Workers for the program said they were directed to target homeless people and college students.

So google is racist then
There was an episode of The Good Wife about this subject.
On the program Chumhum was the defacto Google. They didn’t try to hide that.
But on the program Chumhum’s recognition program kept labeling/interpreting black people as “animals”. That prompted a lawsuit (on the program, not real life).
True. Suddenly I see how gullible my statement was. LOL picturing myself in a Google boardroom saying, "Let's just be honest about what we're doing and ask for volunteers." lol
Yep. And did they coerce anyone?
Too many people waking up each day determined to be offended by someone or something. Most are Democrats or liberals. Pathetic.
Google is a multi-BILLION-dollar company
And they’re cheaping out with lousy $5 gift certificates? Not even cash??
So Google not only is (a) spying on us (b) trying to suppress conservatives (c) trying to sway the next election, but now they’re also (d) such jerks they want to buy personal data for a cheap-ass $5 gift certificate
“customer-UNfriendly” should be their new motto
all those “woke” google doodles and it turns out they are screwing over black homeless people
Thanx. As Lily Tomlin said, “No matter how cynical I get, I just can’t keep up.”
Late word is that Google developers have made progress, but the software still IDs Northam as Al Jolson.
Hey, it’s $5 more than Facebook gives you.
Tout femme cete ca price.
Some settle for a Lincoln.
Ah—hadn’t actually read the article!
what is the difference between our technocrats and oligarchs and China?
