They DID reject my job application for an aerospace engineer but tbqh I do, in fact, not hold a masters degree in engineering
Must read, fam...

Earlier today, I watched a webinar on engineering ethics in the tech sector.

During this presentation, an attorney from a very powerful law firm gave a presentation about & took questions on a class action case they are doing that should be front page news.

Essentially, a number of engineers & scientists are going after "a group of tech companies and its leadership" for an obscene amount in damages, the amount not disclosed.

So, what happened?

Essentially, these folks were all prospective employees of said unnamed companies. As part of their interview selection process, these people, all of whom were post-graduate level or higher, were asked to provide 'fully functional' code, solving 'sample problems' provided to them, under the agreement that the code fully belonged to the applicant only and used solely for interview purposes.

They were interviewed, but never hired. (You see where this is going)

However, it was discovered over time that, for these former applicants, their code ended up being used by these companies, ranging from advanced data analysis scripts all the way to highly specialized software embedded within cars, AI LLM's and flight hardware, all actively being used. And, according to this attorney, indesputable evidence verifying these shameful deeds has been brought forth.

Despite the overall 'shock' of many joined to the webinar, significantly more participants expressed the total lack of surprise, citing widespread accounts of such tactics being actively & shamelessly employed at numerous techbro companies like X, Tesla, SpaceX, Meta, Amazon & Google, even (((startups))) like Palantir, OpenAI, Joby, Archer & Anduril among several others. It was widely speculated in the concurrent group chat that Elon Musk and his cult of companies are the subject of the lawsuit that was presented.

Using massive pools of applicants to solve current, critical scientific & engineering problems. All, without the added hassle of paying them for it.

It's literally reverse industrial espionage, but the victim isn't the company. It's you. They're stealing from you. And, it's probably how Musk and others compensate for intellectual gaps in their workforces, given their rabid devotion to the use of subhuman jeet slavery. And they're laughing all the way to the bank.

Dirty. Disgusting. Jewish. Rotten to the core. And it's precisely where we are at.

The fucked up part is if I (or anyone else here on the fedi) did something like this and got called out for it, we'd get sued into oblivion and lose everything.

EVERYTHING!

Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos & Mark Zuckerberg et al are all pathetic individuals deserving of our most special contempt, void of any integrity, let alone any possible semblance of honor.

They're nothing more than common thieves & hustle artists whose mark is the world. Albert R. Broccoli could not have imagined such conniving villains who only James Bond could take down.

If this is the best that this country's so-called 'leaders' want us to believe that this place can do; if this is how 'American Innovation' & 'American Exceptionalism' is defined today, then this place deserves to burn to the ground and then some, full fucking stop.

It never had to be this way.

We deserve so much better.
When I die, and instead of going to into an isekai where Europe is shitskin-free, the celestial bureaucracy spins the wheel of dharma, and I am reincarnated as a hamster in a soylennial home of amerifats.

Fun fact: In the Matrix, Neo's passport expires September 11, 2001.

A little update: So they ordered him to a mandatory meeting the next day and he just straight up didn't come in :pepe_shiteatinggrin:
