Urgent: Confirm FCC commissioner

mercredi 25 janvier 2023 à 08:47

US citizens: call on the Senate to confirm Gigi Sohn as FCC commissioner.

The Obama-era FCC version of network neutrality is insufficient because it doesn't stop web sites from tracking users. It only prohibits some of the unjust ways to use that data.

What we need is to prohibit web sites from sneakily snooping. Whatever info they want about you, they should ask for openly, and you should be able to give whatever answer you wish.

Nonetheless, restoring the FCC policy that the corrupter eliminated would be a step forward.

Digitally monitored, truckers

mercredi 25 janvier 2023 à 08:32

Truck drivers are now subject to extreme digital monitoring, and the rigid enforcement can give them reasons to drive faster.

In general, monitoring workers closely makes them anxious and uncomfortable. Some will quit.

Where unions are strong enough, they may be able to pressure employers to reduce monitoring. But not many workplaces are like that nowadays. I think we need strict laws to limit monitoring of workers.
