Either it was a once-off or Ars will fuck up again. Guess we’ll see.

It’s not that they’re stupid - it’s that they’re completely unscrupulous and unethical. If you gave up on being a decent human being then I’m sure you’d think up loads of ways of making those megabucks. How about slavery! Hmm, too on the nose. How about we insert ourselves as rent-seeking middlemen in a stable industry, taking a fee from customers and only giving tasks to the workers who generate enough profit for us. It’s not slavery, it’s just the gig economy! And when we say “people are happier not being employees under our system” it won’t be because we’re stupid, it’ll be because we no longer care about inconvenient truths that get in the way of our profits.

Please don’t do any of this, kind lemming.

This will be when Apple finds out whether Trump can stay bought or not…

one of EU’s declared adversaries

Nonsense. The USA is in a really bad place right now and their current administration doesn’t favour the EU, but we’re not at the “declared adversary” stage. Given the American military occupation of Europe in all but name, you’d know if the Yanks declared us as adversaries.

Whoa, slow down there bruv! Rape jokes aren’t ok - that Roomba can’t consent!
