‘Fuck You, Make Me’ Without Saying the Words

The next time Tim Cook says “privacy is a human right,” the only possible response is to laugh in his face. I mean, Apple and Google are fine distributing an app that has created an undressed image #Grok made of Renee Nicole #Good, the mother who was shot by ICE in Minneapolis

How do you plan to defend getting rid of the #ICEBlock app while allowing #X to generate degrading images of a woman #ICE killed? Can #Apple & #Google even identify their values beyond their commitment to “shareholder value”?

Text Shot: Elizabeth Lopatto, writing at The Verge, “Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai Are Cowards”:

Since X’s users started using Grok to undress women and children using deepfake images, I have been waiting for what I assumed would be inevitable: X getting booted from Apple’s and Google’s app stores. The fact that it hasn’t happened yet tells me something serious about Silicon Valley’s leadership: Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai are spineless cowards who are terrified of Elon Musk.

Lopatto’s outrage and righteous anger are justified, but I think mostly misdirected. Apple and Google — and thus, Cook and Pichai, as the men who sit behind the desks where the buck stops at both companies — are culpable. But this is ultimately not about them, and not about Musk. It’s Trump, as president, they fear. Not Musk. And they are correct to fear Trump.

Lawsuit: White House Pushed Apple to Remove ICE Tracking App From Store

The developer of an iPhone app that allows users to report and track immigration enforcement operations across the U.S. is suing several Trump administration officials, alleging that they unfairly characterized his app’s intent, leading to it being unduly removed from the Apple Store. Joshua Aaron, the creator of the app, which is called ICEBlock, filed the suit this week in the U.S.
