I've talked about how creepy Office365's "editor" is, and how much I hate it. This video explains it even better, though. I can't believe that we've normalised the thinking that 1997 was some sort of "dark age", and that allowing software to police our language like this is somehow acceptable.

Yeah, their understanding of privacy is v weird, to me...

Like they're all super distrustful of each other, but then they're more than willing to give away any and all privacy when it comes to these tech companies and the like...

Somewhere along the way, that became "normalised" - that your classmates/colleagues can't even be trusted for a basic conversation (fair, in some cases, I guess), but tech companies..? Nah, they'll have your back...

Ah social skills... We live in a very strange, increasingly "inhuman and impersonal" time...
