@edzitron @rsingel I do kinda love the double-underlining of the hyperlinks. But those pop-ups drive me nuts. I can just use Instapaper, but the automatic pop-up is a reader-hostile dark pattern that is way too common.

Hi, @edzitron. Love the essays and podcast (well, except for the ads—I’d pay for an ad-free version). But for fuck’s sake could you do away with the subscribe dialogue that pops up while I’m trying to read an article on your site?

the issue no one wants and nobody needs: the FCC’s designation of ISPs as public utilities to impose #netneutrality under Title II more here: consumerchoicecenter.org/the-fcc-resurr…
Yaël Ossowski⚜️@YaelOss

“I dissent” That’s all @BrendanCarrFCC had to say in today’s meeting on the ill-suited Depression-Era Title II regulations applying to ISPs. Consumers don’t want this, don’t need it, and we’re frankly tired of this debate when real threats exist to consumer choice online

@TechFreedom @BerinSzoka This you, bro? "California is wasting everyone’s time and taxpayers’ money by provoking an entirely predictable legal battle over obviously unconstitutional legislation,” lamented Berin Szóka, President of TechFreedom." You lost that argument three times. Maybe learn humility

@VMwareTanzu You can't even keep Pivotal Tracker running, except for Enterprise customers that you can gouge. Why would anyone trust you to keep anything running? Stay far away from Tanzu, folks

@mehdirhasan If you want to move to a platform that doesn't platform Nazis, my publisher co-op works with the biggest publishers on the independent CMS Ghost. Link in bio.

I've left Substack and have moved my Zero Day publication to Ghost. Took a while to set up (with help from @rsingel & @join_outpost) and I still need to tweak the design a bit and get a logo (logo suggestions welcome!) but this is where you'll find it now zetter-zeroday.com/?new

Ed Zitron@edzitron·
After an initial panic, it seems that everyone got this newsletter via Ghost. You should still migrate from Substack like I did - just be prepared for an initially slower distribution of emails. Cannot recommend @rsingel's Outpost enough for the migration.
Ed Zitron@edzitron

This week's newsletter: Apple's Vision Pro, an industry and company-defining move into augmented reality computing, has been met with skepticism and suspicion. It's a sign that tech has worn out its welcome after a decade of screwing customers. wheresyoured.at/how/

@GSMAEurope @jmalvpal LOL. That's exactly what it is. It's just an excuse for telcos to get paid twice for the same service. It's a proposal that's been rejected over and over, because no one, except telecom execs, wants to go back to the economic model of $5 a min landline long-distance calls.

@hunterwalk @andrewchen @kyurieff @mignano I have no idea why tech journalists only talk about VC-funded tech. The real trend is that subscription-centric CMSes are being commoditized, w/ the open source nonprofit Ghost in the lead Overly capitalized cos like Substack gonna implode and get sold for pennies on the VC $

Posting on this site because so few ONA folks are on the independent, non oligarch controlled fediverse, which is unfortunate cause it's a great vibe over there Also @ONAConf needs to step up. One email ain't enough and there are lessons to learn

Went to the #ONA23 journalism conference in Philly last week. I was fully masked indoors, avoided crowded receptions, took Enovid. Now symptomatic for 2-3 days but not testing positive for Covid including a PCR this a.m. Be careful indoors, folks. The summer surge is real.

I had a blast at #ona23 But alas - I came back with Covid. Just a PSA to take a test. I hope you’re all ok.
