That's a use. But not their only use.

Don't worry, they'll just delete the lemmy post after they got their share of clickbait clocks, and then repost it later with a slightly less inflammatory title.

Yeah, nor does the country crowd source the money for the investigation, so I'm starting to see a pattern in your answers.

Have a good weekend.

You keep trying to move the conversation to different subjects, but I want to address your initial claim - inviting a third party to do an independent investigation of a company's alleged wrongdoings. I never heard of such a thing occurring.

But fine, let's go with your example.

If there was a scandal at GN, and they'd use that crowd source money to pay for a third party investigation, it would somehow be better than what LMG did now?

That's not what I was referring to. I meant using a commercial third party investigation for the alleged wrongdoings of a company (just like what happened here), except it's funded through crowd sourcing. When has that ever happened?

Like, who is the demographic that would pay for that? In the end, I figure it would still most likely be an invested party coughing up a substantial part of the money.

What.

In what world does this happen?

TLDR: nothing new in this article from what we heard earlier this week.

The scary thing is, even when there is a button "only required" right next to it, it's scary how many people automatically click "accept all". Even among tech-savy people.

The conditioning is frightening.

I couldn't watch more than a few moments either because, as someone else mentioned, I prefer to take this kind of content in text form. Having said that...

Because he is obnoxious and so sure of his bad takes as if they're fact, as opposed to shit opinions.

I got a chuckle out of the irony here.
