A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

LOL at the comments suggesting nothing should be done because this is hard to enforce.

That reasoning is why we don't have legal abortion, universal health care, a living wage, or term limits.

Some things may be hard to do. It's no excuse not to try.

For sure. It'll never be enforced completely, but it gives teeth to go after some big offenders.
