""Some of the starkest examples looked at how Google treats certain health questions. Google often pulls information from the web and shows it at the top of results to provide a quick answer, which it calls a Featured Snippet. Presch searched for "link between coffee and hypertension". The Featured Snippet quoted an article from the Mayo Clinic, highlighting the words "Caffeine may cause a short, but dramatic increase in your blood pressure." But when she looked up "no link between coffee and hypertension", the Featured Snippet cited a contradictory line from the very same Mayo Clinic article: "Caffeine doesn't have a long-term effect on blood pressure and is not linked with a higher risk of high blood pressure".

The same thing happened when Presch searched for "is ADHD caused by sugar" and "ADHD not caused by sugar". Google pulled up Featured Snippets that argue support both sides of the question, again taken from the same article. (In reality, there's little evidence that sugar affects ADHD symptoms, and it certainly doesn't cause the disorder.)""

Recherchen des +972 Magazins zeigen, wie Amazon, Google und Microsoft dem israelischen Militär Dienstleistungen und Kapazitäten zur Verfügung stellen, um ein Massenüberwachungsprogramm und Angriffe in Gaza durchzusetzen.

'According to multiple sources, the exponential capacity of the AWS public cloud system allows the army to have “endless storage” for holding intelligence on almost “everyone” in Gaza. One source who used the cloud-based system during the current war described making “orders from Amazon” for information while carrying out their operational tasks, and working with two screens — one connected to the army’s private systems, and the other connected to AWS.

Military sources emphasized to +972 and Local Call that the scope of intelligence collected from the surveillance of all Palestinian residents of Gaza is so large that it cannot be stored on military servers alone. In particular, according to intelligence sources, much more extensive storage capabilities and processing power were needed to keep billions of audio files (as opposed to just textual information or metadata), which compelled the army to turn to the cloud services offered by tech companies.'

#Google has disabled call recording on its phones so thank gawd for OBS, Open Broadcaster Software, which records just about anything. So I'll be doing interviews from windows, not android.

Update: Again there was a TGIF-Meeting and again critical questions about #Nimbus was asked by the staff.

And again: the management just replied with the same non-answer: ". So when it comes to the Nimbus contract, in particular, this is a contract that is designed and directed at our public cloud work, not at specific military classified sensitive information. And everything that's on our Cloud network, our public Cloud, is subject to our Acceptable Use Policy and our ToS"

"Ethics" is not the only problem with generative A.I. -- *epistemology* is broken too.

My latest for Public Books: in the face of #google telling us to eat rocks, we bought an encyclopedia.

Here's a brilliant article about the opaque and broken world of programmatic advertising.

These platforms truly are a cesspit.

They are causing billions of ad dollars from reputable brands to be pumped into disinformation sites.

Meanwhile, ads are systematically blocked from appearing on reputable news sites that have articles that include words like "Palestine", "black", or "gay".

And the biggest player in this industry? Google!

Just another way Google is enshittifying the internet for profit.

🇮🇱 #Google asegura que sus negocios con #Israel se limitan a servicios para civiles y que no tienen nada que ver con la guerra, pero se ha filtrado un contrato que firmaron hace solo tres semanas... y es la prueba de que hay sistemas de IA que usa el ejército israelí para matar en Gaza que están en #GoogleCloud. https://time.com/6966102/google-contract-israel-defense-ministry-gaza-war/

Update. #Google supports the #RightToRepair bill in #Oregon, even as applied to #Pixel phones.
https://9to5google.com/2024/01/11/pixel-right-to-repair/

But it adds this proviso: "Legislation should acknowledge the risks borne by unskilled repairers and allow original equipment manufacturers (OEM) to provide parts assemblies rather than individual components to reduce the risk of injury."

PSA: Google has now begun to roll-out the Ad Topics "feature" onto Android itself. It's not just in Chrome you have to disable the settings. Please #Boost to spread awareness.

If you didn't get the pop-up screen on your Android device (it'll look like the first two screenshots), to opt-out of these settings:

• Go to your device Settings
• Press on "Google"
• Press on "Ads"
  • While you're here, press on the "Delete Advertising ID" button and delete it
• Press on "Ad Privacy"
• Review: "Ad Topics", "App-suggested ads", and "App Measurement". Make sure they are all labelled as "OFF". (This page will look like the third screenshot.)

If you don't see "Ad Privacy" in Step 4 then it means that it hasn't been rolled out to you yet. You might need to wait and check back in a couple of days to see if/when it has been implemented to disable these settings.

EDIT: There's another setting to review. In step 2, scroll to "Personalize using shared data". Turn everything off.

I'm frustrated by #SEO pages that appear high in search results, but which are not very useful. They are optimised for #google, not for humans.

Is there no #firefox extension that demotes SEO pages in search results?

Because #GoogleAnalytics will be disabled by #Google on millions of websites.
