the mental illness/harm.
