I don't know how many times industries are going to be tricked by tech bros middlemaning to insert their 'brand new' ideas into already functioning systems with the claim that if you buy it its gonna conpletely revolutionize the process. But I know it's gonna happen again at least once more. So much of it is digital snake oil.

The problem is our upper management are paranoid of time theft (even though its opposite, wage theft, costs the economy more money than all petty crime combined). And out of sheer paranoia, they're going to be susceptible to technological snake oil, especially of the sort that tightens the collars on labor and makes them that much more miserable.

Yeah because they are WELL AWARE of how guilty they are of wage-theft. Accuse your enemy of that which you are guilty of

Let me guess, you also want to sue car manufacturers for deaths brought by the things they created. Goddamn auto bros
