  1. Tencent's latest "innovation" is to #open-source something no one asked for, called #Hy4, because why not confuse the world even more with yet another #tech buzzword? 😒 Meanwhile, their website is a #Kafkaesque loop of #corporate #jargon, desperately trying to convince us that their "global reach" is anything more than playing a Monopoly game on cheat mode. 🌏🎲

  6. "Mandatory digital ID […] negatively impact human rights and human life"

    "unable or unwilling to comply with enrollment requirements may be subject to fees or penalties"—"can also lead to[...]misuse and abuse"

    "mandatory[…]shown to particularly affect vulnerable and marginalized groups, including:[…]Human Rights Defenders; Persons with Disabilities;[…]people living in poverty."

    "Public institutions should not require mandatory enrollment in a digital ID system."—"imposition of high fees and other financial barriers that can frustrate enrollment for those living in poverty"—"individuals who have legitimate reasons to resist registration, for fear of surveillance, repression or persecution"—"By imposing a mandatory digital ID[…]State effectively eliminates choice and consent[…]and creates the potential for further violations."

    "By making it mandatory to use a digital ID, both public and private institutions can erect discriminatory barriers and exclude individuals from public[…]services.[…]access to the labor market"

    "Mandatory use[…]can also be used to limit free movement, both within national territories and across borders"

    "can also be weaponized by freezing ID cards, numbers, or profiles[…]algorithmic profiling."

    "mandatory data collection and use can be used to single out political dissidents, human rights defenders, journalists, and other marginalised groups, leaving them vulnerable to disproportionate surveillance,censorship,[…]other forms of state violence.[…]often[…]little to no remedies available for those who suffer the effects of digital ID systems."

    "Mandatory requirements[…]have been shown to disproportionately harm marginalized and vulnerable[…]profound impact on the ability to enjoy fundamental human rights"

  7. "podle vyjádření advokáta Čižinského se soud při rozhodování o vzetí do vazby argumentovaným alibi obou obviněných vůbec nezabýval" -- "Z dokumentu přitom nevyplývá, že by Policie ČR jejich alibi prověřila"

    denikreferendum.cz/clanek/2387

    "V kauze zapálení budovy pardubické továrny na zbraně spočívá obvinění, pro které šel pan M. do vazby, na následujícím: Kolem Pardubic se v rozhodné době pohybovala tři „podezřelá“ auta a pan M. měl mít „vazby“ ke dvěma z těchto aut. Nic víc! Policie tvrdí, že má jeho DNA. Jenže kde našla toto DNA (při domovní prohlídce, kam mě jako obhájce nepustili)? Na sim-kartě, kterou bylo telefonováno do autopůjčovny jednoho z těch podezřelých aut, která se vyskytovala v okolí místa činu. A s druhým automobilem ho spojuje to, že majitelka automobilu má dceru, která pana M. sleduje na instagramu. Nic víc státní zastupitelství v návrhu na vazbu neuvedlo! Policie dnes disponuje — za pomoci umělé inteligence — takovým množstvím informací, že pro ni není problém najít nějaké propojení mezi čímkoli." -- "Advokát [...] uvádí: „Vzetí do vazby pana M. — stejně jako druhé obviněné — považuji za dané důkazní situace za skandální. Pan M. se domnívá, že jeho uvěznění je jasným případem rasismu a potlačování jeho svobody slova."

  8. @fabio Also due to these regulations I cannot buy antibiotic ointment when the Czech regime is depriving me of healthcare when I have an infected eczema and am afraid it will produce sepsis and I die, because antibiotic ointment ran out and when I call a dermatologist and tell I need it urgently she gives me an appointment 4 months (!!!) in the future!

    In a corrupt developing 3rd world dictatorship Cambodia it is possible to buy antibiotic ointments without prescription and also dermatologist wait there is only 7-10 days, not 4 months.

    I feel

    e x t r e m e l y s t r o n g c o n t e m p t

    towards the Czech regime.

  9. @grammargirl Official FAQ of Czech e-prescription (eRx): "Error, that the patient is dead, when he is standing in front of me in doctor's office"

    Digitalitarian digitatorship in practice.

    I feel

    e x t r e m e l y s t r o n g c o n t e m p t

    towards the Czech regime and towards the EU🇪🇺 regime when I am seeing this.

  10. Today's #Kafkaesque #nightmare: #Uber #Eats.

    I ordered & paid through the website. Half an hour later, it said the order was delivered, but their driver never came to my street.

    Self-help support told me to request a refund through the Uber Eats app.

    Problem: I don't own a cell phone.

    Chat #support agreed the driver did not follow procedures and I needed a #refund. Told me to use the app to request a refund. I can't! No matter how I explained, he just said (paraphrased) "too bad" until he ended the chat.

    I used the "No, you didn't solve the problem" survey option. Second rep did exactly the same as the first. I asked to please escalate, there must be a way for me to get a refund, since I was able to pay in the first place. Rep just repeated "use the app" and ended the chat.

    "No, you didn't solve the problem" again. Third rep, same as the first. Asked for #escalation, he said they can't do that. Here is his last reply, exact quote, before he ended the chat:

    > At the chat department, we do not have an escalation mechanism in our system
    > to connect to our next level and I will be your last level of support.
    >
    > I have already gone the distance that I could. I wish you didn't have to go through
    > this. Our goal is to resolve every issue; however, we have to make sure it always
    > follows our guidelines. I may need to end the chat now. Keep safe. Feel free to
    > contact us via the Help section of the app. Thank you for contacting Support.
