Good article, which can help us understand the late stage of "enshittification" of those platforms out there, and of course, here: LinkedIn's evolution, as described by the author Cory Doctorow. Yep, because it is clear that LinkedIn is not even a job platform anymore (do you really still believe you can find a genuine, decent job here?). No way, bro, this platform has been degraded significantly, prioritizing profit over the genuine professional opportunities that once defined its value. Don't believe me? And how do you call then this majority of BS, ahem, problematic job listings, reflecting a disregard for the user experience and a focus on monetization strategies? Learn, bro, learn what you're expected to encounter: - Fake Jobs Entirely fictitious positions to gather information or mislead. - Zombie Jobs Outdated listings that are still posted. - Ghost Jobs Non-existent roles advertised to mislead or gather data. - Scam Jobs Designed to defraud job seekers, often asking for money. - Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) Jobs Disguised as employment but require payment to join and focus on recruiting others. - Low-Quality or Exploitative JobsOffer poor pay or working conditions, taking advantage of job seekers. - Clickbait Jobs Use misleading titles to attract attention, differing significantly from the actual job. - Data Harvesting Jobs Aim to collect personal information under the guise of recruitment. - Duplicate Jobs The same position posted multiple times, cluttering search results. - Bait-and-Switch Jobs Advertise one position but offer a different, often less desirable, one upon application. Etc etc all except genuine decent jobs. Welcome to the late phase of enshittification.

From the 2023 Z3 Conference, a panel on the growing antisemitic rhetoric in online spaces. With violent and hateful rhetoric being fueled by social media algorithms and running rampant across gathering places across the web, our panelists discuss what it's like being a Jew online today. How are our young people navigating these online spaces, and how can we stay safe and have positive experiences amidst the hate? All this and more in this panel.

Something big changed in the last 30 years. Let me explain: For nearly a century, people looked to their government or large corporations to produce and distribute new solutions. But due to significant changes in technology and our increased interconnectedness, individuals like you and me have dramatically expanded their reach and influence. Today, with just your phone, you can launch a campaign for political office, make a video that transforms how millions of people think, or start a petition that draws attention to an important cause. Here’s the bottom line:  If you desire to make a difference, it’s a remarkable time to be alive.

Interesting read
