DepYou could attempt the non-selfish kind and just donate it all to an independent health/rescue org like Red Cross/Red Crescent.

You could also go the kinda-selfish route like Alfred Nobel, known in his time as the merchant of death. Make an elaborate award&grant giving scheme for exceptional contributions to society in a variety of fields; boosting said contributions for many years. Would only recommend this route if you've got more than enough coin to spare, as the overhead of ensuring ethical operation is significant.

If you've got a house, you could transfer ownership to a trust/foundation/housing coop, to make it available for living at below market price.

I'd donate to various free software & open hardware projects important to societal improvement; like Mozilla, certain fediverse projects, PostmarketOS, Fairphone, etc. Also anarchist orgs.

Hello, fellow SN enjoyer! That's where I first heard it as well

They were revealed to brag to ad sellers about having access to tons of sensitive information about its customers, by spying on e.g. ambient conversations through smartphones and smart TVs, right?

Or was it them who requested customers install an xfinity root certificate on their phone, without telling it would enable xfinity to man-in-the-middle all their internet activity?

Funny, it's almost like fucking around with peoples' privacy and security inevitably leads to finding out

Great article! Kudos to the white hat hackers who pulled off the repair, and the company that hired them. We should be able to fix our own stuff, always!

I'm a user on https://slrpnk.net and thoroughly enjoy my home feed. Climate, nature, solarpunk futurism, memes, soil, activism, creative pursuits, anarchism, different kinds of liberation.

If you do decide to move; I'd be pleased to have you as part of my home instance

That's unfortunate. I'm not sure what the situation is at your location, but here in Norway literally every type of work from cleaning shores, through industry and even CEOs, have their respective union. So there might be a relevant union for your workplace, still. Safety for the employees lies in numbers.

In the short term though, I'd recommend reaching out to a local/regional union-of-interest, like a "disabilities-in-the-workplace" watchdog organization.

Your boss&CO sound willing to infantilize you, if it becomes a case, so solid evidence of their conduct is important. though let's hope your emails solved it, and makes them realize their wrongs.

Keep recordings of all work meetings the coming year

  • keep your phone in your pocket, make sure your phone mic is pointed in the right direction, and test sound quality beforehand. Garble is not useful for anything.
  • if possible, you should have a 'panic' button sequence on your phone, to hide/stop recording.
  • do not admit you have faults not caused by your condition, on tape!
  • You have the right to know who will be part of a meeting, and what the meeting is about, beforehand. They can still spring a meeting on you, if they don't care.

Are you in a union with your coworkers?

If so, if you get called into any (non-open-to-everyone) meetings the coming weeks/months, make sure your union rep is right there with you.

If not, you should unionize

How do you spell force majeure?

No worries, I just browsed as [anonymous] for a few hours. Appreciate the effort y'all put into our little solarpunk corner of the internet😊

 

Did you pay?
