so a Google worker gets charged for making 1.2 million on bets but the Google CEO is OK with data centers that illegally suck water and electricity and engaging in surveillance activity with Palantir.
Makes sense to me. ๐
Because insider trading is still sometimes illegal.
But multinational corporations raping the environment and helping to build a dystopian surveillance state is not only legal, but incentivized and rewarded by the state.
Only when the poors do it.
Rules for thee, not for me.
Yeah, I am pretty sure CEO also uses that data for bets, but they call it investments and praise him for it.
Its USA, and you know what, no one cares.
