Agree. Also I understand what the A is in Pixel 5A. It's "Pixel 5 eh, I don’t care that much about phones and this does everything I need without any fuss” which is a valid attitude to have and is well served by this phone. — PolitiTweet.org

Unless Apple shocks me with stemless AirPods (lol) that support multipoint (lol unto death), these Jabra Elite 7 Pros are almost certainly my next: https://t.co/jhAFtQRfQx — PolitiTweet.org

This is just an experiment for now, and I hope it doesn’t make it past that phase unless there is some very serious thought about the consequences and mitigation strategies for them. — PolitiTweet.org

...A huge problem with Google is only the first few search results ever get traffic. If you aren't good at the SEO game, you're MIA. Now, even if you do manage to claw some traffic away from Google, those top winners are going to get free links on the top of your page. — PolitiTweet.org

...I know it's already a Google App and the URL bar is Google territory, but making more of the UI a Google service seems like it's a thing that could be abused (or used for ads someday). AND... — PolitiTweet.org

Now the troubling feature: when you click through a Google Search result, other Google Search Results appear on the destination page, in a new bar at the top of Chrome, under the URL bar. It's possibly useful! but... https://t.co/PZ9ssAkJPi — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Some new features coming to Chrome on Android. One is very good, one is very troubling. The good: automating screenshot blockquotes of text. Love it. https://t.co/XsaaGipp2r — PolitiTweet.org

@Sanitize10 can you share what region you’re searching in? I’m still seeing the bad results here in California. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

excellent explanation of the dual embargo thing from @Mrwhosetheboss . Often there’s a THIRD embargo where certain categories of people that are deemed influencers make content, too. It’s messy! https://t.co/qtkM3YwlPi — PolitiTweet.org

If there were viable competing app stores on either platform, I could see a case for not cheering this decision in Korea. But since there are not, I will just say: hooray! — PolitiTweet.org

It seems like the review moderators are paying attention, at least. There are virtually no reviews on these products. Which, huh. But also there is no science-based COVID information anywhere on these product pages, so. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Good morning I am still mad about Amazon not doing enough to stop COVID-19 misinformation and profiting off people who are buying products that could harm them. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

I’m probably jinxing it here but whatever. Disclosure @adora still helping. https://t.co/ra6dpdHyTj — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

@tzukima At least you had to get to the e. Also when you tap through YT puts info boxes at the top. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Amazon is not just a store anymore. It’s a platform and a search engine. And in both cases it is failing. Badly. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

And tapping on these results? Absolutely zero information that could help lead people to genuine science. Instead there are only opportunities to buy the thing misinformation makes people think they need but that actually could be seriously harmful. Amazon WYD? https://t.co/vLgUBUfDz2 — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Hey Amazon this autocomplete result for just two letters is VERY BAD on so many levels. Not only does it reveal how easily your algorithm can be skewed by misinformation, it’s also possibly leading to genuine, human harm. https://t.co/A2hfsKIcQr — PolitiTweet.org
