Listening to some tech bros it wud appear as if other organizations weren't in existence or weren't doing any work before they started to pay any attention with their Midas touch. Yes it mostly happens with men. Plz stop this immaturity. Too many issues to fight #strongertogether
Women and men who work in such orgns, call this out. Don't learn this kind of existence or leadership. Collaboration makes us better. Disingenuous socially acceptable statements of belief in values and doing the exact opposite isn't lost on anyone. #StrongerTogether
Please don't DM me looking for gossip. There isn't any. Open your eyes and listen to the the younger ppl who r doing the real work. What to they think? This is serious stuff that perpetuates toxic structures. Support others. Don't be scared to retweet ;)
Also don't be Dr Obvious. #notallmen I know and you know.

If the version of the law as presented on TV was accurate, there won't be any fight over #ITRULES. Compelled to do this thread.

Platforms don't want to police content if they lose safe harbor.

They are happy for any content to float through their medium.

Just as the govt completed the Content Monitoring System, thus gaining access in real-time to the phone calls and SMS messages of the entire Indian population, the implementation of open-source e2e encryption by #Whatsapp restored strong secrecy to the general citizenry's reach.
In the new rules lies concealed a chilling policy declaration: strong privacy is to be put beyond the reach of the common people, all of whose communications are to be seen by the governments of the future, all the time
For the rich and the few only, the technological possibilities of secure communication will be reserved. The rich can have an invitation-only privacy-respecting application without thinking about these burdensome rules.

Why are engineers and technologists running vaccination in #india @drharshvardhan @PMOIndia ? The #cowin portal leads to exclusion of those who don't have smart phones, aren't tech savvy, are women, have data packs. Don't you see ground realities before coming out with policies?
Also please refer us to the official document which is not an FAQ that mandates #cowin for vaccination
Until recently #cowin was only available in English. India isn't Bangalore.

"Asking @BillGates to fix inequality is like asking an arsonist to hose down your house after he just set it on fire. Philanthropists might have the deep pockets to fund the fire engine and water hose, but the money is coming from making our houses unlivable in the first place."
